Rice Lake CB-2

Rice Lake CB-2

With the CB-2, ultimate control and accuracy are right at your fingertips.

The CB-2 is a versatile, efficient concrete batching control system ideal for ready-mix and block plants. It is capable of controlling portable plants, stack-up plants, central mix, dry batch as well as precast plants. The CB-2 makes it easy and affordable to streamline your plant.

From weighing raw material to automatic printing of tickets and reports, your entire operation can now be cost-effectively controlled from this proven reliable controller.

The CB-2 provides accuracy that quickly pays for itself in material savings alone. Just as important, however, is that this accuracy is achieved while substantially increasing production speed.

Features

  • One aggregate and one cement scale sampling 120 times per second
  • Standard manual override controls
  • Batch tickets with configurable field printing
  • 1 megabyte database
  • Material usage by day/week/month/year and inventory on hand with reporting
  • Automatic aeration control for cement silos and weigh hoppers
  • Multiple freefall values per material with "learning" abilities
  • Split batching for loads larger than plant capacity with pre-weighing next batch for maximum throughput
  • Automatic dust collection outputs
  • Simulation mode for demonstration and/or testing

 

Preparing a Batch is Simple and Easy

  1. Enter the mix design number or mix code
  2. Enter the amount of batch in cubic yards (or cubic meters)
  3. Preview each load before starting the batch
  4. Adjust any required mix design parameters by load
  5. Add admixtures to batch without changing
    stored mix design
  6. Prompt for Truck ID (if so configured)
  7. The CB-2 takes care of the rest!

Onboard Reporting Module Available

Using a standard off-the-shelf 80-column bidirectional dot-matrix printer, the CB-2 has a robust onboard reporting module including:

  • Batch ticket
  • Reprint last batch ticket before next batch is started
  • Material usage/inventory reports
  • Mix design reports
  • System configuration report
