Batching systems - Import export

ELKON, with its tailor made precast concrete plants commissioned all over the world, offers high quality solutions for precast industry wherever concrete is needed. ELKON precast concrete batching plants are used for production of precast concrete products such as concrete pipes, concrete paving blocks, hollowcore, etc. They can be equipped with one mixer or more in various capacities and can be specially designed according to factory layout, product type and concrete transfer method. ELKON precast concrete batching plants general features Custom-tailored solution to accommodate exact needs of project Custom-made design according to factory layout Completely customizable concrete transfer system High weighing accuracy Optimized concrete production and concrete transfer for the project with special automation system Continuous and high quality concrete production

HIGH SPEED CONCRETE TRAVELLING BUCKETS ELKON high speed concrete travelling bucket is designed to deliver the concrete in the fastest way to the application point in the precast production. While the speed of normal concrete travelling buckets is 0,5 m/s, the speed of high-speed concrete travelling bucket is 2,5 m/s.

The application range includes everything from processing of viscous components to paste-like products with poor flow. The range of food applications is exceptionally broad and there are also various applications for the pharmaceutical industry. The conical shape permits thorough residue-free discharge. The wet mixer system is a vertical mixing system for batch processes. The geometry of the conical or cylindrical mixing vessel, the arrangement and shape of the tools and their peripheral speed are adapted to each other in all sizes, resulting in effective mixing of all components. Depending on the process engineering tasks, the individual mixing tools are combined to form one tool both for material transport and for dispersion and disagglomeration processes. The installation height in the vessel is adjustable within a wide range. An adjustable deflector can be used to affect the product movement in a systematic fashion.

Until now, the perfume and flavouring industry had hardly any satisfactory solutions for the exact mixing of powdery substances, which often led to weighing errors, blocked valves and production downtimes. The FRICKE PD1 powder dosing system was specially developed to meet these challenges. With a 6 kg scale (1 mg resolution), it automates the dosing of 20 powder components, which are stored in sealed stainless steel containers (10 litres). Various dosing elements and stirrers enable lump-free and dust-free processing. The advantages include high accuracy, reproducibility and simple software integration into the batch management system.

Dosing system for laboratory and small scale production mixes up to 6 kg batch size Space-saving this system combines all advantages of a laboratory dosing system to the production capacity of the larger systems Concordia II – V (C 2 – 5). ■ batch sizes up to 6 kg ■ more than 130 fully automatic mixing recipes during the unattended night shift ■ 7000 dosing cycles per day ■ dosing precision on the 6 kg scale: +/- 5 mg ■ smallest dosable quantity on the 6 kg scale: 20 mg ■ modular design for up to 1000 components ■ barcode assisted dosing ■ high dosing speed through parallel dosing on several scales ■ individual container transport Systems ■ various raw material storage Systems ■ Ex protection according to Atex

It is possible to reliably remove reject boards without aecting the cycles in the rejects area. Acceptable boards continue to be transported towards the cooling turner. The rejected board stack may optionally be equipped with batch and package forming systems. These are for optimising the cooling turner utilisation and are explained in greater detail in the chapter about the ‘Cooling section’. The rejected board stack is equipped with a variable length adjuster or board lifter for the batch and package forming options. Reject boards are removed by lifting the rst belt conveyor. The rejected board stack may be optionally equipped with a buer for forming the reject stacks or with an additional belt conveyor that transports the rejects to the board breaker.
