Overview
Aggregate bunker is a kind of stocking tool designed for stocking and holding ready to use aggregate materials required for concrete batching plants. Concrete Plant Aggregate Bunkers allow the weighing of different lengths of materials before the preparation of the concrete mixture and sending them to the concrete mixer. It can be produced with pneumatic gates and weighing belts. There are options from 5m3 to 50 m3, and they can be produced in groups of 2, 3, 4 or 5. For bigger companies, these machines are specially designed for all types of aggregates needed to obtain ready-mixed concrete. The aggregate bunkers, which are fixed in any location within the facility, are stored without damaging the material inside even in the most difficult climate conditions. These machines have different compartments according to the size and type of the aggregates used and can be produced in different capacities depending on the amount of material that will be stored.
Aggregate batching machine
Aggregate batching system is in the back part of the whole chassis. The upper part of aggregate batching machine is storage hopper, which can include 2 or 4 hoppers. And some heightening plates are installed to increase storage capacity. Besides, aggregate batching machine is equipped with walking rear bridge and frame supporting legs. By setting the proportion of aggregate, batching machine can weigh them and mix them.
Advantages of aggregate bunkers
1. High weighing accuracy
2. WAM vibrator, good vibration effect,even if the aggregate is very moist, there will no aggregate attached to the inner side of the hopper.
3. Taiwan AirTAC cylinder
4. METTLER-TOLEDO or AMCELLS load cell for your option
Working
The aggregate bunkers used in the first stage of production in concrete plants; for sand and gravel, and aggregate storage in addition to special size crushed stones or mineral materials to feed concrete mixing mixers, regardless of external environmental conditions. t is generally suitable for loading directly from a bucket or truck with the help of a ramp. In addition, aggregate pre-feeding systems or single-chamber stock bunkers can be loaded with a conveyor belt. Body material is made of twisted sheet metal, side covers are hinged, each chamber has Vibro motor features (optional). Hopper covers are under automation control and are pneumatically driven. The additive scale makes a smart material contribution according to the information it gets from the load cells. Aggregate stock with high capacities up to 20 m3 to 500 m3 and also the number of stockpiles can be increased by starting with 2 pieces.
Application
Aggregate bunker batching machine is widely used in construction site, road and bridge projects. And it is a quite match machine for concrete mixing plant. Besides, it is characteristic of various structure, flexible combination, high weighing accuracy, easy operation and high automation. When it begins to work, it should keep empty. If there is something wrong during its working time, cut off the power at once then start it again..
