Manufacturing Process of Ready-Mix Concrete
Are you interested in learning more about ready mix concrete plant working process? Contact us today to secure an expert consultation!
Ready-mix concrete is a tailor-made concrete that is manufactured in a bulk amount within a batching plant based on the required specifications. The preparation of ready-mix concrete combines a fresh concrete mix including sand, cement, water and aggregates at perfect ratio and then the mixture is kept in a ready-mix truck. Sometimes other additives can be added during the mixing process to increase the concrete&#;s strength and durability.
After loading the mixture in a ready-mix truck, it is delivered to worksites in a freshly mixed state as per order.&#;

Aggregates, which make up roughly 60% to 75% of ready-mix concrete&#;s volume, are obtained from quarries and aggregate banks.
Additives are solid or liquid chemical substances that can be added to ready-mix concrete before or during preparation. Most commonly used additives either improve a hardened concrete&#;s durability or reduce a concrete&#;s water content in an effort to shorten setting times.
This is the mix&#;s vital fluid, which sets of a chemical reaction when it comes into contact with the cement.
No other material rivals cement&#;s importance in the mix; it&#;s the ingredient that gives concrete its resistance. Although types II and IV are also employed, the most widely used cements are gray Portland type I and Pozzolana Portland type C-2.
During the mixing phase the different components come together to produce a uniform mass of concrete. Mixing time is registered from the moment material and water are poured into the cement mixer, and it begins rotating.
While transporting concrete to a site, the cement mixer never stops revolving at a speed of two to six rotations per minute.
