Concrete is a widely used material for construction that when, reinforced makes for an ideal way of creating structural elements that can be combined to make up the supporting members for buildings and other structures. It is a mixture of aggregates, cement, and sand that is initially in a liquid state that gradually solidifies and becomes hard. It sets initially in about half an hour and gains its full strength after a few weeks. It needs to be supported until it gains the designed strength.
In most cases, concrete is mixed in concrete mixers or batching plants and conveyed to the point where it is required. This often requires the use of trucks or other transport equipment and often cranes and 0ther containers that will convey the concrete to its desired location, all before it achieves its initial set. As the concrete is in a liquid state when it is first mixed, pumps(bomba de concreto venta) have been developed that can pump the same concrete to the required location much more easily without the use of other handling equipment.
A concrete pump works in the same way that other liquid pumping mechanisms will use. Concrete is just more viscous and will solidify gradually, making it necessary to consider this factor in its design and working. These pumps draw the liquid concrete from a hopper that has the mixed concrete filled in it, into a cylinder that is equipped with a piston. The concrete is then pushed through discharge pipes that link the pump(bombeo de concreto premezclado) to the point where it is required to be delivered. These pipes come in short sections that can be coupled with each other to form the required length of pipe up to the point of discharge. The last part of the pipe is usually flexible to enable greater accuracy of concrete placement.
A basic concrete pump has two cylinders with pistons. While one piston works to draw in the concrete from a hopper, the other piston pushes the concrete into the discharge pipe that leads to the point of discharge. A valve decides on which cylinder needs to be activated to ensure constant movement of the concrete through the discharge pipe. Concrete pumps often have flexible booms attached to them, that enables the pump to discharge at various height and distances from the pump. Other pumps are line pumps that allow for discharge to varying lengths of pipe. These pipes come in short sections that have an easy coupling mechanism that allows the length of the pipes to be increased or decreased as required. And you can customize the concrete pump from AIMIX.
Many boom pumps are mounted on trucks enabling them to be used on different projects at will. Most line pumps are stationary and are suitable for concreting works at one site. A pump must be selected that can deliver the required volume of concrete in a required time frame that enables concrete to be continuously delivered to a concrete structure without allowing any joints to form.
Concrete pumps have greatly helped in the construction industry to complete concreting activities in large projects and high-rise buildings.
