It’s easy to disassemble, transport and assemble again. In 15 – 20 days we assemble your
plant in a new site producing concrete, saving you time and money.
Water is then added to the mix in the truck and mixed during transport to the
job site.
• CENTRAL MIX PLANT
Central mix plant combines all of the above ingredients + water at a central location.
The final product is then transported to the job site.
Central mix plants differ from ready mix plants in that they offer the end user a much more
consistent product, since all the ingredient mixing is done in a central location and is computer-
assisted to ensure uniformity of product.
A temporary batch plant can be constructed on a large job site. A concrete plant becomes central
mix with the addition of a concrete mixer.
Features :-
• AGGREGATE BATCHERS :-
The aggregate batching system includes aggregate supply
system, weighing system and electrical control system. The
feeding device is driven by conveyor belt.
• CONVEYORS :-
• CONTROL SYSTEM :-
The 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.
•SILOS :-
Provides bolted type and welded type storage silo in various capacities and
dimensions.
Bolted cement silo with special design can minimize the transport cost.
nominal capacity of cement = 10 to 75 tons and are also available till 120 tons
nominal capacity of fly ash = 40 to 60 tons
•DUST COLLECTORS
Used to minimize environmental pollution

APPLICATION
Concrete batching plants are widely used to produce various kinds of concrete including
• Quaking concrete = concrete which is used to make massive walls , abutments etc.
• Hard concrete
•Suitable for large or medium scale building works, road and bridge works and precast concrete
plants, etc.
Features :-
Detachable triangle blades for good mixing performance.
Option of one or two holes in the drum for easy cleaning work.
HOPPER
Wide mouth hopper specially designed to receive sticky ready mix
concrete in large quantities with ease.
Layout of hopper steps and handrails are made user friendly for standing at ease
for cleaning purpose ensuring better safety .Side steps made from rust proof
steel are attached as a standard equipment with stripes for anti slip and fender
for easy movement
SCOOP
Scoop is made from Abrasion resistant steel for durability and weight
reduction Instead of traditional MS thick plates with liners.
CHUTE
Easy to use chute made of high abrasion resistant steel is provided with
two options of detachable chute extents on for smooth flow of discharged
concrete.
TYPES OF MIXERS
STANDARD TRANSIT MIXER
• It is a concrete delivery vehicle used for jobs where large pour
volumes are required.
• Transit Mixer Trucks come in a variety of sizes, ranging from 2
• The volumetric concrete mixer also eliminates the need for part load
charges and problems with over or under-ordering.
• Mixes and grades can be switched from one customer to the next or even halfway through a job if
necessary.
WORKING OF MIXERS
• The revolving drum is used to mix all the components of concrete.
• Inside the mixer, an operator feeds data into the mixer and several
augers feed aggregate and cement together.
• Water is added to the mix and larger augers blend the components
and the number of revolutions should be 70-100 rpm.
• A series of blades or a screw powered by the motor keeps the aggregate, water and cement in
constant motion, this keeps the premixed concrete from setting.
• The spinning drum keeps the dry ingredients, aggregate and cement mixing during most of the
trip. The speed of the drum should be 12-14 rpm.
• The direction of the drum's spin squishes the wet concrete into the back of the mixer .
• When the mixer arrives at the site, the driver reverses the direction of the machine to push it out of
the mixer to the chute.
• The concrete reach the site within 1 1/2hr or 2hr depending on the atmospheric temp.
CAPACITY OF AVAILABLE TRANSIT MIXERS varies from 6 cum to 10 cum,
choice is available as per site requirements and concrete production rate.
ADVANTAGES OF MIXERS
• A transit mixer provides a fast and easy way to produce concrete mixtures thereby giving an easy
access for concrete mixture forming to the construction contractors when it is necessary.
• It fastens up the tasks of concrete production at sites and eliminates the problems of inefficiency
in mixing, material wastage, concrete production and delivery delays at the construction sites.
• The transit mixers can be transported all around a job site and therefore allow the easier, faster
and more convenient concrete production and placement at the site.
DISADVANTAGES OF MIXERS
• Once the last of the concrete trickles out of the drum or dribbles out of the pump, the truck isn't
empty.
• A small amount of concrete always remains inside the truck, especially in drum mixers.
• The drum mixer can be pressure washed or water can run through the drum while it rotates.
• Therefore it is usually carried out with the help of hammer & water. But some concrete is always
left. And it dries and over time this becomes a problem, reducing the volume of the mixer and its
capacity.
• The concrete will build to a point where the only viable alternative is mechanical
removal.
Q1. if lead = 1.5 km
quantity of concrete in 1 month = 50,000 cubic meter
Then what is the capacity of batching plant & no. of transit mixer required ?
Q2. What if there is no provision or movable facility of transit mixer then what we can use instead
of transit mixer ?
