Concrete
To streamline mixer cleanout, the plant includes a Rapid Jetwash mixer washout system, fitted with 3 spray heads. The system operates at 2000 psi, offering high-pressure cleaning and maintenance of the mixer.
Enhanced control and productivity
The plant is fitted with a Pneutrol Dynamix batching control system, which enables the operator to oversee the entire batching process and offers unlimited recipe storage, manual control via the PC and remote operation. The plant controls are housed in an anti-vandalism control cabin, ensuring security.
Plant automation - user friendly
On the installation process, Hubble remarked, “We had a few minor issues at the start, but everything was taken care of by Keith (head of Rapid installation) and the installation team. Keith was brilliant and guided us through the whole process with organisation, attention to detail and precision. Everything has been no hassle and any minor issues we’ve encountered have been sorted via a quick phone call. Installation was very professional and streets ahead of anything we’ve encountered.”
On the plant, “We’re really pleased with it! We can now be totally self-reliant and have improved quality and service for our current customers and stockists. The new semi-dry machine requires a very accurate mix which would be very difficult to achieve without the Rapid static batching plant, the moisture probe inside the
mixer calculates exactly how much water to add which gives us a fast, consistent and accurate batch every time.”
“The steel work is heavy duty, unlike some of the alternatives in the market which can be really lightweight. It’s nice to see it’s been built properly and it’s clearly going to last. The automation is very clever and user friendly – PIL were excellent. Aftercare has been very good.”
