Adopting a drum type design, it can quickly and evenly mix various proportions of concrete.
The modular design of the mini batching plant is easy to disassemble and assemble, and can quickly adapt to different construction environments. The fully automatic control system is easy to operate and improves production efficiency. Due to its compact structure and flexible mobility, it is widely used in construction sites, road and bridge engineering, water conservancy and hydropower, or some temporary projects that require frequent relocation.
Choosing a suitable ready mix concrete plant based on project scale and schedule requirements, calculating the required total amount of concrete and daily production volume for comprehensive consideration, is a key factor in improving production efficiency and reducing costs.
| Project Scale | How To Choose Your Mobile Type Concrete Batching Plant |
| Small Projects | For small projects, the demand for concrete is relatively low and the construction period is short, such as residential construction, small road construction, etc. You can choose a compact concrete plant with a capacity of approximately 20m ³/h to 50m ³/h.
Due to the small scale of the project, the mobile frequency may not be high, so a towed mobile cement batching plant is a good choice. For example, our MCBP integrated concrete plant is very suitable for small projects, with low equipment investment and strong flexibility. |
| Medium Projects | Medium sized projects have a moderate demand for concrete, a moderate construction scope, and a large amount of work. For example, medium-sized buildings, commercial projects, hydropower projects, highways, etc. are suitable for choosing medium capacity mobile mixing plants with a capacity of approximately 50m ³/h to 75m ³/h.
According to the mobile requirements of the project, a trailer or self-propelled mobile mixing plant can be selected. For example, our MCBP integrated mobile station and YHZM mini cement batching plant are both suitable for use in small and medium-sized projects. They can adapt to long-term use, provide sufficient concrete supply, and maintain high production efficiency and concrete quality. |
| Large Projects | The demand for concrete in large-scale projects is very high, with high requirements for production efficiency and concrete quality. In this case, a large capacity mobile concrete mixing plant with a capacity of approximately 75m ³/h to 100m ³/h or a mobile plant with a production capacity of over 100m ³/h can be chosen.
For large-scale projects, the mobility of mobile mixing plants may not be the main consideration, and their output may be more important. You can choose our YHZS mobile cement batching plant, which has a wide production range and can meet the concrete needs of medium and large projects. The equipment is equipped with wheels and has strong flexibility. It can travel independently, reducing dependence on external transportation vehicles. |
If the construction site is flat and the transportation is convenient, the plant can be installed and operated more easily, and the structural requirements for the mixing plant are not high. According to project requirements, larger mobile concrete mixing plants can be selected, which have high production capacity and are suitable for providing large-scale projects. They can provide higher production efficiency, more accurate concrete mix proportions, and concrete supply.
For narrow or rugged construction sites, the mobility and flexibility of portable concrete batch plant are particularly important. For example, in sloping or hilly areas, the installation and operation of mixing plants may face challenges, so it is necessary to choose mixing plants that can adapt to these terrains, such as compact mobile stations or integrated mobile stations; These devices are easy to move in complex terrain and can quickly adjust their position, ensuring that concrete production is not affected by the environment.
When considering the impact of construction site environment and geographical conditions comprehensively, multiple perspectives should be evaluated to ensure that the selected plant can adapt to the needs and conditions of the construction site, providing guarantees for smooth construction and concrete quality standards.
