Recently, Zoomlion has achieved a significant breakthrough in the concrete mixing plant sector, with its hydraulic-type mixing plant now unlocking new application possibilities for water conservancy projects. During the construction of the Guanyin Reservoir in Zunyi, Guizhou Province, a key water conservancy initiative, Zoomlion’s mixing plant has consistently supplied high-quality concrete, earning widespread praise from clients.
The hydraulic-type mixing plant, specially designed for water conservancy projects, prevents concrete cracking by precisely controlling the temperature of the crushed concrete at the machine’s exit. This ensures that the concrete maintains excellent performance and meets the rigorous safety standards required for water conservancy infrastructure. During the development phase, Zoomlion’s engineering team meticulously reviewed and calculated the technical parameters related to ice-making, ice storage, and chiller units. They also designed a comprehensive system for the interface between aggregate air-cooling, ice scale, and aggregate scale. With a complete supply chain and years of expertise in mixing plants and construction, Zoomlion has successfully developed this hydraulic mixing plant system to meet the specific needs of water conservancy projects both domestically and internationally.
Addressing challenges such as large particle sizes of crushed concrete aggregates, low water content, and high mixing complexity, Zoomlion’s hydraulic-type mixing plant underwent extensive research, optimization, and improvements. The plant is equipped with a shovel-type, high-efficiency, energy-saving mixing machine, which boasts a compact design, ample mixing space, and easy maintenance. The mixing arms are strategically arranged at 90° intervals, significantly boosting mixing efficiency. Additionally, the customized power design of the mainframe enhances mixing strength, ensuring top-quality concrete production. To improve durability, the machine’s blades are crafted from wear-resistant materials, with reinforced areas to reduce wear, while thickened aggregate bin liners provide additional resilience to the plant.
The Guanyin Reservoir, a major national water conservancy project, will play a key role in supporting rural revitalization and promoting high-quality economic and social development in the region upon its completion. Throughout the project, Zoomlion’s mixing plant has been praised by local customers in Guizhou for its excellent quality and reliable performance. According to one customer, since its installation, the Zoomlion mixing plant has operated stably and efficiently, delivering fast material mixing, which has been crucial for maintaining both the construction progress and quality standards of the project.
Today, Zoomlion has built a strong reputation across various sectors, including high-speed rail engineering stations, highway engineering stations, commercial mixing stations, PC stations, and pipe pile stations. The company continues to expand its horizons by successfully unlocking new application scenarios, such as mobile engineering stations, UHPC stations, and offshore platform stations. These efforts have propelled Zoomlion’s market share in mixing stations to the forefront of the industry, solidifying its position as a market leader. With its unwavering commitment to continuous innovation, Zoomlion is driving technological advancements in the industry, making a significant contribution to the high-quality development of China’s concrete machinery sector.
