What is Dry Mix Mortars

Dry Mix Mortars are construction materials mainly comprising of Cement, Sands and Chemical additives precisely weighed and mixed in a factory. This mix is termed as mortar and is packed in bags. Several types of MORTARS can be formulated in a dry mix plant.

Today where speed and time play an important part of any construction project DRY MIX MORTARS offer the perfect solution. Advantages are consistent quality, controlled inventory, savings in time and labour costs.

Complete Automation based on PLC systems
The entire operations of our plants can be precisely controlled by a centrally located PLC electronic panel. Right from raw material storage to final finished product can be carried out by a single operator. Each stage of production, i.e. administration of formulas, entry of orders etc., is monitored and displayed. We also offer semi automatic control stations in cases where labor factors are not a constraint. Tailor made systems are offered depending on level of automation and investment available.

Mixers

The Plough Type
The plough type mixer creates a fluidized effect whereby the mass is subjected to three dimensional mixing. Choppers are installed to create the fluidizing effect as well as to breakdown any agglomerates present in the batch. These mixers have a short mixing time and are power intensive.

The Ribbon Type
A conventional and reliable mixer which employs the use of helical ribbons to ensure multidirectional mixing of the mass. The mixing time is longer as compared to the plough mixer but the quality of mixing is as good. These mixers consume less power.

Paddle Type
A quick efficient mixer where mixing time required is less then 3mins/batch. Recommended for mixing of different solids having fine particle size and varying bulk densitites.

Conveying Elevators
S F ENGINEERINGWORKS offer various types of conveying elevator depending on the plant layout and site conditions such as screw conveyors, bucket conveying elevators, pneumatic conveyors and dense phase conveyors. All conveying systems are integrated and linked to the main plant electronically.
