Accurately Weighing Various Materials

The AG-PLD series aggregate bins are automated concrete production equipment designed to work in conjunction with concrete mixers and other weighing systems. They can automatically and accurately complete the weighing and batching of sand, gravel, and other materials according to the user’s preset concrete mix ratio.

AGICO’s aggregate bins are available in three types: independent weighing aggregate bins, cumulative weighing aggregate bins, and continuous production aggregate bins. Each type has its own advantages, making them suitable for different concrete plant infrastructures and capacity requirements. Our concrete batching machines feature large-capacity storage and high-precision weighing, with the number of aggregate bins customizable according to client needs. They are not only applicable to various types of concrete batching plants but also widely used in stabilized soil mixing plants, cement-stabilized base plants, and aggregate base mixing stations, meeting production requirements across diverse engineering projects.

Highlights of AGICO Aggregate Bins

Extra-Large Storage Capacity

The storage bins are designed with large volumes, which can reduce the frequency of loading and lower labor and machinery input.

They are equipped with protective screens that effectively prevent oversized aggregates from entering the mixing host, ensuring safe and reliable operation.

The feeding width can reach up to 3100 mm, making it suitable for large loaders.

High-Precision Weighing System

The bins adopt high-performance weighing sensors to ensure accurate, stable, and reliable measurement.

They support simultaneous weighing of more than three aggregates, featuring short weighing times and high efficiency.

The system uses direct sensor-based weighing with microcomputer control and digital display, which makes the operation simple and convenient.

Each bin is equipped with a vibrator to ensure quick weighing and fast discharge.

The weighing system is calibrated before leaving the factory to guarantee accuracy.

Efficient Conveying & Discharging System

The conveying belt uses an endless ring belt that provides long service life and high durability.

A baffle cover is installed at the belt head to prevent material spillage.

The tail section is equipped with a screw tensioning device that allows the belt tension to be adjusted at any time.

The pneumatic discharge system comes with an opening adjustment device and an anti-jamming design to ensure smooth discharge.

A heavy-hammer head cleaner is used to clean the belt effectively without adjustment.

Modular Structural Design

The modular and highly integrated design makes maintenance and relocation more convenient and efficient.

The overall structure is rational, strong in rigidity, and visually appealing.

It can be combined with AG-JS series mixers or other hosts to form simple or standard batching plants.

Multiple structural forms are available to meet container shipping and highway transportation requirements.

The top panels can be lowered or removed as needed, which significantly reduces feeding intensity and improves convenience.

Intelligent Automatic Control

The advanced batching control system is easy to operate and can be conveniently controlled remotely.

It can automatically complete the precise batching of sand and stone aggregates according to preset concrete mix ratios.

The weighing system is calibrated to ensure accurate measurement of each batch.

The system supports intelligent adjustment and operation, which improves production efficiency.

Environmentally Friendly & Energy-Saving Design

The bins can be customized with environmental enclosures and dust recovery systems to meet environmental protection requirements.

The design helps reduce dust emissions and keeps the construction site clean.

Our Aggregate Bins for Sale

AGICO’s aggregate bins adopt a linear “I-shaped” structure, with both the storage hoppers and weighing hoppers designed with pneumatic sector gates. Our bins support precise proportioning of three or more materials, equipped with an electronic weighing system to ensure stable and reliable concrete quality.

The discharge section is fitted with a trough-shaped belt conveyor driven by a rubber-coated drum motor, ensuring smooth and reliable operation. The top panel is designed for flexibility, allowing removal or lowering to significantly reduce feeding intensity and improve operational convenience—making it an ideal choice for producing high-quality concrete

Aggregate Bin with Independent Weighing

Working Principle

Each aggregate bin is equipped with a corresponding weighing hopper. During operation, cylinders first open the discharge gates of the aggregate bins, allowing materials to fall into the weighing hoppers. High-precision sensors suspended on the hoppers continuously monitor the material weight, and the intelligent control system automatically adjusts the gate openings accordingly. Once all hoppers have been weighed, the lower discharge gate opens, and materials are transported via conveyor belt to the next processing stage.

Features

Advanced Design:

Simple structure, easy installation, and convenient maintenance.

High Productivity:

Maximum batching capacity up to 280 m³/h, suitable for various medium and large concrete batching plants.

Full Automation:

Automatically completes sand and gravel batching according to preset concrete mix ratios, ensuring precise proportions and improving concrete quality.

Aggregate Bin with Cumulative Weighing

Working Principle

Belt-type cumulative weighing system:

In this system, the conveyor belt is suspended on high-precision weighing sensors, eliminating the need for independent weighing hoppers. During operation, cylinders sequentially open the aggregate bin valves, allowing materials to fall directly onto the belt. The sensors accumulate the weight, and once all materials are weighed, the belt transfers them to the next stage.

Hopper-type cumulative weighing system:

This system includes one weighing hopper and multiple aggregate bins. Materials from each bin are sequentially delivered via belt to the weighing hopper. After weighing, materials are conveyed through the hopper’s lower belt to the next processing unit.

Features

High-precision Weighing:

Uses electronic sensors to ensure accurate mix ratios.

Durable and Reliable:

Robust structure, easy maintenance, suitable for long-term high-intensity production.

High Capacity:

Supports batching three or more types of aggregates simultaneously, with capacities ranging from 48–280 m³/h.

Wide Applicability:

Suitable for concrete batching plants, mortar stations, and high-demand concrete production.

Aggregate Bin for Continuous Production

Working Principle

This system controls material flow using flow measurement and adjusts belt speed via a variable frequency motor for precise material delivery. It supports uninterrupted, continuous production, ideal for high-capacity construction projects. With high-precision sensors and intelligent control algorithms, AGICO continuous batching machines can keep batching errors within 5%, and the number of aggregate bins can be customized to meet client requirements, enhancing flexibility and efficiency.

Features

High-efficiency Production:

Continuous feeding without stopping, significantly increasing output.

Customizable Bins:

Number of aggregate bins can be designed according to customer needs.
