· A concrete pump is a piece of construction equipment designed to convey concrete through pipelines by means of pressure. Capable of simultaneously executing both horizontal and vertical transport in a continuous operation, it stands as one of the most ideal solutions among currently available concrete conveying systems.
· By integrating the production of ready-mixed concrete with the pumping process—and utilizing concrete mixer trucks for intermediate transport—this system enables the continuous pumping and pouring of concrete.
· It is employed for concrete conveying tasks in large-scale construction projects, such as high-rise buildings, expressways, and overpasses. Currently, concrete pumps are primarily categorized into two types: gate-valve pumps and S-valve pumps; these can be further subdivided into electric-powered pumps and diesel-powered pumps.
