FAQ

What are the key specifications of this Cemco portable batch plant? +

This professionally refurbished Cemco portable batch plant features:

  • Aggregate System: 2-bin configuration with clean discharge and efficient metering
  • Cement Silo: 58-ton capacity with hydraulic raise/lower system for fast mobilization
  • Power System: Electric-over-hydraulic operation (cleaner and quieter than diesel)
  • Control System: New Jonel Archer batching system with accurate, operator-friendly interface
  • Batch House: Mobile container on tongue-pull chassis trailer, insulated and air-conditioned
  • Dust Collection: Ready with load point hood and 12″ inlet (dust collector not included)

The plant is being fully refurbished and tested by Texoma Industries in Graham, Texas.

What power requirements does this electric-over-hydraulic system have? +

Unlike traditional diesel-powered batch plants, this unit uses an electric-over-hydraulic power system. The system can run on either on-site electrical service or a generator, depending on your jobsite setup. Typically, Cemco plants with electric systems require adequate power supply for hydraulic pumps and the batching controls (which need approximately 20 amp 120 VAC circuit for the control system).

This eliminates diesel engine noise, reduces maintenance requirements, and provides cleaner operation—ideal for urban projects or noise-sensitive environments.

What is the production capacity of this Cemco Portable Concrete Batch Plant? +

While the specific model designation wasn’t provided in the listing, Cemco portable plants typically range from 220 to 340 cubic yards per hour depending on configuration. The 2-bin aggregate system and 58-ton silo capacity indicate this is a mid-range production unit suitable for sustained batching operations.

Production capacity will depend on your specific mix designs, aggregate types, and operational practices. The new Jonel Archer controls optimize batch cycle times for maximum throughput.

How does the Jonel Archer batching system improve performance? +

The new Jonel Archer batching system offers several advantages over older controls:

  • User-Friendly Interface: Simple single key-press operation with color-coded status displays
  • Accurate Batching: Automated controls ensure materials are dosed precisely according to mix specifications
  • Fast Learning Curve: Operators can learn the system in minutes
  • Integrated PLC: Programmable Logic Controller allows comprehensive plant control without complex custom wiring
  • Real-Time Monitoring: Displays current batch status and material levels
  • Alerts & Notifications: System can alert operators to potential issues

This modernized control system significantly reduces operator error and improves batch consistency.

What are the advantages of the electric-over-hydraulic power system? +

The electric-over-hydraulic system provides several operational benefits:

  • Quieter Operation: No diesel engine noise, making it suitable for noise-restricted areas
  • Lower Maintenance: Eliminates diesel engine servicing, oil changes, and fuel system maintenance
  • Cleaner Operation: No diesel exhaust or fuel odors
  • Flexible Power Options: Can run on site power or generator
  • Cost Efficiency: Reduced fuel costs compared to diesel operation
  • Consistent Performance: Electric motors provide reliable, consistent hydraulic power

This makes the plant particularly attractive for urban projects, indoor facilities, or environmentally sensitive sites.

How quickly can this Cemco Portable Concrete Batch Plant be set up and ready to batch? +

Cemco portable plants are designed for rapid deployment. According to manufacturer specifications, two people can typically set up a Cemco plant in under one hour. The setup process includes:

  1. Positioning and leveling the plant using four hydraulic jacks
  2. Hydraulically erecting the cement silo (takes less than 5 minutes)
  3. Connecting water discharge and cement discharge hoses
  4. Connecting three quick-connect control cables and one scale cable
  5. Powering up the control system

It’s common for operators to begin batching concrete the same day the plant arrives on site.

What types of projects is this plant best suited for? +

This portable batch plant is ideal for:

  • Temporary Production Needs: Short-term projects requiring on-site concrete production
  • Large Project Redundancy: Backup batching capacity for critical pours where downtime isn’t acceptable
  • Bridge, Highway & DOT Work: Infrastructure projects requiring controlled, on-site production
  • Wind Farms & Industrial Sites: Remote locations where transporting concrete isn’t practical
  • Seasonal Capacity Increases: Busy seasons requiring extra production capability
  • New Plant Delays: Stop-gap solution while waiting for permanent plant delivery
  • Remote Projects: Locations where establishing a permanent plant isn’t feasible

The portable, self-contained design makes it versatile for various applications and locations.

Can this Cemco Portable Concrete Batch Plant operate in remote locations without existing infrastructure? +

Yes, this is one of the primary advantages of Cemco portable plants. The unit requires minimal infrastructure:

  • Power: Can run on generator if site power isn’t available
  • Setup: No foundation or permanent installation required
  • Mobility: Ships as complete unit on trailer chassis
  • Self-Contained: Includes all necessary systems (scales, controls, hydraulics, batch house)

The only external requirements are power source, water supply, aggregate stockpiles, and cement delivery capability. This makes it perfect for remote construction sites without permanent facilities.

Who provides technical support and training for the Jonel Archer system? +

Jonel provides comprehensive support for their Archer batching system:

  • Phone Support: 1-800-432-4567, Monday-Friday 8am-5pm PST
  • On-Screen Help: Built-in guidance within the system
  • Training Resources: Video tutorials and online documentation
  • Simple Operation: Color-coded displays and single key-press functions minimize training needs

Additionally, Texoma Industries (the refurbisher) should be able to provide plant-specific operational guidance. Confirm training availability with ConcreteIron Concierge when arranging terms.

What site preparation is needed before the Cemco portable concrete batch plant arrives? +

Minimal site preparation is required:

  • Level Ground: Area must be reasonably level (hydraulic jacks compensate for minor variations)
  • Space Requirements: Adequate area for plant, aggregate stockpiles, and truck maneuvering
  • Aggregate Placement: Bins positioned for loader access to feed aggregate into plant bins
  • Power Access: Electrical connection or generator location for plant operation
  • Water Supply: Connection point for water system
  • Cement Delivery Access: Clear path for cement trucks to silo fill point

The dust collection system requires the purchaser to provide their own dust extractor/collector, which connects to the 12″ inlet.

What are the limitations of a 2-bin aggregate system compared to 3- or 4-bin configurations? +

The 2-bin system has specific operational characteristics:

  • Mix Design Flexibility: Limited to two aggregate sizes (typically sand and stone/gravel combinations)
  • Simpler Operation: Fewer bins mean faster batch cycles and easier material management
  • Adequate for Most Work: Suitable for standard concrete mixes used in most commercial construction
  • Not Ideal For: Complex mix designs requiring multiple aggregate gradations or specialty mixes

Most common concrete applications (footings, slabs, structural concrete) work well with 2-bin systems. If your project requires more complex aggregate blending, discuss mix design compatibility before committing.

Can this Cemco Portable Concrete Batch Plant be integrated with existing dispatch or management systems? +

The Jonel Archer batching system offers excellent integration capabilities:

  • Integrated PLC: Allows comprehensive plant control and monitoring
  • Scalable Design: Can integrate with dispatch software, inventory management, and accounting systems
  • FLEX API: Jonel offers flexible API integration for connecting various business applications
  • Standalone Operation: Can also operate independently without external systems
