Different Types of Mounted Concrete Pumps

In modern construction, the delivery of concrete is a key link. The emergence of the mounted concrete pump has greatly improved the efficiency and flexibility of concrete delivery.

Truck mounted concrete boom pump

It is a concrete conveying equipment that integrates the pumping system and the boom on the chassis of the car. Its biggest feature is that it has an extendable and foldable boom system, which can flexibly pump concrete within a certain range.

The length of the boom determines its working range. From a shorter dozen meters to the world's longest over 100 meters today, booms of different lengths are suitable for construction projects of various sizes. In urban construction, pump trucks with medium and short booms can easily cope with the concrete pouring of general residential and commercial buildings; while in large-scale infrastructure construction, such as bridges, large venues and other projects, long-boom pump trucks can show their prowess and accurately transport concrete to the designated location.

However, due to its complex structure and high technical content, the purchase cost of the boom pump is relatively high, and the space requirements for the construction site are also relatively large, requiring a relatively open and flat site to unfold the boom for operation.

Vehicle mounted concrete line pump

The vehicle-mounted pump is a device that installs the concrete pumping mechanism on the chassis of the car. It combines the driving function with the concrete pumping function. The vehicle-mounted pump does not have a long arm, but it has unique advantages in mobility and pumping performance.

The vehicle-mounted pump has strong mobility. It can rely on its own chassis to travel quickly on the road and can quickly transfer from one construction site to another. It is particularly suitable for frequent transfer operations between multiple construction sites.

In some small construction projects or scattered rural housing projects, the vehicle-mounted pump can quickly reach the construction site, saving transportation and installation time. The pumping capacity should not be underestimated. It can generate a higher pumping pressure to transport concrete to a longer distance and higher height.

Some high-performance vehicle-mounted pumps can pump up to more than 200 meters and the horizontal pumping distance can reach about 1,000 meters, which can meet the needs of most construction projects.

It transports concrete to the pouring location by connecting the pump pipe. During construction, it is necessary to plan the laying route of the pump pipe in advance to ensure that the concrete can be transported smoothly.

Compared with vehicle-mounted boom pumps, vehicle-mounted pumps have lower purchase costs and are relatively simple to maintain. They are a good choice for construction units with limited budgets but that need to have certain mobility and pumping capabilities.

Concrete trailer pump for sale

The trailer mounted concrete pump is a more traditional concrete delivery equipment. The trailer pump needs to be towed by a tractor or other vehicles, and after arriving at the construction site, it needs to be installed and debugged before it can be put into use. Although it is not as mobile as the vehicle-mounted pump and vehicle-mounted boom pump, the trailer pump also has its own advantages.

Its structure is relatively simple, mainly composed of pumping system, power system, control system, etc., without complex arm structure and walking chassis, so its manufacturing cost is low and the price is relatively affordable. For some projects with limited funds, small construction scale and low requirements for equipment mobility, trailer pumps are an economical choice.

Since it needs to be towed by a tractor and the installation and disassembly process is relatively cumbersome, the trailer pump takes a lot of time and manpower when transferring. In addition, it has certain requirements for the flatness and solidity of the construction site, and needs to be installed and operated on a relatively stable ground, otherwise it may affect the pumping effect or even cause equipment damage.

How to choose a suitable truck-mounted concrete pump

In actual construction, it is crucial to choose a suitable truck-mounted concrete pump. First of all, the scale and characteristics of the construction project should be considered. If it is a small construction project, the construction site is narrow and the requirements for pumping height and distance are not high, the trailer pump may be an economical and practical choice; if the project involves frequent transfers between multiple construction sites and has certain requirements for pumping performance, the mobility and pumping capacity of the truck-mounted pump can well meet the needs; and for large-scale construction projects, especially those that require concrete spreading over a large range, such as large bridges and high-rise buildings, the efficient and flexible spreading function of the truck-mounted boom pump is more suitable.

Cost factors should also be considered, including the purchase cost, use cost and maintenance cost of the equipment. Haomei Machinery is one of the main concrete pump suppliers. Welcome to contact us directly to get the best quotation of different concrete pumps.
