When selecting a Medium-Sized Concrete Mixer, especially a tilting drum concrete mixer, a number of factors need to be considered to ensure that the equipment can meet the construction needs and achieve the expected work efficiency. The following are detailed instructions covering the main selection criteria and considerations.
1. Mixer capacity
Definition: Capacity is usually measured by the maximum volume of concrete mixed by the mixer each time, common 0.5 cubic meters, 1 cubic meters, 1.5 cubic meters and so on.
Selection suggestion: Select the appropriate capacity according to the project scale and construction progress. If the project demand is large, it is recommended to choose the equipment with larger capacity; If the construction project is small, it will be more economical to choose small capacity equipment.
2. Power system
Type: Inclined tilting drum concrete mixer can be divided into Electric Concrete Mixer and Diesel Concrete Mixer types.
Selection suggestions:
Electric: Suitable for the construction site with stable power supply, low noise and low maintenance cost.
Diesel: Suitable for remote areas without power, powerful, but high noise and emissions.
3. Mixing method
Drum type: suitable for high viscosity concrete, can be more uniform mixing.
Selection suggestion: Inclined tilting drum concrete mixer is suitable for occasions where good mixing efficiency is required. In the selection, it is necessary to take into account the type of material and the uniformity of mixing requirements.
4. Structure and material
Material: Commonly used high-strength steel, good wear resistance and corrosion resistance.
Selection suggestions: Ensure that the mixing tank and its components are made of high-quality materials to improve the durability and service life of the equipment.
5. Design of all parts of mixer
Tilt Angle: The tilt Angle of the tilting drum concrete mixer will affect the discharge speed and mixing effect of the concrete.
Selection suggestions: Choose the right tilt Angle design to improve the mixing and unloading efficiency of concrete. Normally, the tilt Angle should be between 30 and 45 degrees.
6. Control system
Type: Can be divided into manual control and automatic control system.
Selection suggestions: According to the experience of the operator and the requirements of the project to choose, the automatic control system is suitable for more complex work, improve the ease of operation.
7. Care and maintenance
Requirements: Understand the manufacturer's after-sales service, as well as the equipment maintenance convenience.
Selection suggestion: Select the manufacturer to provide a complete user manual, and ensure that there is corresponding after-sales service support for daily maintenance and troubleshooting.
8. Security
Factors: including protective cover, emergency stop button, operating handle design, etc.
Selection suggestion: Ensure that the equipment complies with relevant safety standards and pay attention to the integrity of its protective facilities to ensure the safety of the operator.
9. Price and budget
Budget: According to the project budget and actual needs, choose the products with higher cost performance.
Selection suggestion: On the basis of ensuring performance and quality, compare the quotation and product performance of various manufacturers. Given the long-term maintenance costs, lower-priced but substandard equipment can cause more expenses in the later stages.
10. Manufacturers and brands
Factor: Choose well-known brands and manufacturers with good reputation.
Selection suggestions: Compare the history, market feedback and after-sales service of different brands. At the same time, the quality and reliability of the equipment can be judged by user evaluation and industry recommendation.
Sum up
The capacity, power system, mixing mode, structural design and later maintenance of the mixer should be considered comprehensively when selecting the Medium-Sized Concrete Mixer. By comparing the performance indicators and prices of different products, you can find the mixer that best meets your project needs. If possible, it is recommended to visit the site or consult industry professionals to get more intuitive information and advice.
