Do you know what factors can affect the batching plant capacity? The volume of the equipment? The size of the equipment? The price of the equipment? The brand strength of the manufacturer?
Do you know what capacity of concrete batching plant would be the most suitable for your project? 60m³/h? 90m³/h? 100m³/h? 180m³/h?
If you want your project to achieve the maximum benefits, choosing the appropriate capacity for the concrete batching plant can significantly enhance the project efficiency and reduce costs. However, the factors influencing the production capacity of the concrete batching plant are far more than just one number; it is the result of the synergy of multiple systems. Here are several factors that affect the batching plant capacity.
1. The volume of the mixer and the working cycle
Many factors affect the production of batching plant capacity. Among the most important indicators are the volume of the concrete mixer and the working cycle of the mixer (including mixing time and discharge time). The mixing machine is the heart of the concrete mixing plant, and its model, design and efficiency directly affect the batching plant capacity.
That is to say, increasing the volume of the mixer or shortening the mixing time will ultimately enhance the production of batching plant capacity. For instance, a HZS90 concrete mixing plant equipped with a JS1500 mixer has a working cycle of approximately 75 seconds. If a larger JS3000 mixer is used, it can produce 120 cubic meters of concrete per hour and shorten the working cycle to 60 seconds, resulting in a change in production capacity.
For large production capacity requirements, AGICO recommends using JS1000, JS1500, and JS2000.
For small production capacity requirements, AGICO recommends using single shaft mixers.
Of course, due to the different cycle times of different mixers, the cycle time of AGICO’s efficient mixer can be as low as 45-60 seconds per batch, improving the uniformity of material mixing and output stability.
2. Batching system
The improvement of production efficiency at a concrete mixing plant is not only dependent on the concrete mixer, but also on the accuracy and speed of the batching system. A good batching system can significantly enhance the efficiency of concrete production.
While other brand manufacturers were still producing traditional manual batching equipment, AGICO had already developed a PLC human-machine interface automatic control system. Through high-speed sensors and precise weighing modules, it ensures precise and stable feeding each time. AGICO’s system supports automatic adjustment of the ratio of various additives, reducing manual intervention and accelerating the production pace.
Many customers have reported that after installing the AGICO concrete batching plant, their production efficiency has significantly improved. They continue to purchase it and even recommend it to their fellow customers.
3. Raw Material Supply System
The efficiency of the concrete batching plant is closely related to the raw material supply chain. Even if the mainframe design is excellent, if the raw material supply cannot keep up, it will lead to a decrease in production capacity.
AGICO offers integrated storage and supply solutions: multi-bin design, belt conveyors, slope conveyors, combined with cement pneumatic systems. On construction sites in Indonesia where sand and gravel are in short supply, after installing the entire AGICO system, the customers informed us that the concrete production output has steadily increased by 20%, significantly reducing the waiting time for materials, and they highly praised our AGICO equipment.
4. Design Layout of the concrete batch plant
A good concrete batching plant capacity is not solely determined by the numbers; it also depends on whether the overall site layout is scientifically and reasonably designed.
AGICO has accumulated rich on-site layout optimization solutions from its extensive global project experience and can customize designs based on the client’s site conditions. Please feel free to contact us for consultation.
5. Operator Skills
Even if the equipment is of high quality, improper operation by the operators can still affect the capacity. AGICO offers a comprehensive training system:
- On-site operation training
- System maintenance training
- Remote technical support
An excellent operator team can maximize the performance of the equipment, making the concrete batching plant capacity closer to the theoretical value. AGICO can help you achieve maximum benefits.
