The Advantages and Disadvantages of Free Foundation Concrete Mixing Station
What is a foundation-free concrete batching plant?
Free foundation, also known as steel foundation, refers to replacing concrete foundation with steel structure foundation. In fact, the foundation-free concrete mixing station doesn't really need to do foundation construction, but it doesn't need to drive such a deep foundation like the fixed concrete mixing station. It also needs to harden the ground, make a shallow foundation, and put all the equipment parts on a heavy steel chassis.
The foundation-free concrete mixing station is a complete set of automatic concrete mixing equipment, which is composed of batching, mixing and electric control. The concrete mixing plant eliminates the process of designing and installing the foundation, greatly saves the time and foundation cost for customers, and can be relocated for secondary use. It is suitable for medium-sized and large-scale construction sites, prefabricated factory, high-speed rail and highway and Water Conservancy and hydro-power projects and commercial concrete production lines.
Difference between foundation-free concrete batching plant and ordinary concrete batching plant
1. The foundation-free concrete mixing station is different from the traditional concrete mixing station
Steel foundation: Simple! Site leveling and compaction → site hardening for equipment → positioning of steel foundation → installation of main equipment.
Concrete foundation: Complicated! Excavator digging → adding stable layer → setting out → installing formwork and pouring concrete → backfilling soil → installing main equipment → site hardening.
2. The foundation-free concrete mixing station is different from mobile concrete mixing station
Foundation-free concrete mixing station: Foundation-free concrete mixing station uses steel structure foundation, which makes up for the deficiency of fixed concrete mixing station and has the functional characteristics of traditional mixing station.
Mobile concrete mixing station: The whole design is trailer-type, and it is a complete set of equipment completely pre-connected. During the transition, it is quickly disassembled and transported. It is suitable for construction occasions with short construction period, long construction line and frequent transitions.
The Advantages and Disadvantages of Free Foundation Concrete Mixing Plant
1. The main advantages of foundation-free cement mixing station include:
Convenient installation: foundation-free mixing station does not need to build foundation, which saves construction cost and time, and the installation process is fast and convenient, which is suitable for rapid deployment.
Convenient transportation: The mixing station is more convenient in transportation due to the reduction of additional steel structure accessories, and can be put into use quickly, which is suitable for users with high transfer frequency.
Flexible movement: the foundation-free mixing station can be moved and redeployed flexibly, which is suitable for projects that need frequent relocation.
Environmental performance: the foundation-free mixing station has little impact on the environment during use, which meets the requirements of environmental protection.
2. The main disadvantages of foundation-free cement mixing station include:
Heavy equipment: Due to the frame structure, all equipment parts are placed on a heavy steel chassis, which increases the weight of the equipment and brings difficulties to transportation and movement.
Higher cost: Although the cost of foundation construction is saved, the cost of equipment procurement and transportation is higher, and the overall investment is larger.
Limited application scenarios: Foundation-free mixing station is suitable for areas where working conditions are limited and the site is not suitable for foundation, but its flexibility and convenience also make it not advantageous in some fixed site projects.
Applicable Scenarios
The foundation-free mobile concrete mixing station is especially suitable for engineering projects that need frequent relocation or limited site conditions, such as infrastructure construction such as roads, bridges and ports. In these scenarios, its convenient installation and transportation capabilities can significantly improve work efficiency.
