A mobile system and process for manufacturing cement additives and/or concrete admixture products comprises at least two tanks each containing a different raw material for manufacturing cement additives or concrete admixtures; a frame for mounting and transporting as an integral unit at least two pumps operative to transfer the raw materials into a blender which mixes the raw materials together to provide a cement additive or concrete admixture for dispensing at the destination site, which could be the manufacturer's new or remote manufacturing site, or even a customer's site such as a cement plant or a ready-mix concrete plant. The frame can be placed upon or attached to wheels, as in a truck or trailer frame, and the tanks may also be placed on or secured to the truck or trailer frame. A preferred skid-mounted system comprises pumps, valves, meters, and a computer processor unit which can control the equipment and permit adjustments to be made at the destination site. Tanks of raw materials may be transported to a destination site together with or separately from the frame-mounted equipment, and finished products can be blended and adjusted on site by computer-controlled operation drawing upon inputted information parameters such as the quality of limestone, cement, aggregates, water, and also by drawing upon customer profile information (desired product blends, performance features, etc.) at the destination site. |
