Dry Mortar Plant- the complete FAQs

What is dry mortar ?

Dry mortar are the construction materials mixed by sands, cement, fly ash and other powders or additives. If you worked a in building project or a house decoration project. You will see many 20KG, 25 KG or 40 KG bagged dry mortar like tile adhsives, maonsary motor, wall putty mortar, thermal insulation mortar, ready-mix plaster, even thermoplastic road marking paint filler. Besides of the dry bag mortar, the trailer mortar truck can loaded the bulk mortar in a huge tank of 30CBM, 40CBM, 50CBM, 60CBM, etc.

About the recipe of dry mortars,you should pay your attentions as below:

• Any technical request could be realized by different ingredients in dry mortars
• The better of the remixability of the ingredients, the better performance of the dry mortar.
• The ingredients are different because of the environment of the construction sites like the rainy seasons and the hot seasons.
• The reasonable price, lower cost can also get the good performance.
• Try to make the ingredients simple, the experience and the trial run will help you.
• The trial run is different from the bulk using in work site. Make adjustment to get the proper ingredients suit to the construction sites.

What is dry mortar plant?

From the name “dry mortar plant” we will know that it is a kind of equipment that could produce the dry mortar. Whatever the mini dry mortar production line or the huge dry mortar factory. The whole line totally includes raw materials storage system, weighing system, mixing system, packing system, dust collecting system, end product store system and control system.

By output and operation, three families of dry mortar plants are:

Mini dry mortar production line– With the capacity 1-8 TPH, the mini dry mortar production line is consist of material feeder, one level screw conveyor, belt screw mixer, second screw conveyor, finished products silo, automatic packing machine, control cabinet and air compressor.

Semi-auto dry mortar mix plant– With the capacity of 10-40 TPH, the semi-auto dry mortar manufacturing plant is composed of bucket elevator, weighing system, redy-mix silo, twin-shaft mixer, pre-packing silo, automatic packing machine.

Full-auto dry mortar plant– with the output from 10-100 TPH, the full-auto dry mortar plant have the perfect structure is that Raw materials silos, screw conveyors, bucket elevator, weighing system, redy-mix silo, twin-shaft mixer, pre-packing silo, automatic packing machine, automatic palletizers.

The advantages of full-auto dry mortar plant as below:

*The formulations could be adjusted slightly and precisely by your real situations and detailed requests.

*The PLC control system will give the whole line full automatic operations. The touch screen will give you a “what you see is what you get” experience.

*The automatic palletizers will give the total plant high-efficincy and make the full output of the dry mortar plant.

*The raw materials storage silos saving the feeding time also make the quantities of labors as less as possible.

The sections of dry mortar plant

The parts of the automatic dry mortar plant as below:
* Storage system-Raw materials silos, normally the standard 100 tons cement silos are the main storage devices. Sands, cement, fly ash and other request raw materials were lifted to the silos by bucket elevators.
* Weighing system– The materials step by step go into the weighing silo and scaled. Sometimes the other additives have the separate weighing bin.
* Mixing system– Non-gravity twin-shaft mixer with the excellent sealing, Mn13 Alloy blades, planetary cycloidal reducer and copper core motors make sure the durability and stability of the mixer.
* Automatic packing system-The valve packing machine fill the bags with phneumatic system with the range from 10-50 Kgs. The machine have the capacity of 6-10 seconds per bag packing.
* Bulk loading system– The powder loading sytem will be used when you need to fill the Tile adhsive to the tank. The flexible pipe could down to the tank from 1500MM-2500MM.

The application of dry mortar plants

Wall putty is generally a white cement based fine powder that is created into a smooth mixture and applied to the walls before painting.There are some difference between interior wall putty and exterior wall putty. You can change the recipe by setting the parameters of the recipe.

Tile adhesives is along with thin-set mortar, is used to stick tile to wall or floor surfaces before grouting. Tile adhesives mainly includes sands, cement, the additives normally are cellulose, emulsion powder, etc.

Masonry Mortar is a workable paste which hardens to bind building blocks such as stones, bricks, and concrete masonry units, to fill and seal the irregular gaps between them, spread the weight of them evenly, and sometimes to add decorative colors or patterns to masonry walls. The masonry mortar mostly consist of sands, cement, lmestone powder, etc。

Ready-mix plaster is kind of normal dry mortar consist of the limestone powder, sand and other additives. Its main features compared other dry mortar is that 70% even more of its recipe is the powder materials.

Thermoplastic road marking paint is mainly used for more than 2 level road and highway.The thickness of lines made from this coating is (1.0 ~ 2.5) mm, paint mixed with reflective glass beads, and in the construction, spread the reflective glass beads on the surface. Thermoplastic road marking paint normally produced with 60-70% limestone powder, some glass bead, some petroleum resin and some other additives.

Thermal insulation mortar is a kind of premixed dry powder mortar which is made of various light material as aggregate, cement , mixed with some modified additives, and mixed by the production enterprise. The utility model is mainly used for building external wall insulation, and has the advantages of convenient construction and good durability.

What dry mortar plant suit your request?

1-8 TPH mini dry mortar ae production line matche the compact work site, limited buget, own use and some for selling.

10-40 TPH dry mortar plant suit the enough work space, bigger investment, the own big project using or the construction materials manufacturers and suppliers in your local.

The motors and reducers in dry mortar mix plants

The important section of a motor is the core. There are some aluminium core meanwhile some copper core. That is the 100% copper core in our motors that installed on our dry mortar plants.
The reducers are used in the dry mortar mix plants are generally two types the gear reducser and the cycloidal planetary reducer. The cycloidal reducer have the smaller size, 2-3 times durability than gear reducer. Ther are cycloidal reducers in our dry mortar plants.

Should I choose the automatic palletizer?

If you use the mini dry mortar manufacturing line, basically no need to use the automatic palletizer.
If the output of your dry mortar factory is more than 10TPH meanwhile there have no extra labors to use, you can choose the automatic palletizer.

The transport of dry mortar plants

Mini dry mortar plant normally need one 20 feet container to load.
A semi-auto dry mortar mix plants request the 1.5-4 sets 40 feet containers to transport.
A full-auto dry mortar plant demand 3-10 pieces 40 feet containers to ship.

The price of dry mortar plants

Mini dry mortar plant price range is 4,000-8,000 USD.
A semi-auto dry mortar mix plant price range is 12,000-40,000 USD.
A full-auto dry mortar plant cost range is 30,000-500,000 USD.
