The Difference between the Concrete Mixer Truck and the Self-loading Concrete Mixer Truck  

2022-05-19 17:33:58 We all know that the concrete mixer truck and the self-loading concrete mixer can both mix concrete. That’s one of the same functions. But, what is difference between them?
 
Firstly, the appearance. You can clearly see their difference on appearance. Usually, the concrete mixer truck is larger than the self-loading concrete mixer truck. The cab of the concrete mixer truck is like some other trucks, such as dump trucks, and the cab is in front of the mixing tank. While the cab of the self-loading concrete mixer truck is more like a operation room, and is beside the mixing tank.
 


Second, the capacity of the mixing tank. Usually, the capacity of concrete mixer truck ranges from 3 CBM to 18 CBM, while the capacity of self-loading concrete mixer truck ranges from 0.8 CBM to 6.5 CBM.
 


Third, the structure. The concrete mixer truck is mainly composed of a chassis system, a hydraulic transmission system, a loading and unloading system and a cleaning system. The self-loading concrete mixer truck is mainly composed of a mixing drum, a loading and unloading mechanism, a water supply system, a prime mover, a transmission mechanism, a frame and a supporting device.
 
Above are three main differences between the concrete mixer truck and the self-loading concrete mixer truck. If you have other ideas, welcome to talk with us!
