Go beyond batching with CB-3
The CB-3 concrete batching control system is fast, efficient and ideal for ready-mix and block plants. It is capable of controlling portable plants, stack-up plants, central mix, dry batch and pre-cast plants. From weighing raw material to automatic printing of tickets and detailed reports, your entire operation is centrally controlled with CB-3.
Industrial PC Power
The CB-3 is powered by an industrial PC. Offering the ability to view multiple windows at once, the PC interface offers unlimited possibilities to save time and optimize efficiency.
Multiple Windows and Simultaneous Processes
Operators can start one batch and in additional windows perform secondary actions including, prepping the next batch, accessing real-time weather conditions, creating driving directions to the job site, and accessing advanced reports. Multiple users can access the CB-3 interface through the browser-based software, and its SQL lite database networks with corporate servers.
Advanced Inventory Management
Inventory management is taken a step further with the CB-3. With the ability to notify the operator when materials are low, the CB-3 helps keep operations running smoothly.
Truck Monitoring
Tracking truck movements is streamlined with the CB-3’s integrated truck system. Know where your trucks are to keep deliveries on schedule and queue additional batches. Drivers can communicate with the CB-3 via SMS text messaging. Drivers text a user-configurable number to the CB-3, which correlates to a pre-programmed status. For example, texting “3” could signify that the driver is cleaning out the truck or returning to the plant.
Easy Integration
The CB-3 easily integrates with plant equipment and is an ideal replacement for existing concrete batch controllers. The retrofit option to upgrade a CB-2 with CB-3’s enhanced features and industrial PC is a smart solution for applications already familiar with automated concrete batching equipment and control.
