Flexible powder recipe formulation system

Streamline your batch production with efficient, dust-tight formulation and blending of powders directly into Intermediate Bulk Containers, ensuring quick transitions and minimal downtime.

Streamlines Powder Recipe Formulation and Integration

The Matcon Powder Recipe Formulation Systems are engineered to optimize the preparation and integration of powder recipes across various industries including pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and sports nutrition. This system excels by using Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) to enable batch formulation offline, ensuring a reduction in production downtime with fully contained transfers that eliminate cross-contamination risks. Capable of managing components ranging from major to micro ingredients, it provides reliable batch traceability through automated check weighing and material tracking. Its flexible design integrates seamlessly with existing production lines, allowing for quick changeovers and high throughput, making it ideal for high-capacity operations such as protein powder and battery component production. Matcon systems offer hygienic, easy-to-clean solutions that align with industry compliance and quality standards, supported by custom configuration and engineering support to meet specific processing needs.
