What Is a Concrete Pump?

Concrete pump truck is a machine that continuously transports concrete along the pipeline by using pressure. It consists of a pump body and a delivery pipe. According to the structure, it is divided into piston type, squeeze type and hydraulic diaphragm type. The pump body is mounted on the chassis of the car, and then equipped with a retractable or flexing cloth rod to form a pump truck.

Consists of five parts: boom, pumping, hydraulic, support, and electronic control ^[1]

There are five main control methods for the concrete pump truck electrical control system: mechanical, hydraulic, electromechanical electrical control, programmable controller, and logic circuit.

Application safety precautions 1 Concrete pump trucks can only be used for concrete transportation. Any other use (such as lifting heavy objects) is dangerous. 2 pump truck boom pumping coagulation
