High Shear Intensifier: Power Tool for Full-Scale Blending

Presenting the High Shear Intensifier, set to redefine IBC blending. This powerful addition dramatically improves the blending process, introducing the dynamics of high-shear mixing. The result? A more cohesive blend with the added possibility of single-stage mixing. This tool is more than just a game changer; it represents a complete paradigm shift for battery manufacturers delving into powder fibrillation.

At Matcon, we understand this, which is why we introduce Liquid Addition, an automatic system enabling the injection of liquids directly into the powder mix within the IBC. It's a paradigm shift, eliminating the need for manual intervention and capitalising on operational efficiency.

The Liquid Addition Advantage
