As an indispensable equipment in construction projects, concrete mixing plants need to strictly follow a series of precautions during their operation to ensure construction safety and improve project quality. Below, we will provide a detailed introduction to the precautions that need to be taken during the operation of the concrete mixing plant.

1、 Preparation work before operation

Before operating the concrete mixing plant, sufficient preparation work is required. Firstly, it is necessary to check whether all components of the equipment are intact and undamaged, such as the mixing cylinder, motor, transmission device, etc. Secondly, it is necessary to ensure the stability of the foundation of the mixing plant and prevent equipment from shaking or tilting during operation. In addition, it is necessary to check whether the power supply line is safe and reliable, and whether the water source is sufficient and clean.

2、 Precautions during operation

1. Strictly follow the mixing ratio for ingredients. The mix proportion of concrete is determined based on engineering requirements, material properties, and other factors. Operators must strictly follow the mix proportion for batching and cannot change it arbitrarily. At the same time, regular quality inspections should be conducted on raw materials to ensure that they meet standard requirements.

2. Control the mixing time and speed. Mixing time and mixing speed are key factors affecting the quality of concrete. A short mixing time may lead to uneven concrete, while a long mixing time may cause segregation of the concrete. Therefore, operators should control the mixing time and speed reasonably based on the concrete mix ratio and equipment performance.

3. Keep the equipment clean. The concrete mixing plant is prone to generating dust and dirt during operation. Operators should regularly clean the dust and dirt inside and outside the equipment to maintain its cleanliness. At the same time, attention should also be paid to the lubrication and maintenance of the equipment to ensure that it is in good operating condition.

4. Pay attention to safe operation. During the operation of concrete mixing plants, significant noise and vibration are generated. Operators should wear protective equipment such as earplugs and gloves to prevent damage to the body caused by noise and vibration. In addition, during the operation process, attention should be maintained and it is strictly prohibited to operate under the influence of alcohol or fatigue.

3、 Cleaning work after operation

After the operation of the concrete mixing plant is completed, cleaning work needs to be carried out. Firstly, it is necessary to clean the residual concrete inside the mixing tank to prevent damage to the equipment after the concrete has hardened. Secondly, it is necessary to clean all components of the mixing plant to ensure the cleanliness and hygiene of both the internal and external parts of the equipment. Finally, it is necessary to check whether all components of the equipment are intact and undamaged. If there is any damage, it should be replaced or repaired in a timely manner.
