Components of a concrete batching plant

Concrete batching plant, also known as concrete mixture plant, is a combined device used for mixing batch plant concrete. Concrete mixer batching plant has high degree of mechanization and automation with high productivity. Excellent batching plant manufacturer can guarantee the quality of concrete and save the cement or concrete used in large quantity.

The main work of concrete batch mix plant is to mix cementing material, sand, lime, coal and other raw materials. After a series of procedures, the raw materials are made into batch plant concrete which can be used as wall material in construction. Since batch plant has been put into use, it has been playing an important role in building market at home and abroad.
Components of a concrete batch plant:

(1)Aggregate Batching Machine

The aggregate batching system of ready mix concrete machine include aggregate supply system, weighing system and electrical control system. The feeding device is driven by belt. The batching system is controlled by sensor.

(2)Mixing System

The mixing machine of concrete mixing plants can be divided into forced concrete mixer and self loading concrete mixer according to mixing mode. Forced concrete mixer is the mainstream of mixing plants at home and abroad now. Concrete batching plants usually adopt JS series twin shaft concrete mixer as the main mixer. Twin shaft concrete mixer belongs to forced concrete mixer and has stronger mixing effect and higher mixing efficiency than self-falling concrete mixer. It can be used to mix hard-dry concrete and light aggregate concrete.

(4)Electrical Weighing System

The material weighing system of batch plants is the key component which affects the quality and production cost of concrete. The electrical control system of our concrete batch plant can control two sets of separate mixer, cement weighing, water weighing, cement weighing and a series of aggregate batching system. The aggregate batching system can automatic control the batching process, connected to high reliable PLC and industry computer. All the weighing electronic scales of our batch plants are computer controlled.

(5) Control System

The control system is the central nervous system of concrete mixture plant or cement mixing plant.The control system of our concrete batch plants for sale has different functions or preparations according to different requirements and different sizes of the batch plants. The PLC programmable controller can control the production process with high reliability and stability. It can control the unloading ingredients, mixing and automatic control of the whole process of the concrete. Moreover, It also can dynamic display the process of weighing and discharging.

Classification Of Concrete Mixer Batching Plant

Concrete mixer batching plant is divided into stationary concrete batching plant and mobile concrete batching plant according to the design. This is also the first distinction standard about the classification of a lot of concrete batching plant manufacturers in the production.

Our batch plants for sale can be divided into skip hoist type batching plant and belt conveyor type concrete plant according to different conveying methods. Our batching plants for sale can be divided into wet concrete batching plant and dry mix concrete plant.

According to production ability and scale, our concrete batching plants for sale can be divided into mini concrete batching plant, small concrete batching plant and large concrete batching plant. As one of the professional concrete batch plant manufacturers, we also have high quality central mix concrete plant, ready mix concrete plant and precast concrete batch plants for sale.
