Concrete batching plants are generally a combination of several pieces of concreting equipment, which come together to make bulk production of concrete quick and efficient. Concrete batching plants are made up of several components, including mixers, silos, batchers, conveyors, dust collectors and more. Different types of batching plants will require different components depending on your needs.
What size concrete batching plant do I need?
It depends on your project scale. For small to medium jobs, a mobile or compact batching plant is usually enough. High-output projects typically require a larger, stationary plant with higher mixer capacity and storage silos.
What's the difference between dry and wet batching plants?
Dry plants mix materials on-site via a transit mixer, while wet plants pre-mix everything before loading. Wet batching ensures better quality control, but dry plants are often more portable and cost-effective.
Can I use a concrete batching plant for custom mix designs?
Yes. Many modern batching plants sold via Machines4U offer programmable logic controls (PLC), allowing operators to customise mix ratios for specific applications like precast, high-strength or coloured concrete.
