Dry-mixed mortar is a key industrialized building material in modern construction. Below is a systematic introduction to its essentials, types, advantages, and supporting production equipment, helping you better understand and apply it.
Core Essentials
Dry-mixed mortar refers to a granular or powdery mixture produced in professional ready mix mortar production lines. It blends dry, sieved fine aggregates (e.g., sand), inorganic binders (e.g., cement), mineral admixtures (e.g., fly ash), and functional additives (e.g., water retainers) in specific proportions. Transported to sites in bags or bulk, it is ready for use after mixing with water—often assisted by a mortar pump/mortar mixer for efficient on-site distribution.
Main Types and Applications of Dry-mixed Mortar
It falls into ordinary and special mortar:
| Category | Main Applications | Characteristics | Common Specific Varieties |
| Ordinary Dry-mixed Mortar | General construction processes such as masonry, plastering, and floor leveling | Emphasizes cohesiveness, water retention, and crack resistance to ensure the basic stability and aesthetics of building structures | Masonry Mortar, Plastering Mortar, Floor Mortar |
| Special Dry-mixed Mortar | Meeting specific engineering needs, such as thermal insulation, waterproofing, bonding, and rapid construction | Enhanced for specific properties, such as high bonding strength, flexibility, waterproofness, and self-leveling performance | Tile Adhesive, Thermal Insulation Mortar, Self-Leveling Mortar, Waterproof Mortar, Repair Mortar, Interface Agent, etc. |
Masonry Mortar: Bonds bricks, stones, and blocks while transferring loads. Produced in a ready mix mortar production line for precise proportioning, it's first mixed evenly by a mortar mixer then delivered to construction spots via a mortar pump to ensure consistent bonding.
Plastering Mortar: Used for wall/ceiling plastering, it needs good workability and high adhesion—pre-configured in a ready mix mortar production line to avoid on-site errors. On-site, a small mortar mixer adjusts batches after water mixing, protecting the main structure and creating a smooth finish.
Floor Mortar: Applied to floors and roofs (surface/leveling layers), it's made in a ready mix mortar production line, transported in bulk, mixed with water, and spread via a mortar pump for efficient large-area use.
Tile Adhesive: Bonds ceramic tiles, polished tiles, and natural stones with high strength, adapting to various bases and climates. It's ready to use after on-site water mixing—no need for a mortar mixer adjustment, saving time.
Interface Mortar: Treats base layers to boost bonding, solving issues with porous/waterproof substrates. Mixed briefly with a small mortar mixer on-site before application for evenness.
External Thermal Insulation Mortar: Includes polymer bonding (for insulation boards) and rendering (for protection/mesh cloth) variants. A mortar pump delivers rendering mortar to high-rise exteriors for uniform coating.
Self-Leveling Mortar: Levels floors auto-matically; mixed with water via a mortar mixer on-site to ensure consistency before pouring.
Waterproof Mortar: A cement-based, polymer-enhanced material; mixed with a mortar mixer for homogeneous waterproofing performance.
Repair Mortar: Repairs concrete (decorative/structural types); a mortar mixer ensures thorough mixing, and a mortar pump sends it to hard-to-reach areas.
Putty/Grout: Putty levels walls (mixed with a small mortar mixer); grout fills tile joints, no mortar pump needed but benefits from pre-mixing.
Grouting Material: Micro-expansive, high-fluidity material; mixed with a mortar mixer and injected via a mortar pump for equipment foundations/bolt anchoring.
Stable Quality: A ready mix mortar production line and mortar mixer ensure uniform, precise mixing, avoiding quality swings.
Strong Performance: Scientific additives in mortar mixers boost bonding strength, crack resistance, and durability.
High Efficiency: Only water is added on-site; a mortar pump speeds delivery, cutting raw material weighing/mixing steps and construction time.
Eco-Friendly: Centralized ready mix mortar production line reduces on-site dust/noise. Industrial waste (e.g., fly ash) is reused, slashing waste and lifting efficiency by over 50%.
Ninon's Ready Mix Mortar Production Line
Ninon’s equipment uses a sealed tower structure, with top-to-bottom processes for smooth production, minimal raw material cross-contamination, small footprint, and low energy consumption. Its core features:
·Adopts a plow-type (with high-speed blades) horizontal shaft mortar mixer for uniform mixing.
·Mettler Toledo sensors + weight calibration/air pressure balance ensure high metering accuracy.
·Connects to bags, tanks, and bulk trucks; a matching mortar pump enables efficient material transfer.
·Efficient dust control meets strict emissions; remote control allows one-click start/stop for easy operation.
