Is it mixed well?


Stetter truck mixers are characterised by low-maintenance technology in a modern design, simple handling, and cost-effective in maintenance and service.

Stetter truck mixers are the result of experience gained over decades accompanied by permanent advancement and optimisation. The truck mixers which are manufactured by Schwing Stetter have proved to be reliable all over the world.


Stetter truck mixers are characterised by low-maintenance technology in a modern design, simple handling, techno commercially efficient and cost effective in maintenance and service.

Mixers are available in C, C2, N, N2 version; the time spent on filling, discharging and cleaning is reduced to a minimum, thus you save time and money. Stetter truck mixers are available with mechanical or electronic control unit and help a customer chose a mixer appropriate for his requirement.

The mixers have reliable drive components that guarantee smooth operation. The truck mixers are available with a nominal volume of 3 to 12 m3 with slave engine, PTO driven and mounted on trailers. The Transit mixer with pump TMP 32.6 was recently launched at the Bauma Conexpo India.

Characteristics
Stetter truck mixers are created with main focus on safety, quality, and ease of operation, maintenance and economic efficiency. Stetter Transit Mixers have high loading volume as they have a high water line. Due to a low centre of gravity of the mixer, these possess optimum drive characteristics.

The feed hopper, discharge funnel and swivel discharge chute are designed with wear resistant plates. Equipped with 5.0mm mixing spirals in the main wear zones, Stetter T-protect wear protection (30x8mm) on the mixing spirals makes it long lasting.

The Stetter Mixers are highly fuel efficient due to their compact design and balanced weight distribution. Maintenance Cost of Truck mixers is very minimal. The usual routine includes change of engine oil and washing of the Drum and that is all it takes to keep the mixer running for years together. 

Reuse of concrete waste from Concrete trucks
Construction and demolition waste generation has exceedingly increased around the world to about 40 percent annually. Out of which, concrete constitutes to about 80 percent of the total waste.
Therefore, it is necessary to recycle concrete waste to recycled aggregate and recycled aggregate concrete. Sustainable development is focused through usage reduction of natural raw materials and consumption of recycled goods.

Recycling of slurry water is necessary to avoid ground water contamination which poses a great hazard in the ground water table. The solution to it is in recycling the concrete and the slurry water.

The benefits to it are that it reduces the production of greenhouse gas emissions and other pollutants by reducing the need to extract raw materials and ship new materials to long distances.

Conservation of natural resources and a responsibility towards a greener future enabled Schwing Stetter to manufacture a recycling plant.

The use of recycled aggregates from construction and demolition wastes is showing great interest in construction because it is a huge money saver for every company, cuts down the cost on effort of transport and manpower. It conserves natural resources and reduces the space required for the landfill disposal.

After concrete is poured at a construction site, the chutes of ready mixed concrete trucks and hoppers of concrete pump trucks must be washed out to remove the remaining concrete before it hardens. Equipment such as wheelbarrows and hand tools also need to be washed down.

At the end of each work day, the drums of concrete trucks must be washed out. This is customarily done at the ready mixed batch plants, which are usually off-site facilities, however large or rural construction projects may have on-site batch plants.

Wet concrete recycling
Builders often order a little more ready mixed concrete than they actually need, so it is common for concrete trucks to have wet concrete remaining in their drum after a delivery. This unused concrete can be returned to the ready mixed plant and either:
(1) used to pour precast concrete products (e.g., highway barriers, retaining wall blocks, riprap), (2) used to pave the ready mixed plant’s yard,
(3) washed into a reclaimer, or
(4) dumped on an impervious surface and allowed to harden, so it can be crushed and recycled as aggregate.
Unused wet concrete should not be dumped on bare ground to harden at construction sites because this can contribute to ground water and surface water contamination. Schwing Stetter recycling plant RA 12, 20 helps in conserving the environment by not contaminating the ground water through recycling of slurry water and reusing it in making concrete.

Schwing Stetter’s RA 12 - 20 can recycle the concrete at a washing capacity for normal concrete at 12 – 20 m3 per hour. The major benefits to RA 12, 20 are easy operation, fully automatic, no wastage of aggregates or raw materials, short vehicle downtimes during cleaning, no disposal costs, exceptionally resistant to wear, variable installation possibilities and low operating costs.

Schwing Stetter is the best in the next generation recycling plant. RA 12, 20 offers easy to use, low noise equipment wherein it separates aggregates and slurry from the concrete to be reused. The major benefits of concrete recycling are keeping concrete debris out of landfills saves landfill space, recycled gravel reduces the need for gravel mining and using the recycled concrete as the base material for roadways reduces the pollution involved in construction.

It also satisfies legal authority’s guidelines of not allowing waste water containing cement slurry that should be allowed to be flushed into municipal drains, minimum payback period of capital investments made on Stetter RA 12, 20.

Framework for the future

The GMS Grande Palladium project in Mumbai is a critical commentary on some of the antiquated notions that have plagued contemporary commercial design in the subcontinent.

Rapid urbanization and redevelopment has led to a blanket erasure of any identifiable architectural character in Mumbai, barring a few. The site for the GMS Grande Palladium is in close proximity t   READ MORE...
