Introduction

Fully automatic dry mix mortar production line are essential for manufacturing high-quality construction materials such as tile adhesives, plaster, self-leveling compounds, and waterproofing mortars. One of the key differentiators among these systems is the feeding method—top feeding (upper batching) and bottom feeding (lower batching). Each method offers unique advantages in terms of efficiency, space utilization, and production flexibility.

This article explores the differences between top-feeding and bottom-feeding dry mortar production lines, highlighting their benefits, applications, and automation features for optimized manufacturing.


1. Top-Feeding (Upper Batching) Dry Mortar Production Line

Key Features & Advantages

✅ Overhead Batching System

  • The weighing hopper is positioned above the mixer, allowing materials to be directly discharged into the mixing unit after measurement.

  • Screw conveyors transfer raw materials from storage silos to the batching scale based on the pre-set formula, ensuring precise dosing.

✅ High-Speed Mixing with Twin-Shaft Mixer

  • Equipped with a dual-shaft gravity-free mixer, ensuring fast blending (60-90 seconds per batch) and superior homogeneity.

  • Ideal for high-output production of various dry mortars.

✅ Wide Application Range

  • Produces:

    • Tile adhesive

    • Plastering mortar

    • Gypsum-based mortar

    • Self-leveling floor compounds

    • Crack-resistant & thermal insulation mortar

    • Waterproofing & masonry mortar

✅ Fully Automated PLC Control

  • Computerized control system ensures accurate batching, mixing, and packaging.

  • Low dust emission & reduced labor costs due to enclosed production.

2. Bottom-Feeding (Lower Batching) Automatic Dry Mortar Production Line

Key Features & Advantages

✅ Ground-Level Batching with Cumulative Weighing

  • The weighing system is installed at ground level, using sequential dosing for material feeding.

  • Screw conveyors transfer materials from silos to the weighing hopper for precise formula-based batching.

✅ Dual-Line Production for Enhanced Efficiency

  • Two parallel systems can operate simultaneously, doubling output for:

    • Tile adhesive

    • Plaster & gypsum mortar

    • Masonry & rendering mortar

    • Wear-resistant floor screed

✅ Comprehensive System Integration

  • Includes:

    • Storage silos

    • Pneumatic/auger feeding system

    • Automatic batching & mixing unit

    • Dust removal system

    • Auto-packaging & palletizing

    • Steel platform structure

✅ Smart PLC Automation & Eco-Friendly Design

  • Centralized PLC control ensures real-time monitoring and error-free production.

  • Low energy consumption, minimal dust, and reduced manual intervention, making it a green, smart manufacturing solution.


Conclusion: Which Feeding System is Better?

FeatureTop-Feeding SystemBottom-Feeding System
Batching PositionAbove mixerGround level
Mixing EfficiencyUltra-fast (60-90s)Fast (90-120s)
Space RequirementsCompactRequires more space
Production CapacitySingle-lineDual-line possible
Automation LevelHighVery High
Best ForSmall/medium plantsLarge-scale production

Both top and bottom feeding systems offer high automation, precision, and versatility for dry mortar production. The choice depends on factory layout, production scale, and material handling preferences.

For smaller facilities, the top-feeding system is more space-efficient, while large manufacturers benefit from the dual-line capability of bottom-feeding systems.
