Power SystemÂ
1. Power host
The primary power source for the concrete pump machine is the power host. Electric motors and diesel engines are the two kinds of power hosts.
- Diesel engines with high torque and consistent performance are frequently employed in concrete pump machines.
- Because there is no requirement for an electrical source, a diesel concrete pump machine is better suited for building projects in power-scarce locations.
- Various power levels are available in the LUTON diesel concrete pump series, including 66KW, 82KW, 84KW, 129KW, etc.
- There are many LUTON electric concrete pump options available, including 37KW, 45KW, 90KW, and 110KW.

2. The Primary Oil Pump
Together with the power host, the main oil pump is the energy hub of the whole concrete pump machine. The hydraulic power source is the main oil pump.
LUTON concrete pump machines are outfitted with high-quality main oil pumps from well-known manufacturers. The displacements are optional, with the most common being 71ml/r, 112ml/r, and 140ml/r.
3. Mixer Machine
Mixer Machines are essential. The excellent quality of concrete products is dependent on the mixer machine’s performance.
High-quality mixer machines with a capacity of 25m3/h or 35m3/h are all popular in the LUTON concrete pump machine line.
4. Oil Cooling Pump
The oil cooling pump is the most important part of the oil cooling system. It circulates heated oil via the radiator line, which is cooled by a fan.
Hot oil will have an effect on operating stability and longevity. It is critical to maintaining an appropriate amount of oil temperature. The LUTON oil cooling system maintains the oil temperature consistently at 70°C, ensuring the hydraulic system’s excellent condition.
5. Hydraulic Motors and Cylinders
This is the system’s ultimate actuator, which causes the mechanism to work (stretch, swing, rotate, etc.).
System of Pumping
This is the major working portion that performs the concrete pumping process. It includes the main oil cylinder, water tank, S tube valve, swinging oil cylinder, hopper, etc.
1. The Primary Oil Cylinder
High-pressure oil pushes or pulls the piston rod in the primary oil cylinder. It is connected to the opposite end of the rod in the concrete cylinder and continually inhales and extrudes concrete.
Various sizes of LUTON’s main hydraulic cylinders are available to accommodate different production capacities. There are more than six configurations for oil cylinder diameter and stroke, including Φ80/845, Φ80/1000, Φ100/1000, Φ100/1100, Φ125/1650, Φ140/1800, and more.
As a result, the concrete cylinder is much larger than the main cylinder. LUTON concrete cylinders are available in nine different cylinder diameter and stroke configurations, including 140/845, 140/1000, 180/1000, 180/1100, 180/1300, 200/1000, 200/1800, 200/1650, and so on.
These various configurations are intended for the final goal of varying pumping capacity. Different output specifications are supported by LUTON Concrete Pump Machines, including 5m3/h, 10m3/h, 15m3/h, 20m3/h, 30m3/h, 40m3/h, 50m3/h, 60m3/h, 80m3/h, 90m3/h, 100m3/h, and so on.
2. Tank of Water
The water tank connects the hydraulic oil cylinder and the concrete cylinder. Its purpose is to cool and clean the piston rod.
3. The S tube valve
S tube valves are s-shaped tubes that connect the concrete output port to the two concrete cylinder ports. S tube valve is a valve at the same time. It connects one of the two-cylinder ports to the concrete output port on each swing to pump concrete out of the machine.
And the second port sucks in concrete to prepare for the next connection and then pumps out concrete.
It regulates the flow of concrete in and out, much like a switch.
4. Cylinder Swing
The mechanism that drives the s tube valve is the swing cylinder.
The swing cylinder is linked to the swingarm, which powers the fixed shaft on the S tube valve. The arm swings back and forth to activate the S tube valve’s left-right switch.
Hopper Hopper is the initial mechanism of the concrete pump machine with which concrete comes into contact. It is often fitted with a screen mesh and a vibrator to filter large particle stones and avoid clogging, allowing for more smooth concrete feeding.
Inside the hopper, mixing blades are operated by a separate hydraulic motor to make the concrete more homogeneous and avoid segregation.
System of Electric Control
The electric control system, which consists of a PLC and several electric components, is the brain of the whole concrete pump machine.
The PLC is the primary control unit in the system. All control instructions are delivered to all sections of the machine from here.
The Omron PLC and Schneider electrical components are used in the Luton concrete pump electric control system. International brand items provide optimum functioning performance.
Pipeline for Conveying Concrete
The concrete conveying pipeline is one of the most important accessories of a concrete pump machine.
LUTON concrete conveying pipeline comes in numerous varieties, including straight steel pipes, elbow steel pipes and high-pressure hoses.
Aside from cost-effective ordinary steel pipe, thicker seamless steel pipe is appropriate for high-pressure special operations.
Customers may choose from various combinations to match their specific building requirements.
These pipes, which are all in conformity with worldwide manufacturing standards, are simple to swap and connect.
The Benefits of a Concrete Pump Machine
The modern concrete building makes extensive use of concrete pump equipment. This is due to its many benefits.
1. Adaptable and Convenient
- It can transport concrete to a tight or high building site where standard concrete equipment cannot reach it.
- Operators can simply modify the location of the pipes or hoses by changing the position and direction of the pipelines or hoses.
2. Resource-Saving and Economical
Using a concrete pump machine is an excellent way to save people, energy, time, and money. A concrete pump is a multi-purpose machine that does not need a lot of manpower or other equipment.
3. Efficient
Concrete pump machines have a large pumping capacity. They can transfer concrete to practically any building site in a short period. Pumping work will begin as soon as it arrives at the project site. After completing the task at hand, the concrete pump equipment may be moved to another location in the same amount of time.
