Ready mix concrete batching plant cost is related with the the layout, the actual working environment and the requirement of produced concrete. According to the layout methods, ready mix concrete plants are basically divided into three types: vertical, horizontal, and mobile type. The price of each layout method are different.

1. Vertical type.
Vertical type is also called gravity type, tower type or single step type. Its feature is that the mixing material only needs to be lifted once, and then dropped to various processes by gravity. This type of concrete mixing plant has its advantages of high efficiency, small footprint, easy to implement automation. And its disadvantages are: the structure is complicated, the manufacturing cost is high, and the installation height is high.
2. Horizontal type.
Horizontal is also called horizontal, low-order and double-order. Different from the vertical type, in the horizontal ready mix concrete plant, the material needs to be lifted twice, the material is first lifted to the storage hopper, and the material is weighed and then added to the mixer.
The advantages of horizontal ready mix concrete batching plant are simple structure, low investment and small building height. The disadvantages are: The material needs to be upgraded twice, with low efficiency and low degree of automation.
3. Mobile type.
The mobile concrete batching plant ready mix combines the loading, storage, weighing, mixing and unloading devices on the same base. The advantages of this type of ready mix concrete plant equipment are compact structure, small footprint, easy installation, and high degree of automation, thus reducing the conveying distance of concrete and improving economic performance. Widely used in roads and bridges, construction, water conservancy, power and other infrastructure construction. Of course, this kind of mobile ready mix concrete batching plant cost is a little high than the other two types.
