In construction, it refers to masonry mortar when building bricks; it refers to plastering mortar when plastering and leveling walls; it refers to tile-bonding mortar when bonding tiles; it refers to thermal insulation mortar when doing thermal insulation work on the exterior or interior walls of buildings.
In the traditional construction process, many countries use to transport building materials such as cement and wet sand to the construction site by engineering vehicles for humidification and mixing. The disadvantages are very obvious. Firstly, sand and cement cause a lot of dust and pollute the environment during transportation and stacking at the construction site. Secondly, due to the mixing of sand and cement on site, the quality of mortar is extremely unstable due to inaccurate measurement and uneven proportioning, resulting in insufficient strength of mortar and high shrinkage, which often leads to cracking, crusting, seepage, poor solidification and other establishment quality problems.
A dry mortar plant, dry mortar mixing plant, dry mix mortar plant, or dry-mixed mortar mixing plant is a factory for producing mortar. Among them, masonry mortar and plastering mortar are mostly station-type, tower-type, or ladder-type mortar mixing equipment due to their huge usage. Most of the large mortar production lines use bulk cement dried sand and bulk fly ash as the main aggregates. In addition, it adds water retention and thickening of HPMC and improves the toughness, and plasticity of the dispersible glue powder. After fully automatic batching, mixing, and storage, it is transported to the construction site by bulk mortar transportation truck, and then pneumatically transported to the movable mortar storage silo at the construction site. It can be used when mixing with water during construction.
Other types of mortar, such as thermal insulation mortar, tile caulking, tile mortar, waterproof mortar, repair mortar, etc., are mostly produced by stepped small mortar production lines.
Special purpose products, such as thermal insulation mortar, tile adhesive, ceramic tile mortar, waterproof mortar, self-leveling mortar, repair mortar, etc., mostly use medium-sized mortar production lines or small mortar production lines. The finished products produced are shipped in bags, and after factory production, batching, mixing, and packaging, they are finally shipped to construction sites. Some products are also sold in the building materials and decoration market.
To summarize, dry mortars and dry mortars are divided into various types according to their different uses. Masonry mortars and plastering mortars are widely used in construction projects and are usually produced in bulk form and transported to the construction site after factory manufacturing. The capacity of large mortar production lines and equipment usually ranges from 20 to 80 tons per hour, which is fully capable of meeting the demands of factory production. Other special types of mortar, due to lower demand, are usually produced with medium or small mortar equipment, and the finished product is usually sold in bags.
