More information about the Concrete Pumping industry
A concrete pump is a machine that transfers liquid concrete through a pumping process. It is common to large construction sites. There are basically three types of concrete pumps.
A concrete pump attached to a truck or semi-trailer. This is referred to in the industry as a "boom concrete pump". It utilizes a "boom" (another word for a remote-controlled robotic arm) to pump concrete to 'hard-to-reach' places, doing so with a high level of accuracy. These pumps are often used on large construction projects as they can pump high volumes of concrete.
A second type of concrete pump can be mounted onto a truck or placed on a trailer. These are commonly referred to as a "line pumps" or "trailer-mounted" concrete pumps. Line pumps typically pump lower volumes of concrete than boom pumps and they are used for smaller volume concrete placing applications such as street sidewalks, residential home ground slabs and swimming pool foundations. This type of pump requires steel or flexible concrete placing hoses to be manually attached to the outlet of the machine. Those hoses are then linked together to form a continuous channel to where the concrete needs to be deposited.
A third type is known as "skid mounted" or "rail mounted" concrete pumps. These are less common, typically only used on specialized jobsites such as tunnels or mining sites.
