Volumetric Concrete Mixing
A volumetric concrete mixer is essentially a mobile truck mixer and concrete batching plant rolled into one.
All the raw materials are stored in separate compartments and these are then metered and mixed into fresh concrete when and where it is needed on the truck at the job site to make and deliver concrete according to the amount needed. This means there is no expensive waste of materials, as the unmixed product remains useable indefinitely.
The mixer is a mixing device that measures the raw materials using volume rather than weight. The volumetric mixer blends the concrete mixture using an auger or a paddle or a drum device to mix the ingredients with water. The volumetric mixing process starts with a batch metering system that allows the volume of raw materials to be measured prior to entering the mixing chamber.
