General Questions

Does your plant require any inputs or outputs that are not 120V? Yes No

Do you want to use Metric or Avoirdupois (US) measurements for batching?
What is your maximum SINGLE batch capacity of your plant?

Are your scales digital? Yes No

What volumes do you produce on your busiest days?
Water & Admix Questions

Do you Weigh your water or use a Pulse Meter?

Which of the following waters do you use?

Hot Cold Reclaim

Do you use a water reservoir?

Yes No

When does your water go into the mix?

Do you use "Hold Back" water?

Yes No

Who is your Admixture supplier (Masterbuilders, Grace etc)

Central Mix, Pre-Cast & Block Plant Questions

Do you have a mixer (other than truck? If so what is it?

Do you have more than 1 mixer? If yes, how are they charged?

What input/outputs are required to charge your mixer? (ie. start, tilt, discharge) Please explain, and list the order these operations occur in.

How many different mix cycles do you have?

How should "pause" and/or "error" conditions effect the duration of the mix time? Should the mixer ever be turned off when concrete is still in it?

Once the discharge is completed to you want it to start or notify some other piece of machinery in the plant? If so what?

Do you want the batch system to "Weigh Ahead" the next batch while the current batch is being mixed?
