The feeding method of concrete mixing plant

The mixing machine in the concrete mixing plant is divided into two types: one is lifting and the other is belt feeding. What is the difference between the two feeding methods? What are their advantages and disadvantages?

The difference between the lifting of the concrete mixing station and the loading of the belt:

The lifting feeding is achieved by lifting the bucket application with a brake hoist and pulling by the pulley block and the wire rope to achieve the purpose of lifting the hopper.

The way of feeding the belt is to adopt the principle of the conveyor belt. The belts are connected into a closed loop, and they are tensioned by a tensioning device. Under the driving of the electric motor, the friction between the conveyor belt and the driving drum is used to continuously operate the conveyor belt. Thereby the purpose of transporting the aggregate from the loading end to the unloading end is achieved.

Advantages and disadvantages of improving loading and belt loading:

1. Advantages: The lifting hopper feeding type batching plant has small floor space, low cost, simple structure and convenient disassembly and migration.

Disadvantages: slow feeding speed and low output.

2. Advantages: The belt conveyor has a large conveying distance, high efficiency and low failure rate; and there is a dust removal device in the feeding process, which has environmental protection performance.

Disadvantages: large floor space, high electricity consumption, and large investment in concrete mixing equipment.
