How Does The Concrete Mixer with Pump Work?
March 11, 2025
Concrete mixer with pump is a device that integrates concrete mixing and transportation. It combines the traditional concrete mixer with the concrete pump, which can complete the mixing, transportation and pouring of concrete. It is widely used in construction sites that need to transport concrete to high-rise, long-distance or complex environments.
Main components:
1.Mixing system: used to mix cement, aggregate (cement, sand, gravel) and water into uniform concrete.
Forced mixer: adopts forced mixing method, the mixing effect is uniform, suitable for the production of high-strength concrete.
Self-falling mixer: stirs by falling by its own weight, suitable for general concrete.
2.Pumping system: the mixed concrete is sent to the designated location of the construction site through a hydraulic pump.
Hydraulic pump: use the hydraulic system to drive the pump to efficiently transport the concrete to the target location through the pipeline.
Conveying pipeline: usually steel pipes and high-pressure rubber pipes are used to transport concrete. The pipeline needs to withstand greater pressure and friction during the transportation process.
3.Power system: usually diesel engines or motors are used as power sources to drive mixers and pumps.
4.Control system: Modern concrete mixers with pumps are equipped with electronic control systems. Operators can adjust and monitor mixing time, pumping speed, hydraulic system pressure, etc. through the control panel. Some equipment also has automation functions, which can automatically adjust working parameters according to actual needs to ensure efficient and stable operation.
Working principle:
1.Mixing: Put cement, sand, stone and water into the mixing barrel in proportion, start the mixer, and the mixing blades inside the mixing barrel rotate to mix the materials evenly to produce concrete.
2.Pumping: The mixed concrete is sucked from the mixing barrel through the hydraulic pumping system and pressed into the conveying pipeline. The concrete is pushed through the pipeline and finally delivered to the target location on the construction site. The hydraulic pump ensures that the concrete can flow steadily during the pumping process.
Key features:
1.Integration of mixing and pumping: Traditional concrete mixers and pumping machines are two independent devices, while concrete mixers with pumps combine the two, reducing the number of equipment and work processes, saving construction time.
2.Efficient concrete delivery capacity: The pumping system of the concrete mixer with pump can deliver concrete to higher building floors or long-distance construction sites, which is suitable for complex environments such as high-rise buildings, large bridges, tunnels, etc.
3.Convenient control system: Modern concrete mixers with pumps have a high degree of automation. Operators can operate through electronic panels to monitor the working status in real time, adjust the mixing and pumping process, and ensure the quality of concrete and construction efficiency.
4.Adapt to complex construction environments: Due to the relatively small size of the equipment, the concrete mixer with pumps can also be used flexibly in small or complex construction sites, especially in situations where space is limited or the construction site is narrow.
5.Save labor and time: The mixing and pumping processes of concrete are combined, which reduces manual handling and waiting time and improves the overall construction progress.
The concrete mixer with pump is an efficient equipment that integrates mixing and pumping, and can provide concrete mixing and delivery solutions in complex construction environments. Its advantages include high equipment integration, high construction efficiency, simple operation, and adaptability to different construction needs. It has become an indispensable key equipment in modern construction projects.
