10/7 cft Hydraulic Hopper Bed Type Concrete Mixer Machine

A 10/7 CFT Hydraulic Hopper Bed Type Concrete Mixer is a robust construction machine mixing 10 cubic feet of dry material to yield 7 cubic feet of concrete, featuring a hydraulic hopper for easy, labor-saving material loading, a tilting cast-iron drum for quality mixing, and powered by diesel or electric, ideal for general site work like foundations, walls, and small roads, offering efficiency and durability.

Key Components & Features:

Capacity: 10/7 CFT (Cubic Feet) – meaning it takes 10 cubic feet of ingredients (cement, sand, aggregate, water) to produce about 7 cubic feet of mixed concrete.

Hydraulic Hopper: A key feature that uses hydraulic power to lift and tilt the large loading hopper, significantly reducing manual effort and increasing loading speed.

Drum: A heavy-duty, cast-iron mixing drum with MS (Mild Steel) blades ensures thorough and smooth mixing, often with a replaceable ring for longevity.

Power: Can be powered by a 6HP air-cooled diesel engine or a 5HP electric motor, depending on site requirements.

Chassis & Mobility: Built on a strong steel chassis with wheels and an axle for easy transport between sites.

Drum Speed: Operates at around 20-22 RPM for optimal mixing consistency.

Output: Delivers approximately 4.5 cubic meters (or around 160 cubic feet) of mixed concrete per hour.

How it Works:

Loading: Raw materials (cement, sand, aggregate) are loaded into the large hopper.

Hydraulic Lift: The hydraulic system lifts the hopper, emptying its contents into the main mixing drum.

Mixing: The drum rotates, mixing the ingredients homogeneously with internal blades.

Discharge: Once mixed, the drum tilts (often with a cradle system) to discharge the fresh concrete into wheelbarrows or directly into forms.

Applications:

Foundations, walls, floors, and pavements.

Road construction and flyovers.

Small to medium-scale construction projects.

Benefits:

Efficiency: Faster mixing cycles and reduced labor.

Durability: Robust build for demanding environments.

Versatility: Suitable for various concrete applications.
