Concrete Mixers

A concrete mixer is a device meant to create a homogeneous mixture from cement, sand, gravel, and water. Homogeneity is a key factor in every construction project, making a concrete mixer an essential and indispensable tool, whether you are building a skyscraper or repairing a small wall in your backyard. Concrete mixers are available in many sizes and models, and choosing the most appropriate type depends on the type of work and the frequency of use. For occasional use and small projects, you could choose the mixer with a filling capacity of 2-3 cu. ft. (about 80% of the tank’s volume). The tanks ranging from 5 to 7 cu. ft. are suitable for frequent use, while intensive use and large volumes require at least the capacity of 9 cu. ft.

A typical concrete mixer consists of a rigid frame, rotating tank, motor, and a dumping system to empty the tank. Commonly, the motor can be either electric or combustion, while the tank is tilted through a tipping handle or dump wheel. The system of fixed blades, usually helical, mixes the concrete components ensuring homogeneity and preventing the compound from hardening. Usually, a metal structure shields the motor and drive system from rain and various debris that can damage them.
