Stabilized soil

Stabilized soil is a mixture of lime, cement, coal ash, soil, sand, and other aggregates.

Classification

Stabilized soil mixing plants can be classified into two kinds - portable stabilized soil mixing plant and stationary stabilized soil mixing plant. The portable stabilized soil mixing plant has wheels on each part, it can be driven by a trailer, but it has low productivity. The stationary one has larger productivity but is less flexible, and needs a firm groundwork.

Operating principle

All the aggregates like lime, sand, soil, coal ash, and other stuff are loaded into the batching hoppers by the loading machine. After measuring, the belt feeder transports the aggregates into mixing device. Meanwhile, stabilizing powders like lime, cement and others are transferred from powder material warehouse to the batch hopper by spiral conveyor, and then moved to the belt feeder by powder material feeder. All the ingredients are going to the mixing device for final processing. At last, the feeding belt conveyor is waiting for the final product to deliver it to the storage warehouse.
