Mobile Concrete Batching Plants- Specifications

Concrete production, at construction sites, plays veru significant role in execution of projects. Employment of concrete production unit at construction sites depends on the nature & quantity of concrete required at site. A few important things we shoul keep in mind while selecting a concrete production unit for our project are mentioned below:

A) Capacity of Concrete production unit : Amount of concrete required in a construction project is pre-calculated. As per the demand of concrete, whether on daily basis or monthly basis, it is adviced to choose the right capacity of concrete batching plant. Concrete plants are available in wide range of capacity starts from 15cuM/hr to 120cuM/hr.  

B) Intial Investment Costs : This is the prime factor to be kept in mind while choosing a concrete plant for costruction site. Product shoul be worthful & having value for money.  

C) Operating Costs : As per the demand of concrete at site, we should calculate the production cost & operating cost of concrete plant. This would helps in tracking the overall cost of producing & supply of concrete at site. 

D) Ease of operation : Concrete plant should be operator friendly so that it would be easier for operator to amend the concrete design mix according to the requirement of project.

E) Service & Maintainance support : This is the key factor while selecting a concrete plant. Troubleshoots & maintainance are general property of any machine & it can happen any time. Prompt service support from manufacturers end is required at site in order to maintain the stream of concrete production.

There are two main categories of Concerte Batching Plants A) Stationary type Concrete batching Plants B) Mobile Type concrete batching plants. 

Stationary Concrete Plants are planned to installed at construction sites where project duration is large say for a few years. Heavy civil foundations are needed for installation of stationary type concrete plants. Mixed concrete is supplied to concrete landing sites with concrete transit mixers or with concrete pumps.

 Mobile concrete batching plants : This a a special type of arrangement done in order to fabricate the concrete plant on a movable chassis. The whole concrete plant is designed having material storage bins, material conveying belt , mixer unit & all other necessary accessories fitted on wheel mounted chassis. These plants are easy to relocated with tractors as prime mover. Benefits of Mobile concrete batching plants are listed  below:

A) Compact design : These plants have a compact structrual design which helps it to install at congested sites also. Storage bins/compartment, Belt conveyor & mixer unit are so well fabricated in order to frame in a single chassis design.

B) Nominal Civil foundation works: These plants are having ready to concrete type concept. No heavy civil foundation work is required at sites for installation of mobile concrete plants.

C) Ease tof Shifthing : Wheel mounted chassis provide ease of shifting with tractor at construction sites. It is even more easy to move these concrete plants on road. Best & effective use at running or scattered sites like canal lining projects, minor bridge constructions, concrete road construcion projects.

D) Ease of operations : These concrete plants are having automatic controls & operations. Mobile concrete plants are operator friendly & provides ease of operations.

Specifications of Mobile Concrete Batching Plant:

   E) Availablity : Mobile concrete batching plants are available in wide capacity range of 15 M³/hr, 20 M³/hr & 30 M³/hr with all type of mixer units i.e Reversible Drum, Pan & Twin Shaft Mixers.
