Before we understand the working or operation of a
concrete batch plant.It is important to understand the basic components and structure of a batching
plant. We have mobile
concrete plants installations in Philippines’s city like: Bulacan, Cavite and Pampanga. It is a machine that combines various ingredients like aggregates, sand, water, cement and additives.These components are first weighed individually and then combined to prepared ready mix
concrete. This material prepared is widely used for several types of construction projects.

Since the mixing of individual components is by weight it is possible to alter and change weight of individual materials to prepare different grade or quality of
concrete. Some of the grades of
concrete for India are as 1:3:6, 1:2:4, 1:1:2 etc. Here we express the proportions of the ingredients of the
concrete mix in terms of ratios or parts of cement, fine and coarse aggregates. When we talk about 1:3:6, it defines the ratio or parts of cement, fine and coarse aggregates. Meaning the mix material has one part of cement, three parts of fines and six parts of coarse aggregates. The proportion is by weight.
concrete batching plant is divided into four parts: gravel feed, powder (cement, fly ash, bulking agents, etc.) to feed, water and feed additives, transmission and storage stirred their workflow shown in Figure 1. , the mixer control system power, into the human – machine dialogue operation interface, system initialization process, including recipe number, grade
