How Matcon used a closed manufacturing process to minimize risk during the..
Reduce waiting times spent in formulating powder recipes for batch processing.
Recipes can be formulated directly into Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) offline and added into the flow of batch processing as required.
Batch traceability is possible with check weighing capabilities and material tracking.
Our recipe formulation systems prevent a slowing down of production flow.

Formulate recipe batches directly into IBCs using the Matcon IBC Filling system.
Formulate recipes offline away from the blending operation. Directly tip ingredients into IBCs in a contained manner, reducing the amount of dust compared to filling traditional fixed mixer systems.
The fully contained transfer of material into the IBC reduces the occurrence of spilled or wasted material.
An efficient, dust-tight way to fill IBCs quickly and efficiently from sacks.
Bring into the batch processing flow when ready.
Hygienic, easy to clean design for fast changeovers.
Dust-tight formulation of recipe batches without risk of contamination.
A fully contained transfer of materials means that no product is spilled or leaked, thereby removing the risk of cross-contamination.
Hygienic, easy to clean design giving fast, efficient recipe preparation. High manufacturing efficiency rates as IBCs are formulated off-line and rapidly brought into blending without causing mixer down-time.
Traceability is achievable with check weighing and material tracking.
Full recipe formulation is possible including minor and micro ingredient additions.
Flatbed vibratory sieve & magnetic grate catch 'tramp' material.
Optional weigh platforms offer check weighing facilities.
De-coupled operation for maximum flexibility.
The Matcon system is based on using Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) to transport powders between manufacturing steps and to blend powders to a homogenous mix.
Our IBC filling equipment is extensively used in the following industries:
An accurate and cost-effective, flexible recipe batch processing system for larger throughput requirements.
Ideal for reducing the time spent in weighing and for minimising the risk of human error in formulation.
The Flexi-Batch formulation system comprises a number of ‘ingredient’ containers located on a framework, with ‘batch’ containers traveling below collecting the ingredients according to programmed batch recipes.
If you have a large number of ingredients to assemble for each recipe, you can reduce the amount of time spent in weighing and batching by automating the process.
This also reduces the risk of error in measuring or adding ingredients.
Configurations are dependent upon throughput rates, the number of raw ingredients & accuracy levels required.
Automated preparation of ingredients from 10-1000kg.
Ability to deliver multiple recipes from one formulation street as contained transfers possible.
Full batch traceability and security.
Achieve accurate formulation of recipe batches and fast replenishment of ingredients.
A fully contained transfer of materials means that no product is spilled or leaked, thereby removing the risk of cross-contamination.
Flexibility to deliver multiple recipes from one formulation street.
Reduce the time spent weighing ingredients and adding them to the mixer or container.
Full recipe formulation is possible including majors, minors and micro ingredient additions all on the same line.
High manufacturing efficiency rates as IBCs are formulated off-line and rapidly brought into blending without causing mixer down-time.
We specialise in providing complete materials handling solutions in the Food, Nutrition, Pharmaceutical, Beverages, Sports Nutrition, Nutraceuticals and Chemical sectors.
We’re not just an IBC provider, but a true partner helping you accomplish the right system for your needs.
Automatically dose micro & minor ingredients quickly and accurately.
An ideal way to reduce complexity and manpower requirements by decreasing the number of operator weighments required for each recipe batch.
The Flexibatch Micro system comprises a number of ingredient containers on a carousel, which rotates and dispenses the desired amount of product into the batch container.
Multiple raw ingredients are stored in easily detachable polyethylene bottles held on a rotating carousel. Automatically dispensing micro & minor ingredients from a pre-programmed recipe.
The module comprises:
Formulate the micro & minor ingredients off-line. Lessen the risk of human error in weighing by using automation.
The system allows operators to focus on more challenging and rewarding tasks and remove risk for human errors - ultimately securing quality and brand reputation.
Originally designed for the Bakery industry, this micro dosing module now has a wider portfolio of uses and can be deployed for any minor or micro ingredients.
Using Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) to transport powders between manufacturing steps and to blend powders to a homogenous mix.
Matcon IBCs are efficient, dust-tight powder containers, manufactured to the highest standards for all industry applications.
Formulate powder recipes directly to IBCs with accurate, automated filling and add into your batch processing flow as required.
Mix powder recipes of all sizes any time using an IBC Tumble Blender. Improve loading times, cleaning and remove bottlenecks.
Over the years we have seen a wide range of different powder types and production issues that our Cone Valve technology has been able to overcome. This gives us the confidence to believe we can handle any challenge you wish to put to us.
