BINCEN launches automated batching system for concrete plants

Chongqing Bincheng Electrical & Mechanical Technology Co., Ltd. has introduced a high-precision automatic weighing and batching system for concrete plants, built around PLC control and ISO 9001 quality management. The system is designed to improve batching accuracy, support traceable records, and integrate with plant control environments as concrete producers face tighter production and audit demands.

Why it matters: - Concrete plants lose accuracy when manual weighing drifts across shifts and batch counts rise. - BINCEN’s system is designed to reduce that drift with automated batching, traceable records, and real-time data output. - The system also matters for plants that need documented production records for audits, delivery checks, and internal quality control.

What happened: - Chongqing Bincheng Electrical & Mechanical Technology Co., Ltd. released a high-precision automatic weighing and batching system for concrete plants. - The system uses fully automated PLC sequencing instead of operator-dependent measurement. - BINCEN said the system covers the concrete batching process from recipe entry through finished-batch data archiving. - The company has more than 20 years of experience in industrial weighing and measurement technology.

The details: - The system integrates dosing control and mixing production into a closed-loop workflow. - After a recipe is entered, the system starts material feeding, weighs materials, releases them for mixing, transfers finished batches, and archives production data. - The control architecture centers on a PLC and supports master-slave configuration for different plant sizes and layouts. - The platform is built to scale across multiple mix lines and phased expansion programs without requiring a second control system. - The PLC weighing control module supports up to 9–12 or more material channels. - Supported materials include cement, fly ash, sand, stone aggregates, admixtures, and supplementary cementitious materials. - Control signals use 4-20mA analog output. - Communication support includes RS232 and RS485. - A reserved DCS interface is included for centralized plant control environments. - The system can run in field-control mode or program-control mode. - Weighing data uploads in real time during each batching cycle. - Each completed batch generates a printable production report with material quantities, sequence, and timing. - BINCEN says the reports support supplier qualification audits, customer delivery verification, and internal quality review. - The system includes an integrated recipe management module. - Operators can pre-configure multiple mix formulas and switch between them without re-entering material parameters. - The system collects weighing data during production and outputs per-batch records as standardized reports. - The company says concrete mixing station installations and on-site control panel deployments on its website show the recipe management and reporting functions in production use. - BINCEN’s product range also includes truck scales, weighbridges, belt scales, conveyor belt scales, packaging scales, weighing control systems, platform scales, and unattended weighbridge solutions with ANPR license plate recognition integration. - The company holds an ISO 9001 Quality Management System Certificate and a Type Evaluation Certificate. - Equipment installations operate in Uzbekistan, Ghana, Kenya, Somalia, and Vietnam. - The company lists its website as the official website.

Between the lines: - The release positions automated batching as both a production upgrade and a documentation upgrade. - The emphasis on PLC control, real-time uploads, and printable batch records suggests BINCEN is targeting plants that care as much about compliance and traceability as output speed. - The repeated focus on integration standards points to a product aimed at plants upgrading existing systems rather than replacing everything at once.

What's next: - BINCEN says technical specifications, application configurations, and procurement inquiries are available through its website. - Concrete producers evaluating batching upgrades can compare the system against current mix complexity, plant instrumentation, and recordkeeping requirements. - The company’s installed base in multiple international markets may support broader adoption if buyers prioritize traceability and control-system compatibility.
