What is mobile batching plant?
A mobile concrete batching plant is a portable and efficient solution designed for the production of concrete. It’s easy to move and set up anywhere because of its mobility.
Exploring the Essential Components
A mobile concrete batching plant is designed for the production of a high-quality concrete mix by combining various aggregates, cement, water, and admixtures. Each part plays a vital role in this process.
The unit allows the entire plant to be towed like a trailer. A standard towing unit of a mobile concrete batching plant has a chassis, tires, a tow hook, and brakes. The chassis supports it firmly, the tires make it move, the tow hook links it to a vehicle, and the brakes keep it safe while moving.
The towing unit of a mobile concrete batching plant offers excellent flexibility and convenience. Rapid installation and dismantling significantly save time and costs.
- Aggregate Batching System (Batcher): This system is used for the precise formulation of various types of aggregates (such as sand, gravel, etc.), ensuring the quality and strength of the concrete. It usually includes multiple bins for batching, with each material batched separately to ensure accuracy.
- Aggregate Conveying System (Conveyor Belt): After batching, the aggregates are transported to the mixer via conveyor belts. Belt conveyor has characteristics of high productivity, long conveying distance, stable performance, and low maintenance cost.
- Powder Storage System (Cement Silo): Stores powder materials like cement and fly ash in sealed tanks to keep them dry and maintain quality. Mobile concrete batching plants often use detachable silos that can be easily transported and set up at the site. Aimix cement silo can display the location and quality of the material, which is really convenient to operate for users.
- Powder Conveying System (Screw Conveyor): Screw conveyors are commonly used equipment for conveying powders. Aimix screw conveyor can continuously deliver the material by its blades in a rotation, which has a good performance to transport the material.
Aimix weighing system not only provides accurate measurements and simple operation but also supports centralized control. It is equipped with high-precision sensors to ensure the highest accuracy.
The mixer of the AJY-mobile batching plant can finish mixing for dry hard, semi-dry hard, plastic, and all kinds of concrete. The equipment not only has high mixing efficiency but also boasts a long service life.
Uses compressed air as a power source to control various pneumatic actuators in the concrete mixing plant, such as opening and closing the butterfly valve of the cement silo, ensuring the efficient operation of the equipment.
Aimix mobile batching plant adopts a PLC control system. The dynamic panel can clearly display the operation of the various components, which can store contrast, output, and other data, print, and output statistical reports, and complete the scheduled tank production.
Understanding the components of a mobile concrete batching plant is crucial for comprehending its overall functionality and operation.
Working Process Of Mobile Concrete Batching Plant
The working process of a mobile concrete mixing plant is coherent and efficient. Let’s take a closer look at the working principle of a mobile concrete batching plant.
- Aggregate Batching: Based on the concrete mix requirement, the control system automatically controls the batcher to take out the corresponding proportion of aggregates (such as sand and gravel) from the storage bins. These are then transported to the weighing system via conveyor belts.
- Preparation of Powder Materials and Water: At the same time the screw conveyor transports cement from the cement silo into the weighing system in predetermined proportions. Water and admixtures are also accurately measured according to set ratios and kept ready for use.
- Material Mixing: Once all materials are weighed, they are conveyed into the mixer. Inside the mixer, aggregates, cement, water, and admixtures are thoroughly mixed together, forming concrete.
- Concrete Transport: The mixed concrete is discharged through the discharge outlet located beneath the mixer. It can be directly loaded into a concrete mixer truck or pumped to specific locations using pump trucks.
