Manual Batching Systems for Admixture Distribution Networks
Manual batching systems play a crucial role in the delivery of admixtures in construction and concrete production. These systems allow suppliers to deliver precise quantities of admixtures to multiple clients, ensuring each client gets exactly what they need. By tailoring each delivery, suppliers can improve the quality of concrete and reduce the risk of wastage.
This article explores the benefits of manual batching systems for admixture distribution networks, highlighting why they are an ideal solution for delivering admixtures to various projects.
Why Manual Batching Systems Are Perfect for Admixture Distribution
- Customised Deliveries for Different Clients
Admixture suppliers work with a variety of clients, from concrete plants to on-site construction projects. Each customer has unique requirements depending on the nature of their project. Manual batching systems provide the flexibility to adjust dosing for every delivery. Whether a client needs a small or large quantity, the system allows for easy adjustments, ensuring each delivery meets their specific needs. - Precision with Every Delivery
Manual batching offers real-time control over admixture delivery. With flowmeters like the MESLCD6 or MESLCD4, operators can measure and dispense precise amounts, reducing the risk of errors. This accuracy is essential for maintaining the quality of concrete, as even small variations in admixture quantities can impact the performance of the final product. - Cost-Effective for Admixture Suppliers
For suppliers looking for an affordable alternative to automated systems, manual batching is a great option. It requires less investment upfront and has fewer ongoing costs. For small-to-medium businesses, manual batching is a reliable solution that offers precision without the complexity of full automation. - Flexibility Across Multiple Locations
In Australia, admixture suppliers often operate across a range of environments, from urban centres to remote construction sites. Manual batching systems are portable, making it easy for suppliers to move equipment between different locations. This flexibility ensures that suppliers can deliver the same level of precision, no matter where their clients are based.
How Manual Batching Systems Work for Admixture Distribution
Admixture distributors need to ensure that each customer receives the correct amount of admixture for their project. For instance, a concrete plant might need different admixture quantities depending on the project size. Manual batching systems allow suppliers to adjust the dosing for each delivery, ensuring that every batch is accurate and tailored to the customer’s needs.
Using manual batching, suppliers can:
- Adjust quantities easily: If a client’s requirements change, the operator can quickly adjust the dosage in real-time.
- Maintain consistent quality: Flowmeters like the MESLCD6 provide real-time monitoring, allowing operators to keep control over the entire process.
Key Equipment for Manual Batching Systems
At ManuFlo, we supply high-quality equipment to support manual batching systems in admixture distribution networks:
- Battery-Powered Flowmeters
Models such as the MESLCD6 and MESLCD4 feature easy-to-read LCD displays for real-time monitoring. These flowmeters are available in sizes from 20mm to 40mm, making them versatile enough to handle different dosing requirements. - Magnetic Flowmeters
For more accurate dosing, magnetic flowmeters like the ME5-T and FRT303 offer superior precision. Available in sizes from 15mm to 25mm, these flowmeters ensure accurate delivery.

Benefits of Manual Batching Systems in Admixture Distribution
For admixture suppliers, manual batching systems offer several important advantages:
- Improved customer satisfaction: Delivering the exact amount of admixture required helps avoid costly mistakes.
- Reduced wastage: Accurate dosing minimises waste, saving both the supplier and the customer money.
- Operational flexibility: Manual batching systems allow suppliers to adapt to changing orders or new customer needs with ease.
Conclusion: Why Manual Batching Systems Are Essential for Admixture Distribution
Delivering precise quantities of admixtures is essential for admixture suppliers. Manual batching systems offer a flexible, cost-effective, and accurate solution to meet these demands. Whether distributing to a small concrete plant or a large construction site, manual batching ensures precise control over admixture delivery.
