Cement mixer truckIt is a specialized vehicle used for transporting concrete used in construction; due to its shape, which resembles that of a snail, the concrete mixer truck is also known as a snail truck.
Cement mixer truckDuring transportation, the mixing drum is kept in motion at all times to ensure that the concrete being transported does not solidify.
Mixing truckAfter transporting the concrete, the interior of the mixing drum is usually washed with water to prevent any remaining cement from hardening and taking up space, thus avoiding a reduction in the drum’s capacity.
Concrete mixer truckThe upper part of the equipment mainly includes a mixing drum, a power take-off unit, supports for the front and rear of the mixing drum, a hydraulic system, a reducer, a control mechanism, and a cleaning system. The working principle is as follows: the power from the vehicle’s chassis is drawn out through the power take-off device, which in turn drives the variable pump in the hydraulic system; this pump converts mechanical energy into hydraulic energy, which is then sent to a fixed-displacement motor. The motor drives the reducer, and it is the reducer that operates the mixing device to mix the concrete.
