Maguire Products, Inc., the global leader in gravimetric blending, debuted the WSB 280MP at K 2025, its first gravimetric blender to feature eight fully removable hoppers. This breakthrough modular design eliminates the need for multiple feeders, dramatically expands dosing flexibility, and accelerates material cleanouts and changeovers.

“Processors no longer need to compromise between speed and precision,” said Frank Kavanagh, Global Vice President, Sales & Marketing at Maguire Products. “The WSB 280MP provides a wider dosing range, faster changeovers, and easier cleaning—all backed by the proven reliability and accuracy of Maguire blending technology.”

 Removing Limitations, Expanding Capabilities
 The WSB 280MP reflects Maguire’s ongoing commitment to blending innovation by eliminating the need for separate feeders, as its removable hoppers replace costly dosing equipment—reducing both complexity and footprint. With an expanded dosing range, the removable hoppers offer a significant advantage over the use of feeders. The system can handle everything from low-level colorant and additive additions to higher-volume requirements, providing processors with unmatched versatility and cost savings. Changeovers are faster and simpler, as hoppers can be swapped instantly for new materials or colors without interrupting the production process. At the same time, cleaning is easier and safer, minimizing the risk of cross-contamination and improving operator ergonomics. All of this is delivered with Maguire’s hallmark 0.1 of 1% of setpoint accuracy and backed by the industry’s leading five-year warranty —providing processors with lasting confidence in their investment.

 Built for Modern Processing
 As processors face increasing demands for shorter production runs, faster color changes, and growing sustainability goals, the WSB 280MP delivers unmatched flexibility. Its modular hopper concept allows blending systems to be configured to exact production needs—future-proofing investments while minimizing downtime and waste.
