Self Loading Concrete Mixer Capacity

Self loading concrete mixer capacity is an important parameter indicator. It not only indicates the producing capacity of a self loading concrete mixer truck, but also shows the whole working performance.

What Is Self Loading Concrete Mixer Capacity

The self loading concrete mixer capacity usually refers to the amount of concrete production per hour (or per batch). It indicates the capacity of a self loading concrete mixer to produce and mix concrete, and also an important reference index when customers choose a proper equipment for their own construction projects.

At present, the production capacity of the self-loading mixer truck for sale in the market is various. Take LUTON self loading mixer as an example, the output varies from 3m³ per hour to 30m³ per hour.

The variety of production capacity is mainly related to the models, mixer types, the volumes of the mixer, and the working efficiencies.

So, from the capacity of a self loading concrete mixer truck, the comprehensive performance can be seen.

What Is The Maximum Capacity Of Self Loading Mixer Truck

Now, the maximum capacity of self loading mixer is 6.5m³per batch. And the corresponding LUTON product model is LT-6.5 self loading mixer truck. 6.5m³/batch is the theoretical value and the actual value is about 6m³/ batch.

LUTON LT-6.5 can produce 5 batches of concrete per hour. That means it can produce concrete 30m³ per hour, and 240m³ per day!

As you know, 2 operators and one self loading concrete mixer can produce 240m³ of concrete per day. That is a very high efficiency in concrete construction field!

Large capacity is certainly great for large-scale construction project, but it is not suitable for every construction project.

For small-scale construction jobs, especially the ones needing small amount of concrete or the ones with limited working space, a small-sized self loading concrete mixer truck is the most reasonable choice.

How Do You Calculate Self Loading Mixer Capacity

The calculation method of self loading mixer capacity is very easy if we know the mixer volume, the production per batch, the production amounts of batches per hour. As shown in the figure below:

LTP-1.61.289.6
LTP-2.01.61219.2

Take LT-1.2 and LT-3.5 as an example. The mixing tank of LT-1.2 self loading mixer has a volume of 1.7m³, which actually can produce 1m³ concrete per tank, and 10 tanks per hour. According to this, it can produce:

1m³×10 tanks/hour =10m³/h.

Similarly, the mixing tank of LT-3.5 self loading mixer truck has a volume of 4.74m³, which can actually produce 3m³concrete per tank and 6 tanks per hour. So, it can produce:

3m³× 6 tanks/hour = 18m³/h.

If the working time is 8 hours a day,

LT-1.2 can produce concrete: 10m³/h × 8 hours = 80m³;

LT-3.5 can produce concrete: 18m³/h × 8 hours = 144m³.

Conclusion

It can be seen that the larger the volume of the self-loading mixing truck, the larger the volume of concrete produced in each tank, and the greater the total concrete output per hour.

Moreover, it is worth mentioning that the number of production batches per hour decreases with the increase of the self loading capacity. This is because, as the volume of the mixing tank increases, the mixing time of each batch increases relatively, so the number of batches produced per unit time is reduced.

So, now, learned the calculation method of self loading concrete mixer capacity, according to the actual engineering needs, we can accurately find out the suitable self loading mixer.
