IMF RM480 Industrial Coffee Roaster – New to Order
SHP is pleased to be the UK agent for I.M.F Srl, manufacturers of advanced industrial roasting systems built at their factory in Occhiobello, Italy.
IMF industrial roasters are designed for high‑volume production, with a strong focus on process optimisation, cost reduction, emissions control and energy efficiency. All IMF models use a hot‑air recirculation system that passes through a single heating chamber with a dual function. As a result, the roaster delivers the energy required for the roasting process while reducing emissions at the same time.
VORTEX Air‑Recirculation Technology
Thanks to the patented VORTEX system, hot air is blended with fresh air to achieve precise temperature control inside the roasting drum. This ensures a consistent and repeatable roasting process.
The internal air‑partition conveyance system distributes heat evenly throughout the roasting chamber. Consequently, each coffee bean receives uniform heat transfer, supporting a gentle and controlled roast.
In addition, IMF’s integrated roasting software allows operators to preset and manage key parameters such as airflow and drum speed. This provides highly accurate batch repeatability and stable production performance.
