Concrete-Mate is the revolution of the concrete production industry, a one of a kind weighing system in the world. Thanks to this new device, the mix can be weighed directly inside the drum. Unlike many similar systems present on the market and which use a hydraulic system built on the bucket, the one installed on the new Carmix 3500 TC ensures extremely reliable data on the quality of the concrete. This device is added to the essential element that has always been inspired by Carmix's philosophy: the self-loading cement mixer was born to offer a machine that can prepare concrete on site. Less mechanical stress, due to the mixing and transportation, thus results in a decreased need for additives. The result? An excellent quality product ready to be used on any job site, when you require and how you need it.
The quality is confirmed by the printing of a real-time receipt inside the cabin, detailing: mixing times, quantities scheduled to load, quantities of each aggregate loaded and variances. The computer also has a wireless and USB function allowing the data to be transferred to a site managers laptop miles away from the job site. All to ensure the quality of the mix is upheld and production targets are met.
For those contractors that want to be at the forefront of technology, Carmix has the PROMIX – probe. This is a state of the art digital device that relays REAL-TIME info to the operator and office of Slump, Temperature, moisture, rotational speed and readiness of concrete inside the drum. This is done by means of a stainless-steel probe inside the drum submitting data via Bluetooth to the cabin every second
