Gun-Crete Mobile Mixer for concrete repair, bridge repair, parking garages and rockscaping
Cemen Tech has introduced a new mobile mixer in response to customers’ need for machines to meet the increased demand for concrete in the shotcrete and gunite industry.
“Using volumetric batch plants would work incredibly well for big projects that are far away from a ready-mix plant,” said Mason Guarino, ASA Board member and ACI Certified Nozzleman. He added that delays on the jobsite can compound quickly when utilizing ready-mix trucks. “On site, when shooting shotcrete, if there is a small issue that delays the shooting, one can find that several concrete trucks are very quickly waiting in line.”
“Hot loads are nonexistent with the [volumetric mixer] because the only mix time is in the auger,” Guarino said.
The Gun-Crete Mobile Mixer is designed to produce high quality gunite while giving the operator control over the consistency of concrete produced. The mixer utilizes a cement metering system to mix material with precise consistency, volume and accuracy.
The Gun-Crete Mobile Mixer utilizes a 24-inch-wide conveyor belt for consistent and reliable flow of material with no bridging. The unit also features a multi-section hydraulic pump to provide the proper amount of oil to each circuit providing cooler operation even on warm days. Gun-Crete Mobile units have a carrying capacity of up to 12 cubic yards and a production rate of up to 30 yards per hour.
A water system is available for contractors looking to mix both concrete and gunite using the same piece of equipment. Other available options include a production printer, a power swivel for ease of operation and admix systems.
