The IMF roaster can be operated by one or two people. You can roast tons of coffee, batch after batch, with this machine with even consistency, regardless of whether it’s the first of last batch of the day. The touch-screen PLC  automatically controls every stage of the roasting process with the touch of a finger, from loading green bean silos to roasting, cooling and de-stoning. 

The secret of the machine’s consistency is its unique Vortex and Equalizer roasting technology, guaranteeing precision batch roasting. With the management software, air temperature and air volume are accurately controlled by the PLC controller. To ensure consistent roasts, the Vortex system mixes ambient air into the hot airstream before it enters the roaster through an electronically operated modulating valve. The Equalizer ensures that the same volume of air enters the roaster. This feature is designed to surround the perforated alloy drum surface, giving even heat distribution across the entire surface of each coffee bean and eliminating any temperature fluctuation inside the drum. Temperature and air volume can be adjusted according to the coffee blend or individual origin using the PLC touch-screen. IMF’s technology saves at least 30 per cent in gas consumption. It serves two purposes : it burns off harmful gas entering the atmosphere and heats the roaster at the same time. IMF roaster use only one burner chamber, located to the side of the roaster. As the coffee is roasted, emissions leave the roaster through a steel duct into the burner chamber to incinerate any smoke and chaff resulting in zero emissions. A portion of the heat in the burner chamber which would otherwise be released into the atmosphere, is instead ducted  through a stainless steel duct back into the roaster. Thus this is a Recirculation System )

IMF’s integrated roaster, chaff collector, afterburner, destoner and loader results in the smallest footprint on the market.  This in turn makes more efficient use of space and minimizes real estate costs.
