The CONSTMACH COMPACT 60 represents a breakthrough in concrete batching plant design, specifically engineered for operations facing space limitations without compromising production capacity. This fully automatic concrete plant delivers an impressive 60 m³/h output despite its compact footprint, making it an ideal solution for urban construction sites and projects where every square meter counts.
What sets the COMPACT 60 apart is its flexible aggregate storage configuration. The plant offers two distinct hopper arrangements: linear and square type. In the linear configuration, aggregate bins are positioned similarly to traditional stationary plants, providing straightforward material flow. The square configuration, however, mirrors the layout of mobile batching plants and shares similarities with the COMPACT 30 model. This square arrangement brings a significant logistical advantage—the entire system can be transported using just one tractor-trailer or fits within a standard 40-foot open-top container. This exceptional portability eliminates the transportation headaches typically associated with concrete batching equipment, and the rapid installation process means you can start production faster than with conventional plants.
The COMPACT 60 operates with various mixer types, including twin shaft, single shaft, pan, and planetary configurations. This versatility allows the plant to serve multiple applications, from ready-mixed concrete production to dry mixed concrete and precast operations. Each mixer type brings specific advantages depending on your production requirements, giving you the flexibility to adapt the plant to different concrete specifications and production demands.
Site preparation for the COMPACT 60 is remarkably straightforward. Unlike traditional concrete plants that require extensive foundation work, this model needs only a flat concrete surface capable of supporting its total weight of approximately 18,000 kg. The cement silos come equipped with full steel legs, removing the need for clients to construct concrete support structures. Additionally, metal walls on both sides of the plant simplify the creation of aggregate filling ramps, eliminating another common construction requirement. These design features translate directly into cost savings and faster project initiation.
The control system incorporates premium SIEMENS and SCHNEIDER electronic components paired with advanced PLC technology. The sophisticated software offers an intuitive interface that simplifies operation while providing comprehensive control over the batching process. This automation ensures consistent concrete quality and minimizes the potential for human error during production.
Technical specifications reveal the plant's robust capabilities. The aggregate storage system provides four compartments of 15 m³ each, totaling 60 m³ of material storage. The aggregate weighing hopper holds 1.5 m³, while the 12-meter conveyor system efficiently moves materials through the production cycle. The skip hoist bucket matches this capacity at 1.5 m³, working in coordination with a 1 m³ wet concrete mixer. The cement weighing system handles 600 kg per batch, with water and additive weighing hoppers managing 300 liters and 20 liters respectively. A 300-liter air compressor with 5.5 kW power supports the pneumatic systems, and cement silos are available in capacities ranging from 50 to 200 tonnes based on project requirements.
The plant requires 105 kW total motor power and operates efficiently with a 125 kVA generator. Despite its substantial production capacity, the COMPACT 60 operates within a 300 m² footprint. When configured with the square hopper arrangement, transport dimensions measure just 13 meters in length, 2.3 meters in width, and 2.3 meters in height—specifications that facilitate easy shipping and relocation.
CONSTMACH designed and manufactured the COMPACT 60 in full compliance with CE standards, ensuring it meets European safety and quality requirements. This certification provides assurance of the plant's reliability and adherence to international manufacturing standards. The combination of portability, minimal infrastructure requirements, and quick installation delivers substantial economic advantages to operators, particularly those managing multiple projects or requiring mobile production capabilities. The COMPACT 60 proves that compact design and high-capacity production aren't mutually exclusive—they can work together to create an efficient, cost-effective concrete batching solution.
