The CEI Fusion™ Hybrid-Process Ready Mix Plant is a concrete batch plant that combines precision aggregate blending with established methods of cement and water metering. The result is a hybrid process that yields graded aggregate blends with fewer voids. The reduced voids require less cement to fill them, allowing the production of better concrete with less cement.
This video shows the operation of the plant’s aggregate blending unit. CEI precision aggregate blending utilizes a series of in-line bins that hold multiple aggregate sizes. Each bin releases to its own dedicated feed conveyor. Belt scales on each feed conveyor monitor the flow of each aggregate in real time. Feed conveyors release to a collecting conveyor that runs underneath. Graded aggregates are precisely blended in layers, and are fully blended before they enter the truck.
This proven technique for blending aggregates has been a standard feature of asphalt plants for over 30 years. CEI has extensive experience in this type of aggregate blending, having produced asphalt plant equipment since 1969. As an Astec Industries company, CEI is also able to leverage the most established and accurate aggregate blending technology available.
