In general, the batching plant equipment is divided into two categories, stationary concrete batching plant and mobile concrete batching plant. For example, Haomei Machinery has HZS series stationary concrete batching plants and YHZS series mobile concrete batching plants. This is also a classification that is currently distinguished by many manufacturers at the time of production. At present, most of the stationary concrete batch plants also adopt modular and easy-to-splicing design, which is mainly used in large-scale commercial concrete manufacturers or related manufacturers of concrete components, and can be used in large-scale engineering construction, characterized by strong production capacity and stable operation. The mobile concrete batching plant is towed by trailer unit. It has good maneuverability and makes the production more flexible. It is generally used in various small and medium-sized temporary construction projects and can be rented or used for self-use.
 
Besides of the classification of mobile or stationary type, there are many other methods for classify the batching plants.
1. According to the usage, concrete batching plant can be divided into commercial concrete mixing plant and project concrete mixing plant. The commercial concrete mixing plant is based on commercial purposes. It should have high efficiency and economy, while meeting environmental protection requirements. The purpose of the project concrete mixing plant is to use it for own use, and it is necessary to consider whether it is in conformity with the project.
2. According to the layout process, batching plant equipment can be generally divided into first-order and second-order. The first-order refers to lifting sand aggregate and cement at one time to the silo at the top of the batching plant. Various materials are produced according to the production process. and finally discharge from the bottom, the one order is more common used in the large concrete mixing plant. Such a concrete mixing station is divided into silo layer, weighing layer, stirring layer and discharge layer from top to bottom. The stirring efficiency is very high, but the construction is difficult, the demolition is inconvenient, the investment cost is high. Compared to one order, the second order is different, after the aggregate is weighed, it is lifted again to the concrete mixer. Although the cover area is large, the mixing efficiency is slightly lower than the first-order, but it is easy to disassemble and install, the manufacturing cost is low, the installation is easy, it is widely used. After be improved, The production capacity of the second order batching plant equipment can be comparable to the first-order type.
