Batch plants are the most common type of concreting plant, designed to produce concrete in specific, measured amounts. These plants operate by mixing all the ingredients—cement, aggregates, water, and additives—in separate batches. This method allows for precise control over the mix's composition, ensuring consistency and quality.
