Recently, Shantui Janeoo 4 sets of E3R-120 concrete batching plants have successfully completed the installation and commissioning, and will soon be applied to the construction of the Fourth Bridge project of the Panama Canal.
Shantui Janeoo E3R concrete batching plant adopts modular design, convenient disassembly and assembly, flexible site layout, and can better adapt to the complex working conditions of field construction. The configured mixing host is durable, effectively ensuring the homogeneous production of concrete and meeting different mixing needs. The patented measurement system has a measurement accuracy higher than the national standard by 50%, which provides a reliable guarantee for the construction of the project. The intelligent control system can realize the automatic control and intelligent management of the whole process of concrete production, providing important support for the efficiency upgrade of the project.
During construction in tropical areas, high temperature can easily lead to rapid concrete slump loss and shortened initial setting time, which not only affects the construction pouring efficiency, but also may cause cracks due to the rapid accumulation of hydration heat, threatening the safety of bridge structures. In view of the characteristics of Panama's tropical climate, Shantui Janeoo Concrete Batching Plant is specially equipped with an ice maker to accurately mix crushed ice into the concrete mixture, effectively reduce the initial temperature of concrete through ice melting and heat absorption, ensure that the concrete always maintains stable working performance in the transportation, pouring and initial setting stage, provide a key guarantee for concrete production in a high-temperature environment, and lay the foundation for the strength and durability of the main structure of the bridge.
It is reported that the Fourth Bridge project of the Panama Canal is a dual-use road and rail bridge, which is a major infrastructure construction project of China in Panama after the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Pakistan, which has attracted global attention. After the completion of the project, it will effectively alleviate the traffic congestion problem in Panama City, greatly improve the traffic capacity of the Pan-American Highway, strengthen economic exchanges on both sides of the canal, and significantly improve the logistics efficiency of the canal economic belt, which is of great significance to Panama's social and economic development.
