While visiting ELKON’s stand at the exhibition Inter mat 2018 in Paris, a French manufacturer of concrete lego blocks, that is also engaged in stone and earthworks, shared his plan on acquiring a concrete batching plant. Exhibited on the stand a semi-mobile compact concrete batching plant ELKOMIX-60 Quick Master, made a very good impression on a customer. The opportunity not only to discover all the features and characteristics of the plant but also to look into the technical details of exhibited ELKOMIX-60 Quick Master allowed to compare ELKON with other European concrete batching plants suppliers. ELKON team’s professional approach, detailed information on products were factors that affected on the customer’s decision. So, his choice was ELKOMIX-120 Quick Master equipped with 2 cu m twin-shaft mixer, skip hoist system and 4 aggregate storage bins with a capacity of 20 cu m each, which allow building a one-sided ramp. Three cement silos of 75 tons each, were installed on the site as well.

High requirements imposed by France on quality of concrete and equipment resulted in the integration of optional facilities such as sand moisture sensors, automatic high-pressure mixer cleaning system, mixer protection systems, accurate water- and additive feeding systems. To protect mixer against weather conditions and to limit the impact on the environment, the mixer block and weighing batchers were covered with a galvanized metal and polycarbonate sheets, the filter was also installed on the mixer block. Moreover, maximum galvanization was applied to parts and components including aggregate storage bin panels, discharging gates, cement, water and additive weighing batchers, skip bucket, all maintenance platforms and tracks, stairs, railings, and sidings.

Successfully commissioned ELKOMIX-120 Quick Master concrete batching plant provides a possibility to produce up to 720 cu m daily of high-quality concrete. ELKON technical assistance service will constantly support the smooth operation of the plant.
