How to choose your professional concrete mixer and why choose a model from the Manitou range?
How to choose your professional concrete mixer?
As with other handling equipment, you should select your concrete mixer based on several criteria such as; the mixing volume required for your work, the type of engine electric or gas, the frequency of use, the ease of towing, service and advice associated with it, the safety of the users, and the availability of spare parts.
- Volume of the tank / mixing capacity of the mortar / concrete : this is of course an essential, and as an intensive professional or semi-professional user, you will have to pay attention to the capacity of the tank, which allows you to save time to optimize your masonry work.
- Type of engine: gas or electric?
The electric concrete mixer requires little maintenance and is generally lighter and easier to handle. It is silent, and recommended for urban or indoor renovation sites.
As for the gas concrete mixer, it is more powerful, robust, and adapted to larger sites and large outdoor construction work. It allows to be autonomous on a building site without electrical installation.
The dimensions and organization of your work sites will determine the choice of concrete mixer for your future equipment.
