DualBatch™ Mobile Concrete Plant
If you’re looking for a portable concrete plant with higher production capacity than our popular Portabatch™ mobile plant, there is the DualBatch™. It offers 200 cubic yards per hour production in a robust mobile facility that is ready to get to work. Its features include:
Dual Aggregate Weigh Hoppers
- Each aggregate weigh hopper has sufficient capacity to batch 10.4 cubic yards of concrete.
- Four lock down bolts are positioned alongside each of the four load cells in order to simplify the locking process and ensure the transport stability of the weigh hoppers.
- Two pneumatically-operated geared discharge gates with sealed-bearing hinge pins for ease of replacement. Inching control solenoids allow for variable door opening.
- Two removable LED indicators with sun shade positioned for the operator’s ease of view.
- Electrically-operated vibrator on compensating plate
Horizontal Conveyor
A horizontal conveyor, 30” wide and approximately 26ft long, transfers the aggregates from the aggregate weigh hoppers to the incline conveyor.
- 10hp geared electric motor
- Scraper at the head end
- Rubber-lined head drum at the conveyor drive
- Vee plough scraper at the tail end
- Crowned tail drum
- Sealed bearings (no greasing required)
- Heavy duty, low maintenance screw take-up
- 45º troughing system with return rollers
- 3-ply pylon heavy belting with 1/8” and 1/16” covers
- Lanyard safety switch
- Safety guards
Incline Conveyor
An Incline Conveyor, 30” wide and approximately 32.5ft long, transfers aggregates from the horizontal conveyor to the transit mixer through the gob hopper.
- 10hp geared electric motor
- Scraper at the head end
- Rubber-lined head drum at the conveyor drive
- Vee plough scraper at the tail end
- The take-up has a crowned tail drum
- Heavy duty, low maintenance screw take-up
- 45º troughing system with return rollers
- 3-ply pylon heavy belting with 1/8” and 1/16” covers
- Lanyard safety switch
- Safety guards
The gob hopper at the head of the conveyor is fitted with a rubber impact plate and stainless-steel liners. An access plate is bolted to the front of the gob hopper for maintenance of the head end scraper. A ¼” gob hopper sock completes the loading for trouble-free cement discharge. The batch belt and cement discharge screw pivot for transport, allowing the transportable height of the unit to be 15 feet.
Dual Cement Weigh Hoppers
- Each hopper has a capacity of approximately 4.1 cubic yards.
- Central pneumatic discharging with butterfly valves
- Three shear beam load cells
- Inspection hatch that incorporates the CMQ low profile reverse pulse filter
- Airslide and half rotary gate which delivers cement into the screw
- Locking system for securing the hoppers for transit is the same design as that for the aggregate weigh hopper, with an additional locking bolt on the screw body
- Two additional inlets in the top of the hopper allow for storage silos to feed into the hopper
- Calibration points
Discharge Screw
A 13 ¾” diameter Discharge Screw runs parallel to the incline conveyor, delivering material directly into the gob hopper.
- 20hp geared electric motor with sprocket & chain
- Inspection plates
- Load cells show the screw is empty of product on discharge
- Pivoting support bracket
- A three-way directional switch fitted to the electric motor allows the screw to be reversed to change polarity if required.
Water Pump and Pipes
- A close-coupled 10hp electrically driven in-line centrifugal pump supplies 12 gallons/sec of water to the transit mixer.
- The water is metered into the transit mixer through 3-1/8” galvanized piping with four socket inlets for admixtures and a ManuFlo meter.
- A pipe with a shut off butterfly valve allows water to be discharged from the water supply.
