Mobile concrete mixing plant VS general concrete batching plant

Concrete batching plant equipment is mainly divided into two types: mobile and fixed. There are significant differences in design and function between these two types of equipment. What's the difference? Let's first understand the main differences between the two:

1. Structure and design

Mobile batching station: compact structure and relatively simple system. The concrete mixer, batching machine, control room, belt conveyor, weighing system, line cables, wheels, etc. are all on a traction pallet. The traction pallet is equipped with a trailer unit for easy connection to the mobile head. Therefore, in addition to basic equipment, the mobile mixing plant also requires a tractor head, and the cement silo needs to be shipped separately.

General mixing station (fixed type): The equipment configuration is relatively complex, mainly including the main structure, concrete mixer, batching machine, cement silo, weighing system, electric system, pneumatic system, aggregate lifting system, and control room. At the same time, the mixing station also needs to be equipped with mixer trucks, concrete pumps and other equipment. If it is a commercial concrete mixing station, it must also have a weighbridge and a commercial concrete laboratory.

2.Mobility and flexibility

YHZS mobile mixing station: It has the characteristics of flexible movement and easy disassembly and assembly. Its main equipment adopts a trailer chassis structure design, so that the batching machine, conveyor, mixer, control room, weighing systems, additive systems, etc. can form a whole, which facilitates rapid transition and positioning.

HZS concrete mixing station: Due to the complex and large equipment configuration, it is usually not mobile and needs to be fixed at a specific location for concrete production.

3. Feeding method

The batching machine of a mobile concrete mixing plant is usually fed via a belt conveyor, which makes the batching process simpler and more efficient.

The batching machine of the fixed concrete mixing station needs to be loaded through other methods, which makes the batching process relatively complicated and low-efficiency.

4. Installation and debugging

Mobile concrete mixing station: The degree of assembly is high, all components are manufactured in the factory, and only simple assembly is required at the construction site. The whole station structure reduces the use of high-strength bolts, making installation more accurate and faster with less workload.

General concrete batching station: Due to the complex equipment configuration, the installation and debugging process is relatively cumbersome and requires more time and manpower investment.

5. Scope of application

Mobile mixing station: It is mainly suitable for small and medium-sized engineering projects with inconvenient transportation and narrow ground, as well as temporary projects, roads with long engineering lines, high-speed rail projects and other projects with insufficient construction space. In addition, due to its portability, it can also be used for rental purposes.

General mixing station (fixed type): Mainly used for large-scale concrete production work, suitable for large-scale engineering projects and stable concrete production needs.

6. Cost

Mobile concrete mixing station: Because it needs to be designed as a movable structure, the cost may be slightly higher than a fixed station with the same output, but it can save the time and cost of transferring between different projects.

Fixed concrete mixing station: The initial construction cost is higher, but the cost can be diluted during long-term use, which is suitable for long-term and stable concrete production needs.

In general, mobile concrete mixing plants are suitable for flexible, short-term, temporary projects, while fixed mixing plants are more suitable for long-term, large-scale, fixed concrete production tasks. Which type of mixing station to choose should be determined based on specific engineering needs.
