Matcon IBC Blender

Matcon specialises in providing lean powder handling solutions using intermediate bulk container (IBC) technology. Its users have adopted lean solutions through keeping production efficiency and flexibility high while minimising any scrap or waste, thereby reducing the cost per kilogram of finished product.

Mix any recipe at any time with the Matcon IBC Blender. Mixing of ingredients takes place directly within the IBC using 360° tumble-blending. Changeover is instantaneous, producing high OEE (overall equipment effectiveness) as cleaning occurs offline. High shear blending with the supplementary Intensifier extends the mixing capabilities to handle liquid additions and single stage mixing.

This is suitable for the bakery sector, with its single-stage blending enabling a reduced cycle time and improving productivity.

Within other food sectors, the product enables the handling of sticky powders or liquid additions. Furthermore, it means that a homogenous mix can be achieved when blending the smallest of ingredient inclusions - often less than 0.1%.
