What’re the aggregate feed system of concrete batching plant?
This system of concrete batching plant is composed of dosing machine, belt conveyor, weighing hopper, belt and intermediate bin. Various aggregates are first weighed while falling into the hopper and then transported by the belt conveyor to the intermediate bin, from which the aggregates are discharged for mixing.
i. Sand storage bin
It consists a bin and its supporting posts bolted together. It can be dismounted in case of transportation. The whole structure is welded with steel plates and U steels.
The belt conveyor, with a weighing hopper for sands and a belt hung on it, is under the bin.
ii. Dosing mechanism
It is under the storage bin. The mechanism fulfills the simultaneous weighing for various aggregates following the signal sent from the control panel.
iii. Belt conveyor
It is under the weighing hoper, sending the weighed aggregates to the lifting belt conveyor.
iv. Lifting belt conveyor
It is connected with the belt conveyor, lifting the aggregates to a certain level and feeding into the intermediate bin.
v. Intermediate bin
It collects the aggregates lifted by the lifting belt. The bottom gate opens in response to the order from the control system and discharges the aggregates to the mixer.
