The Right Mixture Makes the Difference

03. February 2016

Alpha Beton<sup>®</sup> is a great innovation which can be clearly seen as the Alpha Beton<sup>®</sup> System ranks among the finalists for the bauma Innovation Award 2016. Learn more about this at our bauma stand 249 in hall B2.

SBM Mineral Processing offers concrete mixing plants to produce Alpha Beton® in co-operation with the company BT3 Betontechnik. (BT3 Concrete Technology). This unique Alpha Beton® System (Alpha Concrete System) consisting of know-how, admixtures, hardware and software assures producing the optimum concrete on site.

As with cooking you need not only the right "pot" but also the right recipes and ingredients in adequate quality if you want to produce excellent concrete. If only one part is not right, the result will not be satisfying. With Alpha Beton®, this subject is a thing of the past as Alpha Beton® Technologie (Alpha Concrete Technology) requires dosing the admixtures from two components (liquefying and stabilising component) to be able to consider all indicators such as concrete temperature, transport time respectively processing time, and density of recycled water.

High-quality concrete mixing plants made by SBM are ideal for the Alpha Beton® System. Alpha Beton® is an option for mobile and stationary applications as well as for new machines or upgrades of existing plants. The higher the demands on the building, the more important the concrete quality: this is perfected by combining concrete mixing plants made by SBM and the Alpha Beton® System.

Advantages of Alpha Beton®

  • Consistency management: applying the two-component system of the admixtures allows ideal control of the consistencyprocess.
  • Production management: using temperature, humidity and density probes optimises the mixing procedure.
  • Recipe management: optimisations in the field of materials management.
