A concrete mixer is composed of a motor, a rotating tank, a dump wheel or tipping handle (on the side) that allows the tank to be tilted and a rigid frame. The tank is equipped with fixed helical blades that mix the materials to obtain a homogeneous mixture. The motor can be electric, combustion or, less frequently, hydraulic.
In order to choose the right concrete mixer for your job, you must first determine the volume of concrete you will need. It is important to know that a tank can be filled to a maximum of 80%. When a manufacturer talks about mixing volume, it is therefore 80% of the volume of the tank: don’t confuse these two volumes.
In your selection criteria, you will also have to take into account the concrete mixer’s frequency of use.
If you work on sites where access to electricity is guaranteed
