A concrete plant, also known as a batch plant or batching plant or a concrete batching plant, is equipment that combines various ingredients to form concrete. Some of these inputs include water, air, admixtures, sand, aggregate (rocks, gravel, etc.), fly ash, silica fume, slag, and cement. A concrete plant can have a variety of parts and accessories, including: mixers (either tilt drum or horizontal, or in some cases both), cement batchers, aggregate batchers, conveyors, radial stackers, aggregate bins, cement bins, heaters, chillers, cement silos, batch plant controls, and dust collectors.The heart of the concrete batching plant is the mixer, and there are many types of mixers, such as tilt drum, pan, planetary, single shaft and twin shaft. The twin shaft mixer can ensure an even mixture of concrete through the use of high horsepower motors, while the tilt mixer offers a comparatively large batch of concrete mix. In North America, the predominant central mixer type is a tilt drum style, while in Europe and other parts of the world, a twin shaft mixer is more prevalent. A pan or planetary mixer is more common at a precast plant.

Preparation for the Self Loading Concrete Mixer Truck1. To operating the self-loading mixer truck, pay attention to the pressure of the hydraulic system , and should not be adjusted arbitrarily. The quality and quantity of hydraulic oil should meet the original requirements.2. When operating the automatic feeding mixer, pay attention to draining the remaining water and sundries in the mixing drum before loading. During transportation, it should be rotated continuously to prevent concrete segregation. Before the concrete mixer truck arrives at the construction site and unloads, the mixing drum should be rotated at full speed at 14-18 rpm for 1-2 minutes, and then reversed to unload. Before reversing, stop the mixing drum, and then start reversing.3. If the ambient temperature is higher than +25 degrees Celsius, the duration from loading, transportation, to unloading shall not exceed 60 minutes, and if the ambient temperature is lower than +25 degrees Celsius, the above-mentioned time shall not exceed 90 minutes.4. During winter construction, it should be done: check whether it is frozen before starting the machine; carefully remove the residual water in the mixing drum and water supply system when off work, turn off the water pump switch, and put the control handle in the "stop" position.5. After unloading at the construction site, the hose that comes with the equipment should be used to flush the inlet hopper, outlet hopper, discharge chute, etc. immediately to remove the sludge and concrete adhering to the car body. On the way back to the mixing station, 150-200L of water should be injected into the mixing drum to clean the concrete residue bonded to the drum wall and blades.6. After the daily work, the driver should be responsible for injecting clean water into the mixing drum of the automatic feeding mixer and rotating it at high speed (14-18 rpm) for 5-10 minutes, and then draining the water to ensure the cleanliness of the drum. When cleaning all parts of the mixing drum with high-pressure water, care should be taken to avoid parts such as instruments and joysticks. The distance between the pressure water nozzle and the painted surface of the vehicle body shall not be less than 40 cm.
