PATTERN STRUCTURE
2 - 2 x 1 (Forward Loads)
10 - 10 x 3
13 - 13 x 3
Zero Loads are ignored going forward and reverse.
14 - 14 x 2 (Reverse Loads)
13 - 13 x 4
12 - 12 x 4
11 - 11 x 2
2 - 2 x 1
Each load can quickly be condensed to a total number of boards by referring to the Board
Chart found at the end of this section. Using the Board Chart we can determine that a load
or stream of oil from 2 - 2 covers 37 boards.
After converting all the loads the numbers become very simple.
When all these loads are multiplied and added together, the result is the total number of
boards that are covered by a stream of oil.
TOTAL PATTERN BOARDS
37 x 1 = 37
21 x 3 = 63
15 x 3 = 45
13 x 2 = 26
15 x 4 = 60
17 x 4 = 68
19 x 2 = 38
37 x 1 = 37
In our example, there are 145 boards covered during Forward travel and 229 boards covered
during the Reverse travel. This total number (374) can be multiplied by the pump setting (50
µl) to determine the exact amount of oil used when conditioning with this pattern.

x 50 microliters
18,700 microliters
The total amount is 18,700 microliters. To convert this to milliliters the number has to be
divided by 1,000.
18,700/1,000 = 18.7
