Mixing Pumps and Plastering Machines:

Efficient mixing and pumping of dry mortar
Definition and Usage: Mixing pumps, also known as plastering machines, are specialized, continuously operating machines designed to mix and pump commercially available pumpable dry mortar products or pasty materials. These machines are essential on construction sites for the efficient and uniform application of a variety of mortar types.

How they work: Mixing pumps can receive dry mortar manually from bags or automatically through a transfer hood directly from the silo. Dust-free mortar delivery is also possible through a transfer hood from a pneumatic conveying system into the machine's material hopper. A screw conveyor transports the material into the mixing tube, where a mixing shaft mixes it with the necessary water to produce a pumpable, ready-to-use mortar.

Example: m-tec® duo-mix 2000 The m-tec® duo-mix 2000 is a closed system with a patented dual mixing system. The dry material is first immersed in a water bath and pre-mixed in the horizontal section before being further homogenized by the mixing shaft. This process improves the consistency of the mortar and optimizes the incorporation of additives.

Advantages of mixing pumps:

Efficiency: Continuous and automated mixing and pumping significantly reduces on-site labor.
Versatility: These machines can process a wide range of mortar products, making them indispensable tools for various construction applications.
Quality Control: Produces consistently mixed mortar, resulting in better end products on the jobsite.
Technological features: Modern mixing pumps such as the duo-mix 2000 have advanced features that allow precise control of the mixing process while simplifying maintenance and cleaning.
By using modern mixing pumps and plastering machines, contractors can increase efficiency and ensure optimal material processing, resulting in more durable and higher quality structures.
