Serie B
Series B

The Kimera B172 is a mobile loading and aggregate batching plant, designed for fast and efficient material handling on site.

Thanks to the external conveyor with a 6.5 m reach, fully controllable via radio remote control (lifting, rotation and translation), it can load trucks or feed other plants with maximum positioning flexibility.

The B172 is the ideal solution for job sites that require an aggregate storage and loading system that is self-contained, compact and quick to commission.

The Kimera B081 is a compact mobile aggregate loading and batching hopper, the most compact version in the B range, designed for those who need a reduced footprint without giving up the practicality of a self-contained loading plant.

Thanks to the external conveyor with a 2.6 m reach, fully controllable via radio remote control (lifting and translation), it can load trucks or feed other plants even in the tightest job site spaces.

The B081 is the ideal solution for small and medium-sized job sites that require a compact aggregate storage and loading system, simple to transport and quick to commission.

Advantages

The key advantages.

Maximum unloading flexibility

The external conveyor with a 6.5 m reach, orientable and height-adjustable, allows loading trucks or feeding other plants from any position, adapting to every configuration on site.

Complete control via radio remote

Every function of the plant, vibrators, conveyors, engine, can be controlled remotely via multifunction radio remote control, for safe operation without needing personnel on board the machine.

Compactness and fast transport

A compact, towable structure allows the plant to be moved quickly from one job site to another, reducing downtime and costs of relocation.

Accessories and configuration

Full configuration.

Every job site has different needs. That's why the B172 is available with a wide range of options that allow the machine to be customized based on the application, type of work and operating conditions. A tailor-made configuration to achieve maximum performance in any context. The sections below gather all the options and accessories available for the B172.

Mobility

Mobility options.

Solutions designed to adapt to the job site, not the other way around. Compact, modular and reconfigurable plants that allow production to be moved where and when needed, without interrupting processes and maintaining operational continuity, precision and reliability. Every configuration is designed to ensure maximum efficiency in dynamic contexts, reducing downtime and increasing production flexibility in the field.

Installation configuration
On truck or trailer
Plant integrated on the vehicle chassis or mounted on a towable trailer: maximum speed to start production, with the vehicle remaining free after positioning.
Fast production — a few minutes after arriving on site
Ideal for multiple job sites with frequent relocations
Kimera Container
Installation configuration
Container
Quick anchoring system (twist lock) for transport on a standard container platform: ship, train or truck, anywhere in the world.
ISO container compatible — shipping by sea, rail or truck
The solution for exports and international job sites
