Manufacturing a concrete batching plant requires professionalism, experience and ongoing research and development. Conditions at the installation site must be assessed carefully and appropriate industrial design principles applied. The capacities of the components making up the plant must be compatible.

Otherwise, production interruptions and inconsistent concrete quality can occur. For example, a plant with a large mixer needs a suitably sized aggregate hopper and cement silo. If these are undersized, the target output cannot be achieved and frequent replenishment of raw materials reduces profitability. For mixer capacities above one cubic metre, a twin-shaft mixer is generally recommended. At higher capacities it occupies less space than a pan mixer, while its two horizontal shafts help produce a homogeneous mixture.

When considering how a concrete batching plant is built, two of the most important factors are the type and quality of the mixer and the quality and suitability of the electrical automation components.
Load cells used for weighing are manufactured in S-type, beam-type and other forms, selected according to the application. S-type load cells may weigh raw materials on the belt below an aggregate hopper, while beam-type cells may measure material in the mixer. Load cells are precision devices that provide digital weight measurements. Incorrect measurements lead to poor-quality, inconsistent concrete and production losses.
