Shengmao 75 m³/h Foundation-Free Concrete Plant Successfully Commissioned in Bender, Moldova

Shengmao Machinery has successfully delivered, installed, and commissioned a 75 m³/h Foundation-Free Concrete Batching Plant in the city of Bender, Moldova.

Located inside a large agricultural estate, the project required immediate on-site concrete production for industrial farm building renovations and extensive internal road paving. Faced with an extremely tight footprint and a pre-existing hardened concrete ground, the client selected Shengmao’s compact, skip-hoist foundation-free concrete plant.

Thanks to the pre-assembled modular steel chassis and the hands-on guidance of Shengmao’s overseas service engineers, the entire mechanical assembly, electrical wiring, calibration, and test-batching were completed in just 7 days. The plant successfully discharged its first batch of high-grade concrete on schedule, delivering exceptional flexibility with zero civil foundation excavation.

1. Project Overview at a Glance

2. Client Background & Project Challenges

The client operates a prominent agricultural enterprise in Bender, Moldova. To support expanding farm logistics and modern grain storage operations, the client initiated a major modernization initiative involving:

Structural reinforcement and flooring renovation of multiple large-span workshops and agricultural equipment hangars.

Concrete paving of kilometers of internal haul roads to handle heavy tractor and truck traffic during harvest seasons.

3. The Critical Site Challenges:

Pre-Existing Hardened Concrete Ground: The designated installation area was already paved with thick, hardened concrete. Digging deep foundation pits or pouring heavy concrete footings would have incurred massive demolition costs, extended civil construction timelines, and damaged existing farm infrastructure.

Extremely Cramped Footprint: The available parcel between existing storage warehouses and farm roads was narrow. Traditional belt-conveyor batching plants were far too long to fit the site geometry.

Multi-Grade Concrete Demand: The project required both wear-resistant paving concrete (for heavy vehicle traffic) and high-flow structural concrete (for warehouse foundation beams and floor slabs).

Urgent Need for Immediate Production: With seasonal harvesting approaching, the client needed the batching plant up and running immediately to complete the roadwork before bad weather set in.

4. Why the Client Chose Shengmao Foundation-Free Technology

After evaluating multiple European and international machinery suppliers, the client selected Shengmao Machinery's NYHZS75 Foundation-Free Skip Hoist Plant for three decisive reasons:

Zero Civil Foundation Requirement: Shengmao's foundation-free series utilizes a reinforced heavy-gauge structural steel chassis. It can be positioned directly on any level, hardened concrete surface or compacted base, completely eliminating foundation civil works and saving up to 80% in site preparation costs.

Ultra-Compact Skip Hoist Layout: By utilizing a steep-angle skip hoist (hopper) to elevate aggregates directly into the mixer, the plant occupies less than half the footprint of an inclined belt-conveyor plant, fitting perfectly into the tight farm compound.

Rapid Relocation & High Resale Value: Once the farm modernization and road construction are completed, the entire plant can be disassembled in 2–3 days and relocated to another site or commercial project with zero left-behind civil waste.

5. 7-Day Rapid Installation & Commissioning in Bender

Shengmao Machinery deployed an experienced service engineer directly to the jobsite in Bender to oversee the entire installation process:

Days 1–2 (Positioning & Frame Alignment): Verified the level of the existing hardened ground and positioned the main steel chassis, mixer platform, and aggregate batcher bins.

Days 3–4 (Mechanical Erection & Hoist Assembly): Guided crane lifting for the mixer tower, skip hoist rails, cement scales, and auxiliary feeding systems.

Day 5 (Electrical Wiring & Pneumatics): Completed plug-and-play cable routing, pneumatic valve connections, and control cabin integration.

Day 6 (Cold Dry-Run & Sensor Calibration): Calibrated load cells for aggregates, cement, water, and chemical additives using certified test weights; tested limit switches and safety interlocks.

Day 7 (Hot Trial Run, First Batch & Handover): Charged the plant with local aggregates, gravel, and cement. The plant discharged its first batch of high-strength paving concrete, immediately placed on the adjacent farm road section.

Hands-On Local Training: Trained the farm’s local maintenance and operating crew on daily startup checklists, lubrication intervals, and recipe switching.
