    Storage of materials like cement, water, and aggregates is essential for batching plants. Cement is generally stored in silos and weighed separately. Water is stored in tanks and measured accurately. Aggregates can be stored in various ways depending on the type of plant, including vertical silos, star pattern bins, or inline silos. There are three main types of batching plants - vertical plants with aggregates stored above, star pattern plants, and horizontal plants with inline aggregate storage.

    Storage of Materials
    Cement
    Water
    Aggregates

    Storage of Cement

    Cement is generally stored in silos.


    If bagged cement is used then the cement is loaded using a compressed air
    loader and a splitter unit.
    Cement is weighed separately. Cement from the silos is transported into a
    mechanical or Electro-mechanical weigher by means of a screw conveyor.

    Storage of Water

    Water is generally stored in tanks located close to the plant.


    It is accurately measured by a gauge and a microprocessor
    controlled system.
    A recording unit calculates the sands average moisture value and
    passes on the information to the batching control unit to allow
    corrective action to be taken.
    The system operates to an accuracy of as much as 0.2 percentage
    relative moisture.
    Consistency of the mix generally checked by visual observation,
    later confirming it with a workability test like slump test.

    Aggregates
    Aggregates

    storage is done in various ways


    depending on the type of plant.
    There are three types of plants generally in use.
    1. Vertical batching plant
    2. Horizontal production plant
    3. Horizontal mobile plant

    can be again broadly classified into four


    types:
    Star Pattern aggregate storage
    Storage in tall silos
    Storage in pocket silos
    Inline aggregate storage silo

    Horizontal Batching Mixing plant

    Horizontal mobile plant


    These

    plants are designed for rapid transportation


    and installation.
    They have inline silo or star pattern storage bin for
    storage of aggregates.
    The inline storage- system has only capacity of 40
    to 180 cu.m.
    The aggregates are weighed on an
    electromechanical weigher belt.
