| An operating installation of equipment including batchers and mixers as required for batching or for batching and mixing concrete materials; also called mixing plant when equipment is included.
|
| A rotating drum mixer that discharges by tilting the drum about a fixed or movable horizontal axis at right angles to the drum axis; the drum axis may be horizontal or inclined while charging and mixing.
|
| A cylindrical or annular mixing compartment having an essentially level floor and containing one or more vertical rotating shafts to which blades or paddles are attached; the mixing compartment may be stationary or rotate about a vertical axis.
|
| A machine used for blending the constituents of concrete, grout, mortar, cement paste, or other mixtures.
|
| That part of a gas-welding or oxygen-cutting torch wherein the gases are mixed prior to combustion.
|
| The time taken for a complete cycle in a batch mixer.
|
| separate faucets having a common spout providing control of the water temperature.
|
| Rotation rate of a mixer drum or of the paddles in an open-top, pan, or trough mixer, when mixing a batch; expressed in revolutions per minute, or in peripheral feet per minute of a point on the circumference at maximum diameter.
|
| The period during which the constituents of a batch of concrete are mixed by a mixer; for a stationary mixer, time is given in minutes from the completion of mixer charging until the beginning of discharge.
|
| A valve that permits mixing of liquids or a liquid and a gas.
|
| The water in freshly mixed sand-cement grout, mortar, or concrete, exclusive of any previously absorbed by the aggregate.
|
| A truck-mounted mixer consisting of a trough or a segment of a cylindrical mixing compartment within which paddles or blades rotate about the horizontal axis of the trough.
|
| The assembled, blended, co-mingled ingredients of mortar, concrete, or the like; or the proportions for their assembly.
