When it comes to delivering concrete in hard to reach places such as interior floors or backyards, a trailer-mounted concrete pump is one of the most economical solutions. These pumps are extremely convenient for residential uses and they can even be used on larger jobs that require less to be outputted. As such, most of these models can be easily placed as high as a couple of hundred feet above where at least 100 cubic yards are required every hour.
Within the construction industry, it is relatively easy to find these pumps. As such, they can be easily used for just about any type of pouring application(aplicación de bombeo) that exists. Some of these include but are not limited to shotcreting, grouting, and others. Trailer mounted concrete pumps are also great for both structural and overlays.
In the case of purchasing or renting equipment, there’s an economical solution. So, if you don’t plan to use your pump every day or on a regular basis, it might be better to rent a pump. When machines aren’t used for periods of time, they still require repair, maintenance, and even a clean-up every now and again.
Hence, it just might be economical to rent a pump or hire a contractor. So, before you rush off and purchase a pump, it’s a good idea to determine the number of hours that you’re using a pump and compare it to the cost of buying it on an hourly basis. However, it should b noted that when larger aggregates are used, some pumps are not able to deal with them.
If you’ve decided to purchase a concrete pump, there are a couple of things that you need to consider. The main one is how fast and how far you’ll need to supply concrete. In order to determine this, you’ll need to consult with the manufacturer AIMIX Group’s(de AIMIX Grupo) sheet to see the output rate. The sheet also indicates the vertical and horizontal distances that you’ll be able to go with the pump.
However, it should be noted that you shouldn’t waste cash purchasing more capacity. Higher capacities aren’t necessary for overlays. So, if you’re interested in taking advantage of faster delivery rates, you’ll need a ton of onsite workers to aid with placement.
These trailer pumps(bombas estacionarias) work exceptionally well in either decorative or critical jobs since there is a limited window of opportunity to finish stamping after it hits the ground. In the case of decorative work, you should aim to work with a volume control pump that allows you to adjust the output on the worksite. This allows users to reduce the delivery of concrete before things fall behind.
If you already have a van and you’re wondering if it can be used to tow the pump, the simple answer is yes it can easily tow the pump. The sheet will provide all of the information regarding towing and the dimensions of the machine.
As we conclude, we have just looked at trailer concrete pumps. These pumps are convenient for reaching high up and even for smaller residential jobs(trabajos residenciales). So, before purchasing a pump, be sure to calculate the cost to rent one hourly!
