Concrete mixer with pump trailer

A trailer concrete mixer with pump is the combination of a trailer concrete pump and a drum or JS concrete mixer. The pump provides a novel and advanced mode of mechanical construction, reducing labor cost and shortening building period. With economic development around the world, especially in remote areas, the demand for high quality concrete keeps climbing in road, bridge, house, and water construction projects. This offers a big platform for trailer concrete mixers with pumps. Featured by safe and stable operation, small flooring area, high adaptability and low cost, such a mixer pump is suitable for all kinds of civil housing, highways, farmland water conservancy and other projects.

However, the machine has its own disadvantages, too. First, the arduous preparation work of pipeline arrangement takes a long time. The pipeline must be changed manually with the concreting points. Second, in comparison to concrete boom trucks, a concrete mixer with pump trailer has no vehicles, and can only travel relatively slowly trailed by an extra power engine. Third, too much corollary equipment must be carried in site transfers: generator sets, trailer pumps, pipelines, forklifts, rotating brackets, etc.

In spite of the disadvantages above, the trailer concrete mixer with pump remains popular. It’s much more cost efficient, suitable for regions with insufficient electric power supply (diesel engines are available) and capable of dealing with vertical heights of 200m, much more higher than those of concrete boom trucks. The maximum capacity of such a pump reaches 120m3 per hour, with 60m3 the most widely applied.
