CON-E-CO 454/448 Plant Overview
The CON-E-CO 454/448 Plant is a high-production central-mix plant for buyers who need capacity but cannot force a standard footprint onto the site. Astec highlights the 448/454 models for structural strength and operation from a monolithic slab foundation instead of piers.
The key advantage is layout flexibility: the aggregate bin and charging conveyors can be located in line or at 90 degrees to the centerline of the plant, helping the plant conform to the property rather than the property conforming to the plant.
