Batching Plant Concrete Mixer
Products Description
AGICO's Batching Plant Concrete Mixer is a series of high-performance mixing equipment for concrete production. It includes twin-shaft, single-shaft, planetary, pan, cone, and tilting drum mixers. AGICO products offer three core advantages: high mixing uniformity, low operating costs, and long-life wear-resistant design. They are especially suitable for ready-mix concrete, precast concrete, dry hard concrete, self-compacting concrete, and lightweight aggregate concrete.
All mixers use wear-resistant alloy liners and internationally certified steel. They meet IP55 protection standards and support global spare parts supply. AGICO also provides pre-wired control panels, hydraulic coupling starting protection, microwave moisture sensors, and bi-directional discharge doors. These features ensure stable operation in large projects and high-intensity production.
Products Features
For large aggregates (up to 180 mm) and high output requirements, AGICO Batching Plant Concrete Mixer uses counter-rotating shafts and spiral mixing arm arrangement. It completes uniform mixing in only 30 seconds. Its hydraulic discharge door operates automatically at 4,300 psi working pressure and also supports manual emergency operation. This solves the common problems of incomplete discharge and material jamming.
For low-slump concrete, colored precast concrete, and ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC), AGICO Batching Plant Concrete Mixer achieves optimal cement dispersion through high-intensity countercurrent mixing. Mixing uniformity can reach 100% volume utilization. The mixer supports multiple discharge door configurations (2 or more pneumatic or hydraulic doors). This completely solves the problem of uneven mixing for special concrete mixtures.
For small batch and high frequency production, AGICO Batching Plant Concrete Mixer uses cold-cast nickel-chromium steel bottom plate and spring-tensioned mixing arms. Wear rate is reduced by more than 30%. Its mixing pan can be tilted and disassembled, and it comes with a galvanized wide maintenance door. This significantly shortens cleaning time and liner replacement time.
To solve the common industry problem of bearing failure caused by cement slurry leakage, AGICO Batching Plant Concrete Mixer places the bearings in a special sealed housing outside the mixing drum. It uses a multi-seal structure. Even if the seal fails, slurry cannot enter the bearing. The mixer also offers various mixing tools such as plowshares, toothed plowshares, and blades, with an optional wear-resistant coating.
For applications that require gentle aggregate handling or have no on-site power supply, AGICO Batching Plant Concrete Mixer achieves shear-free mixing through 360° drum rotation. The tilting drum mixer can be driven by diesel, gasoline, or electric motor. It operates at a 15° tilt angle, with the charging opening and discharging opening combined. Its simple structure and very low maintenance cost make it suitable for remote job sites.
Product Specification
Technical Specification of AGICO Concrete Mixer
AGICO mixers use a modular design. The mixing chamber is welded from high-strength steel plates. Inside, there are replaceable high-chromium wear-resistant liners (hardness up to 610 BHN, thickness 18 mm). The mixing main shaft is driven by a heavy-duty gearbox and equipped with a hydraulic coupling to reduce starting shock. All seals and bearings are lubricated by a centralized automatic greasing system, with working pressure up to 4,300 psi. The mixing arms are arranged in a spiral pattern, allowing the material to be dispersed efficiently.
After materials are fed into the mixing drum according to the sequence, the mixing shaft drives the blades to rotate at a specific speed. In a twin-shaft mixer, the two shafts rotate in opposite directions. The material is thrown up by the blades and moves back and forth both axially and radially. In a planetary mixer, the mixing arms revolve around the vertical shaft while also rotating on their own axis. The entire mixing process is usually completed within 30 to 72 seconds. After mixing is finished, the hydraulic or pneumatic discharge door opens automatically, and the material is discharged quickly. AGICO can customize a high-pressure cleaning system to automatically spray and clean the drum interior between batches.
Types of AGICO Batching Plant Concrete Mixer
Batching Plant Twin Shaft Mixer
It has two counter-rotating horizontal shafts with staggered mixing blades. It offers high efficiency and large capacity. It is widely used for large-scale ready-mix concrete, precast concrete, roller-compacted concrete (RCC), and mixing of large aggregates (up to 180 mm).
Batching Plant Single Shaft Mixer
This mixer has only one horizontal shaft, equipped with plowshares, toothed plowshares, or blades. It is suitable for mixing powders and wet slurries. It is mainly used in chemical industry, building materials, dyes, and dry-mix mortar.
Batching Plant Plantery Mixer
During operation, the mixing arms of this mixer revolve around the vertical shaft while also rotating on their own axis. This creates countercurrent shear and high-intensity convection. It is especially suitable for specialty concrete and low-slump concrete.
Batching Plant Pan Concrete Mixer
It uses a fixed circular mixing pan design. The internal rotating mixing plows work together with side scrapers. This allows the material to be repeatedly lifted and cut at the pan bottom. Due to its wear resistance and easy maintenance, it is widely used for small-batch precast concrete, blocks, concrete piles, tiles, glass, and dry or wet mortar.
Batching Plant Cone Mixer
It uses a rotating conical container. The material mixes through gravity tumbling and the geometric shape of the container, achieving shear-free mixing. It is especially suitable for aggregates that require gentle handling.
Batching Plant Tilting Drum Mixer
It uses a tiltable drum-shaped container. The feeding opening and discharging opening are combined into one. Material is discharged by tilting the drum at a 15° angle. Its structure is simple and the price is low. It is suitable for small job sites, road and bridge projects, and locations without on-site electricity.
FAQ
Q: How does the AGICO twin-shaft mixer ensure uniform mixing without damaging large aggregates (over 150 mm)?
A: The mixing arms of the AGICO twin-shaft mixer are arranged in a spiral交错 pattern. The blade tip speed is optimized (below 1.5 m/s). This allows the aggregates to be thrown up in the turbulent zone rather than being sheared. At the same time, the gap between the mixing arms and the liners can be adjusted to ≥2 times the maximum aggregate size. This prevents aggregate jamming or breakage. For aggregates up to 180 mm, AGICO recommends the TS6000 model. Its blade edges are rounded to further reduce impact.
Q: How does the spring-tensioned mixing arm of the AGICO pan mixer specifically reduce maintenance frequency?
A: Each mixing arm of the AGICO pan mixer is independently mounted on a spring-loaded fixing plate. When hard aggregates or foreign objects are encountered, the mixing arm automatically retracts to avoid them. After passing, it returns to its original position. This prevents the mixing arm from breaking or the liners from being scratched. Compared with traditional rigid connections, this design extends the mixing arm life by 2–3 times and reduces monthly downtime for inspection. The spring pressure can be adjusted on site to suit different aggregate hardness levels.
Q: Does the AGICO mixer support customization according to local voltage or dust control standards?
A: Yes. AGICO provides full customization services. The motor voltage can be customized according to the customer's local power grid (e.g., 380V/50Hz, 460V/60Hz). For the dust control system, customers can choose an independent bag filter or connection to a central dust extraction pipe. The discharge door can be configured for two-way or three-way opening. Explosion-proof design can also be added for special applications such as mine backfilling. All customizations are available with CE or GOST certification options.
Q: How does AGICO solve the problem of bearing damage caused by water or cement slurry leaking into the bearings due to seal failure?
A: AGICO uses a "remote bearing housing" design in all horizontal mixers (twin-shaft and single-shaft). The bearings are installed in a separate housing outside the mixing drum. Between the housing and the drum, there are three sealing barriers: a labyrinth seal, an air seal, and an oil seal. Even if the first two seals fail, the leaked slurry will drain out through the inspection hole at the bottom of the housing and will not enter the bearings. At the same time, the central automatic lubrication system continuously injects high-pressure grease (up to 4,300 psi) into the sealing surfaces, actively preventing slurry from penetrating.
