How to equip silos for a concrete mobile batching plant

It is a common phenomenon that a mobile batching plant ready mix concrete is not equipped with silos, for it’s not convenient to transport huge hollow silos together with compact modular units of a mobile plant. Then how to equip your new mobile concrete batching plant with silos? Here are two methods for reference.

Additional configuration of cement silos

This approach is actually the most common solution, but the key lies in the selection. Two points should be paid attention to:

Pay attention to the size of a cement silo. Choose a small size, 30t is enough. Larger cement silos will take a lot of time to get installed and erected, and usually mobile plants have a small capacity, like an hzs25 mobile concrete batching plant, so 30-ton silos should be enough.

Don't choose fragmented cement silos, but choose the integrated ones. Although the fragmented cement silos are easy to be transported, it takes a long time and manpower to install them, which further drags the construction period behind.

Use Alternative Tools

This is a test of the construction technology. An inverted cone base can be used, similar to the lower half of the cement silo. Its function is to store the cement powder to be used. The base should not be equipped with sharp devices. Puncture the cement bag and let the cement enter the base connected to the screw conveyor. The powder is finally conveyed in this way.

The general equipping methods of silos for a concrete mobile batching plant are nothing more than the above two. Although other methods are also available, the steps are similar. You need a powder storage device, and the device also needs to be fixed on the ground. As long as you can find a substitute, you can complete the powder Storage and transportation. In addition, the connection between the screw conveyor and the base may need no universal joints, so it is recommended to use canvas bags, and the effect will be the same.
