Abstract: Computer-implemented method to control a dispensing machine configured to deliver fluid products inside a receptacle (118) and comprising a plurality of containing units (111), each containing a respective fluid product, one or more storage zones (128) of the containing units (111) and a dispensing zone (115) wherein it is provided to temporarily and selectively locate at least one sub-assembly of containing units (111) containing the fluid products to be delivered in a dispensing cycle, making use of a computing device (161) comprising at least one processor (164), data storage means (162) with a formulation database, an input device (163), and a display device (159), wherein the control method comprises determining the disposition of the plurality of containing units (111) in the dispensing zone (115) and in the storage zone(s) (128), receiving, via the input device, a target formulation, selected by the user, and identifying, via the processor, from the formulation database an associated plurality of fluid products contained in respective containing units (111) of the sub-assembly, each to be delivered according to a predetermined quantity to obtain said target formulation. The computer-implemented control method also comprises displaying a graphic representation of the layout of the dispensing machine with the dispensing zone (15) and the storage zone(s) (28), which respectively reflects the disposition of the sub-assembly of containing units (111) disposed in the dispensing zone (115) and in the storage zone(s) (128), and graphically highlighting, in the graphic representation, at least the sub-assembly of containing units (11) from which the selected target formulation is to be produced by means of signaling means so as to facilitate their identification by the user and thus provide guidance to the user for displacing of one or more than one containing unit(s) (111) from the storage zone(s) (128) to the dispensing zone (115), or vice versa, if required for the production of the target formulation.

Abstract: A Container is disclosed with a stirrer device suitable to be installed on machines for dispensing fluid products. The container comprises a tank with a particular configuration defined by two cylinders each having a respective longitudinal axis, wherein the distance between two of the longitudinal axes is less than the diameter of a cylinder, and in which two stirrer units are comprised, coaxial to the cylinders of the tank. The stirrer units have elements that have a radial dimension a little less than the radius of the cylinders and are disposed along the substantial entirety of the longitudinal extension of shafts rotating axially, said shafts not having around them a zone not spatially affected by a stirrer element attached to said corresponding shaft.
