Gents,can you please explain how a wet batch is quicker than a dry batch.I have worked in both wet and dry batch plants for over 25 yrs and can only say that the fastest batch plants I ever worked in were all dry batch...190 cube/hr single load bay.I punished a wet batch plant on a particular day and only managed 162 cube/hour with a 6.0cube drum!So can you please explain your comment.
i'm not sure on the possibilities of having a premixed load ready for a truck, but the plant we have (mix in the truck) does allow you to pre weigh everything before the truck even backs under so as soon as the mixer is under the plant you can begin the discharge. If a wet batch plant allowed you to pre mix everything it may be faster, especially if you could have a larger wet mixer, maybe 15-20 cy ready at a time, of course this would only work if you had the same mixes batching back to back
tell me the advantage to pre-mixing in the drum and then discharging in the truck...and secondly..can you have a premixed load ready for a mixer so as soon as he backs under it can be discharged?
