Features of Concrete Mixers
Compulsory Concrete Mixer

 

Mixing Capacity

 

A mixer’s mixing capacity is approximately 80% of the volume of the drum. If you had a 150-litre drum, this would yield around 120L of concrete.

 

Speed of Mixing

 

To achieve the desired consistency, the mixing speed is frequently necessary. At mixing speed, no more than 100 rotations should be utilized. All rotations beyond 100 should be at an agitation speed, as specified by the manufacturer. Agitating speed is typically 2 to 6 revolutions per minute, whereas mixing speed is typically 6 to 18 revolutions per minute.

 

Durability and Longevity

 

In general, the service life of a steel alloy concrete mixer truck is 50,000-80,000 cubic metres. Concrete mixer truck stir blades have a lifetime of only 30,000 to 40,000 cubic metres.

Types of Concrete Mixer
 

Batch Mixer
A batch mixer is a mixer that creates small to medium-sized batches of concrete for usage on a project or construction site. Both the drum and pan mixers have rotating blades which mix together the combination of water, aggregate, and cement.

 

Drum Mixer
Drum mixers are named for their conical shape that looks similar to a drum. These mixers come in a number of configurations which can be used depending on the type of mixture and project site.

 

Tilting Mixer
The tilting drum mixer is one that can be controlled and tilted on an axis to make pouring concrete easier. These mixers are typically used on sites where a generous amount of concrete is needed on a lower level.

 

Non-Tilting Mixer
A non-tilting drum mixer mixes concrete at a horizontal axis. With no tilting ability, this configuration requires an incline chute to collect the concrete mixture.
There is an intake and a discharge area whereby the ingredients are poured into the intake and the concrete mixtures are poured out of the discharge once mixed together.

 

Reversing Mixer
Similar to the non-tilting mixer, the reversing mixer is stationary on a horizontal axis. However, instead of offering separate intake and discharge areas, both utilize the same opening.

 

Pan Mixer
A pan mixer operates in much the same way as a drum mixer; the main difference is that the pan mixer utilizes a cylindrical pan instead of a drum.

 

Continuous Mixer
Other than the batch mixer, the other type of mixer is a continuous mixer. These mixers (as their name implies) continuously load, mix, and discharge the concrete mix.

 

Components of Concrete Mixer

 

 

 

Aggregate Bunkers
These are the storage units where sand, gravel and other aggregates are stored.

 
 

Conveyor Belts
These are the belts used for the transportation of aggregates from storage areas to concrete plants. Weighing Systems: These are the systems where components such as sand, gravel, water, and cement are weighed in the proper amount.

 
 

Mixer
It is the section where the concrete mixture is prepared. Concrete mixers can be stationary or mobile and have a variety of capacities.

 
 

Silo
These are the storage areas where cement and other dusty materials are stored. Silos can be of high capacity and used to store cement, limestone, sawdust, and other additives.

 
 

Control Room
It is the center where all components of the concrete plant are controlled. The amount of constituents of the concrete mix and the mixing ratios are set here.

 
 

Water Tank
It is employed to store the water used in the preparation of the concrete mix.

 
 

Pneumatic System
It is used to provide the air pressure needed for the transportation of the concrete mix.

 
 

Electricity and Generator System
It is necessary for the operation of all electrical components in the concrete batching plant.
