Utranazz, the concrete equipment specialist, is launching the UK’s most versatile Mobile Volumetric Batching Plant (MVBP) at Hillhead 2010, on stand V15. The Hydromix MVBP has a unique roll-on roll-off system that allows for multiple mounting options. 1. Inside the back of a tipper body, 2. Onto a hook-loader sub-chassis, 3. Skid-mounted for yard use, 4. Permanently mounted onto the back of a lorry. The unit was designed by Utranazz, in conjunction with Bertoli, especially for the UK quarrying and recycling markets and is ideal for use by tipper fleet operators and on-site wet batching companies.
The unit can be rolled into the back of a tipper body or mounted onto a hook-loader sub-chassis in a matter of minutes using the tipper or hook loaders’ own control system. The Hydromix MVBP works completely autonomously, having its own engine, hydraulic pumps, water system and loading/off-loading legs, and can also be skid-mounted and left to work as an independent unit on the jobsite.
As with conventional Volumetric Concrete Mixers, the Hydromix MVBP has 2 separate compartments for aggregates, a cement hopper, a water tank and additive tanks. Available in 2 – 10 cubic metre capacities, it can supply all types of concrete, screed and mortar in volumes from as little as a barrow load up to impressive rates of 60m3 per hour. It is fully radio remote controlled and is fitted with a telescopic discharge belt, capable of discharging at distances of 10m with chutes and slewing through 180 degrees, making on-site pouring easy. The mobility of the unit even allows concrete to be produced and discharged while the plant is moving.
The Hydromix MVBP utilises an extremely accurate computer-controlled weighing system whereby the cement is weighed via load cells, rather than being based on calculated volumes. The result is the production of extremely accurate high-quality concrete, which can enable the user to easily achieve QSRMC accreditation. Using the touch-screen control panel the operator simply inputs details on speed, flow rate and the type and quantity of concrete to be produced (there is the option for 99 stored formulas). Records of all materials batched can be saved onto a USB stick and then downloaded onto a PC, or the operator can simply print off the information using the on-board printer for immediate invoicing.
