Introducing New Mobile & Containerised Concrete Mixing Plants
5th December 2011Parker Plant has further extended its concrete plant portfolio. Complimenting the existing static and low profile concrete plants, the company has introduced a new range of mobile and containerised plants.
The new mobile range covers 40, 50, 60 and 80 m³ capacities in either wet (pan or twin shaft) or dry mix models while the containerised range covers 20 and 30 m³ models in either wet (pan) or dry mix models.
Mobile ConStar 1500:
With a production capacity of up to 50m³/hr, theConStar 1500 fully mobile concrete batching plant meets all the requirements for small to medium size contractor where there is a need for ready-mix or pre-cast concrete produced to high quality standards.
Semi-trailer towing is easily achieved as the integral control cabin hinges upwards within the main structure for transport. The chassis mounted 35m³ cement silo can be supplemented with either vertical or mobile horizontal silos giving additional capacity and/or greater mix design.Containerised ConStar 750C:
With a smaller production capacity of 30m3/hr theConStar 750C also meets all the requirements for small to medium sized projects where there is a need for ready-mix or pre-cast concrete produced to the highest quality standards.
The unique skip weighing system and folding design of the ConStar 750C eliminates the need for a weigh conveyor and allows the main structure to be transported inside a single 12m (40ft) open top container.Click here to view the new range of concrete plants.
