REVERSE DRUM MIXERS
 |
|||
Mechanism: Reverse Drum mixers operate by rotating the drum in one direction to mix the concrete and in the opposite direction to discharge it. This eliminates the need for Tilt Functionality and the needed moving parts.
Medium-Volume Projects: Frequently used in small-to-medium-sized construction sites such as residential housing and small commercial buildings.
Ready-Mix Batching Plants: Commonly found in stationary ready-mix concrete plants due to their consistent mixing capabilities.
Precast Concrete Production: Well-suited for producing precast components where uniformity and batch repeatability are essential.
Remote or Low-Tech Settings: Favored in areas with limited access to skilled labor or complex equipment, due to their mechanical simplicity.
Comparison with Tilt Drum Mixers
Discharge Control Reverse drum mixers offer less precise discharge control. Tilt drum mixers allow for more controlled and targeted discharge.
Batch Size Reverse drum mixers are typically used for medium batch sizes. Tilt drum mixers are better suited for larger volume batches.
Mobility Reverse drum mixers are generally stationary. Tilt drum mixers may be either stationary or mobile, offering more flexibility on-site.
