Norman Emerson & Sons, a leading Northern Irish supplier of construction materials that includes ready mixed concrete and quarry aggregates, is 316 Rapid International’s first customer to take ownership of the new Rapid Transbatch compact mobile batching plant.
The investment will modernise Norman Emerson & Sons existing ready-mix production facilities at the its site in Ardmore, County Armagh, and is replacing the first batching plant ever built by Rapid, purchased by Norman Emerson & Sons over 40 years ago.
Rapid's Transbatch compact mobile batching plant offers outputs of 40m³, 60m³ and 100m³ per hour. Fully mobile, the Transbatch features stairs and access walkways which fold and dismantle for transport in a single load, road towable unit. Fast set up in as little as five days with no foundation requirements helps to ensure that project timescales are met.
Transbatch features four 10m³ aggregate bins with pneumatic discharge doors, a 1,000mm weighing belt and a 1.75tonne cement weigh hopper with aeration and pneumatic vibrator. The plant includes a built-in control room positioned at the truck loading area and an automatic control system with load cells, starter panel and pneumatics panel. Twin additive meters with two pumps are also included with the plant, with the option to add extras if required.
At the heart of Transbatch is Rapid's powerful in-built Twin Shaft Mixer, which includes extra thick long wearing chill cast tiles and paddles said to ensure a thoroughly homogenised mix. The Twin Shaft includes an easy to operate discharge door with two independent hydraulic rams.
Rapid's in-house spares department is said to be able to provide Norman Emerson & Sons with all its wearing and replacement parts for the Transbatch, via a fast-track service. High inventory levels and same day dispatch from stock on goods ordered before 11am (UK only) will ensure that the company's spare parts requirements are consistently met in a cost-effective, timely and efficient manner.
As a result of its ease of mobility Transbatch is ideal for remote location projects and general construction projects such as, but not limited to, road building, wind farm bases and warehouse flooring.
