Batching plant equipment is a professional mechanical equipment used for the production of concrete, which is widely used in construction, roads, bridges and other engineering projects. A complete set of plant equipment usually includes the following main parts:
Batching system: aggregate silo: used to store sand and gravel aggregates of different specifications.
Aggregate scale: Accurately measure the weight of aggregates.
Cement silo: stores bulk cement.
Cement scale: Accurately measure the amount of cement used.
Additive scale: used to measure additives in liquid or powder form.
Batching hopper: Put the various ingredients in proportion and put them in the mixer.
Mixing system: mixer: is the core equipment of the mixing plant, according to different needs, it can be twin shaft mixer, planetary mixer or drum mixer, etc.
Mixing drum: used to mix aggregates, cement and water.
Discharging device: The mixed concrete is discharged from the mixing drum.
Control system: PLC control cabinet: the brain of the whole batching plant, responsible for coordinating the work of all parts.
Operator's station: The operator operates and monitors through buttons and displays on the operator's station.
Sensors and actuators: used to detect the status of the device and execute control commands.
Conveying system: Belt conveyor: used to convey aggregate from the aggregate bin to the mixer.
Screw conveyor: used to convey powders, such as cement and fly ash.
Water supply system: water tank: storage of mixing water.
Water Pump: Transports water from the tank to the mixer.
Water hose and sprinkler: Make sure the water is evenly added to the mixture.
Electrical system: transformer and distribution cabinet: provide stable power for the plant**.
Cables & Wiring: Connect the individual electrical components.
Safety system: Safety warning signs: remind operators to pay attention to safety.
Emergency stop button: Quickly stop the operation of the device in case of emergency.
Environmental protection system: dust collection system: reduce dust pollution.
Wastewater treatment system: The generated wastewater is treated to meet environmental protection requirements.
The workflow of the plant equipment is roughly as follows:
The aggregate enters the belt conveyor through the feeder under the aggregate bin and is then conveyed to the aggregate scale for weighing.
At the same time, the cement is fed into the cement scale through the screw conveyor for measurement.
The additives are measured by the additive scale as needed and fed into the blender together with the water.
After all the materials are mixed evenly in the mixer, concrete is formed.
The mixed concrete is discharged by the unloading device, and then it can be transported to the construction site by concrete mixer truck or other means.
In short, maintenance and upkeep are also the key to the normal operation of the plant equipment. Regular inspection and replacement of worn parts, removal of accumulated dust, lubrication of moving parts, and calibration of the metering system are all important measures to ensure the long-term stable operation of the plant.
