Application and Advantages
Concrete batching machines are widely used in construction, road, bridge and other engineering fields, and it is one of the indispensable equipment of concrete mixing plant.
- Automatic and semi-automatic ingredients can greatly improve production efficiency and reduce manual operations.
- The accurate measurement of concrete batching machine can ensure the stability of concrete quality, to meet the requirements of the project.
In this way, production costs can be reduced by optimized ratio and reducing waste.
Main Parts of Concrete Batcher
Usually, concrete batch machine is consisted of measurement system, conveying system and control system.
- Aggregate scale
The main part of measurement System is the aggregate scale, used for accurate raw materials measurement. The scales are usually electronic or mechanical scales, with high precision and stability.
- Conveyor
Conveying system transfers the measured raw materials to the main mixer. The delivery mode may include belt conveyor, screw conveyor or bucket elevator, etc.
- Control system
Control system of concrete batcher is the core component of the whole batching machine, which is used to control the operation of the batching machine and the measurement of raw materials. The control system usually adopts the advanced control technology such as PLC (programmable logic controller) or microcontroller, which has the characteristics of high degree of automation and simple operation.
Operational Principle
The working principle of concrete batching mainly includes:
- Setting ration parameters
Operators shall set the ratio parameters of various raw materials in the control system according to the requirements.
- Measurement
The control system measures various raw materials according to the set ratio parameters.
- Delivery
The measured various raw materials are delivered to the mixer through the conveying system.
- Mixing
The mixer blends raw materials to produce concrete that meets project requirements.
To sum up, concrete batching machine is an important equipment in concrete mixing plant, which is of great significance to improve the production efficiency, ensure the quality of concrete and reduce the production cost.
