Best China Concrete Transit Mixer Truck Drum Manufacturing Line 1

In cement mixer trucks, why does the mixer drum keep rotating even if the truck is travelling?
1. Such mixer is known as the Transit mixer .{ It is used to shift the ready mix concrete from the batching plant to the exact location where concrete is to be poured }.
2. The rotation of the drum is for two reasons :

2.1 To avoid segregation of concrete [ Segregation : Separation of sand and aggregate from the cement ,water film ]
3. During transit , the concrete should not spill out from the drum . The drum rotates clockwise during transit . The internal spiral blades push the concrete towards the inner zone of the drum . When reaching the location of pouring , the drum rotation is reversed , thus forcing the concrete to slowly get poured outside [either in the hopper of the concrete pump or in a platform ].

The setting of cement is usually decelerated using appropriate quantity of admixtures [ retarders ]

We just finished building concrete mixer tanker drum production line for a truck company.

Cement Mixer Drum/Tanker Welding production line from welding to cutting machines .

The Concrete Mixer Drum production line includes ;
Longitudinal seam welder, joining flat sheets on the specially designed table which is suitable for opening sheet of conical sections
Internal Longitudinal seam welder, internal welding for conical sections and rounded uniform cylindrical sections

Circumferential welding, finish outer side circumferential welding
Floor turntable , for end-dish's flange and sub components welding
Clamping fixtures, specially designed for just concrete mixer drum sections
Welding positioners, for complete concrete mixer drum's sub components

Please take a look at our ESSEN Welding Show presentation.
