Mobile Batch

The Daracon Mobile (Modular) Concrete Batching Plant is a purpose built unit specifically for large products requiring high quality concrete in tight time frames. The plant has been designed so that it can be re-located with relative ease – all footings for the silos and the loading bay are precast and relocatable and most electrical fittings are “plug & play” type so minimising hard-wiring required when relocating.

 The plant is fully computerised and operated by a Jonel Batching System which has full technical local back-up 24/7. The plant consists of 5-off, 25 tonne negative weigh bins with 2 x positive weigh powder weigh bins (cement and fly ash) – these powder weigh bins are currently fed via augers from 2 x on-ground silos. The whole plant can be delivered to site on 15-off semi-trailers, stood on a prepared site in 1 x day with approximately 2 to 3 days to fully commission (including calibration) and be ready to produce concrete. The plant can utilise fresh water or re-cycled water (preferred) and can change over on the fly by a click of a button. The plant can produce a maximum of 100m3 per hour – maximum daily output for this unit currently stands at 742m3.

The plant is a Forbes Engineering built unit (Australian) and has manufactured approximately 90,000m3 of high grade concrete for Runways and Highways.
