There are five different types of batching plants that are manufactured by Schwing Stetter India, which include wheel-trailer/truck mounted, compact plants, mobile plants, and horizontal plants.

Wheel-trailer/truck mounted

The on-wheels concept has been introduced by Schwing Stetter, keeping in mind the easy transportability of the batching plant between sites. This design is available in the 18 m3 segment, which is also known as the ?CP18 on wheels? which can be a trailer or a truck-mounted batching plant.

Compact plants

The compact plant design houses small capacity plants which includes the CP30 (30 m3 productivity rate). This plant is available in star, compartment and in-line Silo configurations.

Mobile plants


The mobile plants are known for its easy assembly and erection at the site like the M0.75, M1, M1.25, M2, M2.25, and M2.5. Wherever construction sites have to be supplied for any length of time with larger quantities of high-quality concrete, mobile mixing plants from Schwing Stetter are ideal. It does not matter whether they are used for the construction of traffic routes, dams, landfills or airports, the M series plants have been designed to handle the task. They can be quickly moved, transported on low-bed semitrailers and quickly set up again, thanks to the fully installed, pre-assembled compact units. The current development status of the Mobile plant benefits from our vast experience worldwide.

Horizontal plants

Stetter horizontal concrete mixing plants H1N, H1.25N, H2.25N, H3N, H4N and H6 incorporate the experience of over 47 year in mixing plant technology. Depending on the requirements, the HN-type series is equipped with a pan mixer or a twin-shaft mixer. While designing the plant, high importance was attached to the access thereby facilitating maintenance. In addition, the generously dimensioned space allows this plant to be offered in a wide variety which can be taken from a modular system. H 5 & H 6 is plants are for mass requirements and can be suited to the individual demands by adapting the design.

Production

Plants made by SSI have an output varying between 18-240 cu m per hour.

Aggregate storage

Schwing Stetter batching plants store aggregates in three different ways: compartment in-line silo, and star /partition walls. With respect to the availability of space on the site the customer can chose the storage option. Schwing Stetter offers compartment type storage in all the compact and mobile plants, the Star type storage is available in the 30 m3 segment. The in line silo/bin storage is available in selected models of compact plants and whereas it is available for all models of horizontal plants.

Mixer technology

The objective of any concrete production is a homogenous mix of concrete, without a homogenous mix one can give way to a series of problems which will be faced by the end users of concrete. There are two mixer technologies which help achieve this homogeneity, they are pan mixer, and twin-shaft mixer.

The turbo pan mixer used by Stetter is famous for the mixing quality thanks to its gearbox driven arms while the twin-shaft mixer is preferred wherever vast quantities of concrete are to be produced. It is also important to understand that all these plants are operated using control systems which range from Semi-Automatic (MCI35) to Fully Automatic (MCI360).
