Alquezar finishes the start-up of a modular concrete unit for General de Hormigones
The start-up of a modular concrete plant, acquired by the group, General de Hormigones S.A. ended in March last.
This plant is manufactured entirely in modules, so that it can easily be dismantled later, transported and assembled at another work site, thus minimising the times and resources necessary to carry out these operations.
Alquezar has firmly committed to the modular concept for concrete batching installations. The different parts of the installation are designed and manufactured in self-supporting structure modules. These are submitted to pre-assembly in factory, in order to verify the compatibility of all the parts and avoid future problems in the final assembly. This modular design means that the elements can be transported with standardised means (platforms, containers and flat-racks) and that the unit can finally be quickly assembled.

The General de Hormigones S.A. plant is a horizontal station, with enclosure for structure, hoppers and conveyor belts. It has one ready mix concrete production line and two dosed concrete lines, with maximum productions of 120 m3/h dosed concrete and 100 m3/h ready mix concrete.
The installation incorporates a double shaft horizontal mixer, with 3 m3 cycle capacity. The aggregates are stockpiled in 4 25-m3 hoppers, and the cement in 2 100-ton silos.
