Mobile Plants

R&S mobile concrete batching plants are an excellent choice for construction projects requiring both flexibility and mobility. Their design ensures easy transportation from one site to another, making them particularly beneficial for temporary or short-term construction projects. These plants are engineered for quick setup, which significantly reduces downtime and the amount of preparation needed before production begins.

In summary, mobile batching plants from R&S provide a highly efficient and convenient solution for construction projects with time-sensitive demands or constantly changing requirements, helping to streamline operations and deliver results promptly.

When mobility is a priority, the Dakota 12 is the perfect solution. This self-erecting plant features a hydraulic system that enables quick and easy setup, so you can have it operational in just a few hours without the need for cranes or specialized foundations.

The Dakota 12 offers flexible aggregate storage with capacities ranging from 28 to 36 tons, available in 2 to 4-compartment configurations. Additional bin extensions can be added for increased storage capacity, giving you even more flexibility.

For cement storage, the plant comes standard with a 59.0 Tons / 400 BBL silo, with the option to add a mobile auxiliary silo for an extra 64.0 Tons / 428 BBL. With a theoretical production rate of 160 cubic yards per hour, the Dakota 12 provides excellent efficiency and performance for both large and small-scale production needs.

Whether you’re working on a short-term project or require a plant that can handle heavy-duty, long-term operations, the Dakota 12 is built to deliver high performance wherever you need it.
