5.5m3 Self Loading Mixer HK5.5 Rear Wheels Steering with 115kw engine
This self loading transit mixer is capable to carry any other material needed to make concrete so it can be loaded with cement, aggregate and stones. And, very conveniently the material can be carried to the construction site to prepare concrete as per the requirements. Because of the powder and size of self loading cement mixer, the truck comes with a powerful engine.
Functions of self loading mixer truck

• Firstly, at the construction site, it can easily load sand, gravel, cement and other materials through its own bucket without the help of other loading equipment.
• Secondly, after loading, the vehicle can mix the materials during traveling or after arriving at the construction site to ensure the uniformity of concrete.
• Then, after mixing, the vehicle can directly transport the concrete to the pouring place, which greatly facilitates the construction process.
• Finally, with a rotating mixing drum, the vehicle can also unload the concrete to a designated location, while some models are also equipped with a transfer pump that can transport the concrete to a higher or more distant location.

Advantages of self-feeding mixer trucks

• This kind of multifunctional vehicle is easy to operate, and one device can complete multiple processes such as loading, mixing, transportation and unloading, which greatly saves labor costs.
• At the same time, it reduces the material transferring link, greatly shortens the construction time and improves the overall working efficiency.
• In addition, due to the relatively small size of the vehicle and small turning radius, it is very suitable for operation in narrow sites.
• In addition, this kind of multifunctional vehicle can also reduce the investment cost and maintenance cost of the equipment, and the cost is low.
• Finally, due to the wide range of application, this kind of vehicle can be useful in all kinds of small and medium-sized projects, such as road construction, bridge construction, housing construction, rural construction and so on.

How to find a right self loading mixer?

There are a number of factors to consider when choosing a self-feeding mixer truck in order to select the model that best suits your needs. Here are some key considerations:

1. Mixing Capacity.

Determine the project volume: First of all, you need to define your project volume requirement, such as the amount of concrete per day or per project. This will directly determine how much mixing capacity you need.
Capacity selection: The capacity of self-feeding mixer trucks ranges from 0.5 cubic meters for small ones to 6 cubic meters for large ones. Choosing too small a capacity will result in frequent loading and reduced efficiency, while choosing too large a capacity will result in waste and increased costs.
Actual loading capacity: Note that there may be a difference between the nominal capacity on the nameplate and the actual loading capacity, which is usually slightly less than the nominal capacity.

2. Engine and Powertrain.

Engine power: Choose the right engine power to ensure that the vehicle can run smoothly even when fully loaded, especially on slopes or complicated terrain.
Brand and quality: Choosing a well-known brand of engine and powertrain will ensure higher reliability and longer service life.
Fuel efficiency: Considering fuel economy, choosing a more fuel efficient model can reduce operating costs.
Drive: Whether you choose 4WD or 2WD depends on your site conditions. Four-wheel drive models have better passability in complex terrain and bad weather conditions.

3. Mixing system.

Mixing type: Common mixing methods are forced and self-falling. Forced mixing is more efficient, more uniform, and suitable for high-performance concrete; self-falling mixing is simple in structure, easy to maintain, and suitable for general concrete.
Mixing blades: Pay attention to the material and design of mixing blades, which will affect the mixing efficiency and concrete quality.
Unloading method: Find out if the unloading method is convenient and fast, and whether it can meet your construction needs. For example, some models can rotate 360 degrees to unload, which is more flexible.

4. Chassis and body.

Chassis Strength: Choose a chassis that is strong and durable enough to withstand the weight of a fully loaded vehicle and the impact of complex road conditions.
Ground clearance: Adequate ground clearance can improve the vehicle's passability, especially on rugged construction sites.
Tires: Choose the right type and size of tires to meet different road conditions and load requirements.
Body structure: Pay attention to the strength and corrosion resistance of the body structure to ensure the service life of the vehicle.
