Maintenance tips for a mobile concrete mixing plant

A mobile concrete mixing plant consists of a distributor, a concrete mixer, a cement silo, a screw conveyor, a belt conveyor and a control system. Owing to the fact that a mobile concrete plant does not reply on the civil engineering work, its cement silo is usually replaced by a tank-carrying truck, which is more adaptable to the requirement of frequent site transfer. Detailed tips in maintaining a mobile concrete plant are as below.

1. The maintenance gap period is half a year. You should check whether bolts of connecting parts are tight and reliable. An overall maintenance should be carried out every 4000 working hours.

2. Check the wearing state of large gearing units of a mobile concrete mixing plant, and repair or replace them if necessary.

3. Check whether the speed reducer is smooth enough, and replace it with a new one when necessary.

4. The blades of the concrete mixer can still work as long as they can be adjusted, and the liner board must be replaced once their bolts appear outside them.

5. Check wearing or damage states of relative parts.

6. Make sure that there’s no leakage of water or additive.

7. Supporting components of a mobile concrete plant, such as the electric motor, the gear reduction electric motor, the cylinder, the vibrator, the air filter and so on, should be maintained and repaired according to the normal rail and the reference manufacturer's application.

No steps should be avoided in maintenance of mobile concrete mixing plant, and proper checking guarantees normal and smooth operation of a mobile concrete plant.
