In the present age, we have seen a significant and continuous improvement in construction materials. But, this advancement is not confined to construction materials only, as a considerable improvement in construction machinery is also evident. These advanced machineries are much more efficient and durable than their previous versions. Concrete Batching Plant is one of the fundamental machines which is frequently used on construction sites. Meanwhile, a number of industries have shown their proclivity in the manufacturing of concrete batching plants, but Nilkanth Engineering Works is all set to create a difference in this regard. Nilkanth Engineering Works has been providing people with the best quality construction machinery since 1982. Having developed experience of 38 years, Nilkanth Engineering Works presents you with its best manufactured Concrete Batching Plants.
What is Concrete Batching Plant ?
Concrete Batching Plant is a construction machinery that converts raw materials into a value-added material, and this material comes out in the form of concrete. The raw material includes a number of materials like air, water, admixtures, cement, fly ash, silica fume, sand, and aggregate. The working of concrete batching plants includes the diverse operations that have been discussed the following section.
Working of Concrete Batching Plants
Nilkanth Engineering works pays dedicated heed in the manufacturing of concrete batching plants and make them perfect for serving you. However, before going into the details of working of this plant, it is mandatory to discuss the categories in which this plant is divided: • Powder feeding involves cement , fly ash • Aggregate feeding • Storage and conveyors, along with admixtures for mixing different materials • Water
In the first step, the control system of the mixer is provided with the electricity, and the weighing hopper of the plant is checked according to the weighing system. The weighing system operates to make sure the addition of the required amount of materials to form an impressive concrete. Control valves of cement tank and fly ash are opened, and conveyers start transmitting these into the weighing Hooper. Then, the valve of the admixture reservoir and water reservoir are opened in the weighing Hooper. Once the amount of all ingredients gets matched with the required one, the process starts. In this process, all the ingredients are mixed in a mixer for the calculated time, and after this time, the door of the mixer opens, and concrete is transferred into concrete mixer trucks. This is how the concrete batching plants work.
Applications of Concrete Batching Plants
Concrete batching plants are being overwhelmingly used in almost all mega construction projects. Either it is about the construction of dams, bridges, or malls, the presence of a concrete batching plant keeps the primary importance, as it is responsible for making the concrete. Moreover, Concrete Batching Plants are frequently used in civil infrastructure development, ready mix, and precast applications.
Ready mix:
The ready mix is an application of the concrete batching plant. All ingredients are combined without water and then transferred into the concrete mix truck. When this truck is on the way, the water is added to mix the concrete.
Central Mix Plant:
In the case of a central mix plant, all ingredients are combined together, and concrete is prepared there on the plant. In this whole plant, work is done on the central plant, and then it is transported to the cite.
Benefits of the Concrete Batching Plant:
There is a number of benefits that are enjoyed by using the concrete batching plant. Some of these benefits have been below: • High Reliability • High Yield Capacity • Higher degree automation • Higher mixing performance These are the four main advantages that are achieved by the concrete batching plants
