NEO MAKİNA ve MÜHENDİSLİK A.Ş. builds turnkey concrete batching plants for ready-mix producers, precast factories and large infrastructure sites. Multi-compartment aggregate bins, cement silos, load-cell weighing systems, belt transfer, twin-shaft or planetary mixer and fully automatic control produce concrete to EN 206 quality requirements at 30–240 m³/h in stationary, compact and mobile configurations.
Process Flow
- Aggregate storage: 3–6 compartment inline or star-type bins (50–200 m³ total); sand, crushed sand and chippings in separate compartments; moisture sensors for water correction.
- Aggregate weighing: Cumulative or individual weighing on a load-cell belt via bin discharge gates; ±1% accuracy.
- Transfer: Inclined belt conveyor to the mixer; higher capacity, quieter operation and lower maintenance than skip-hoist systems. Skip option for small capacities.
- Cement and admixtures: 50–500 t cement silos, screw conveyors and load-cell cement scale (±0.5%); water scale and flowmeter; liquid admixture dosing pumps.
- Mixing: Homogeneous mix in 30–60 seconds in a twin-shaft or planetary mixer; wear-resistant Ni-Hard / high-chrome linings and arms.
- Discharge: Automatic discharge into transit mixers or the precast line; dust collection, water misting and recycling unit for environmental compliance.
Mixer Technologies
Twin-Shaft Mixer
- Industrial standard for ready-mix and major infrastructure (dams, highways, RCC); aggressive, fast mixing, 1–6 m³ compacted output.
- Low energy consumption, high capacity; synchronised gearbox and automatic lubrication.
Planetary Mixer
- Dead-zone-free precision mixing for precast, architectural, coloured concrete and dry mixes; 0.5–3 m³ output.
- Homogeneous distribution in high-strength and fibre-reinforced concrete; easy cleaning.
Plant Configurations
- Stationary plants: 60 – 240 m³/h; long-term high-volume production, modular installation on steel structure; twin-mixer options.
- Compact plants: 30 – 100 m³/h; small footprint, fast installation, relocatable modules; container-size transport.
- Mobile plants: 30 – 120 m³/h; integrated bins, weighing and mixer on a wheeled chassis; fast mobilisation between sites.
- Precast and special: Planetary mixer with bucket line or concrete distribution car for precast factories; winterisation enclosure and aggregate heating for cold climates.
Automation and Quality Control
- Control system: PLC + PC fully automatic production; recipe management, moisture correction, automatic sequential dosing, manual override screen.
- Reporting: Batch-based production and consumption reports, delivery-note integration, ERP connection; EN 206 traceability requirements.
- Quality: Consistency tracking via mixer power measurement, aggregate moisture sensors, calibration-certified load cells; low standard deviation concrete.
- Remote access: Secure remote connection for production tracking and service support.
Auxiliary Systems
- Cement silo filters, level sensors, pressure-relief valves and venting; silo filling line.
- Recycling unit: separation of transit-mixer washout water and residual concrete into aggregate and slurry water, returned to the system.
- Water and admixture tanks, cooling (chiller/ice) or heating (steam/hot water) systems; thermal oil or steam boiler integration for aggregate heating.
- Integrated installation with crushing and screening plants for aggregate supply.
Typical Application Range
- Capacity: 30 – 240 m³/h (compacted concrete); single or twin mixer
- Aggregate bins: 3 – 6 compartments, 50 – 200 m³; cement silos 50 – 500 t, 2 – 6 units
- Weighing accuracy: aggregate ±1%, cement and water ±0.5%, admixture ±1% (EN 206)
- Standards: CE Machinery Directive, EN 206, national ready-mix quality requirements, EN 12390 sampling
Why NEO MAKİNA?
The plant is engineered for production target, aggregate source, site layout and climate; steel structure, bins, mixer, silos, automation and recycling unit are manufactured and installed from a single source. Mixer replacement, automation renewal and capacity upgrades are carried out at existing plants; for combined facilities with asphalt plants see Asphalt Plants and Concrete Batching Plants.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which capacity should I choose?
Daily delivery target, transit-mixer fleet and peak-hour demand decide; a 100 m³/h plant produces 600–900 m³ per day. A twin-mixer design provides redundancy.
Twin-shaft or planetary mixer?
Twin-shaft for ready-mix and high capacity; planetary for precast, architectural concrete, dry mixes and small batches.
How long does installation take?
Excluding foundations, manufacturing of a 100 m³/h stationary plant takes 8–12 weeks, erection and commissioning 3–5 weeks; compact and mobile plants are erected in 1–2 weeks.
