Other Equipment Selection for Concrete Batching Plant
1. Aggregate Batching SystemSince silo loading is affected by auxiliary equipment and site, the silo volume should be larger.The volume of a single silo in a concrete mixing plant is generally larger than 20m³. If a belt conveyor or concrete silo is used for loading, it can be even larger to reduce the floor space of the stockpile yard. The volume of a single silo in a mixing plant is generally greater than 50m³. Concrete mixing plants are generally batched by batching stations, which have two structural forms. The all-steel batching station uses ground batching, which is easy to maintain and drain, but difficult to load. Loaders or belt conveyors are often used for loading. The silo of the steel-concrete structure batching station is a concrete structure. The silo is ground-type, which is convenient for loading and easy to keep warm, but difficult to maintain. Loaders, bulldozers or dump trucks can be used to load directly. 2. Aggregate Lifting SystemGenerally, belt conveyors and hoppers are used for lifting. Belt conveyors have high production efficiency, reliable performance, are easy to seal,...
