"For us, this machine is like winning the lottery", says Michael Jungmann, owner of Jungmann Estrichbau. Putzmeister salesman Carsten Tiepermann is hardly surprised about the exuberant feedback from his customer. He knows that screed professionals can work much more easily and flexibly with the fully automatic transport, mixing and delivery system from the construction machinery manufacturer in Aichtal.
For the master workshop based in Sulzfeld near Karlsruhe, this investment has already paid dividends. A job in Bauerbach nearly Bretten in Germany is one such example, where approx. 200 m² of self-levelling floor screed had to be placed in a detached house. The TransMix was initially loaded using a wheel loader. It was possible to start the delivery process immediately after arriving at the construction site without spending time setting up equipment.
Michael Jungmann sees one major benefit: "We can plan and execute trips based entirely on economic efficiency without having to coordinate concrete and mixing equipment or wait for material".
More jobs completed more quickly in a single TransMix working day
The TransMix saves valuable working time: it can be conveniently loaded with aggregate from a silo or wheel loader. Calcium sulphate for calcium sulphate self-levelling floor screed or cement compound for cement floor screed, for example, is poured into the split binder chamber.
The self-levelling floor screed is placed directly at the construction site in a computer-controlled process. A maximum of eight recipes can be stored, processed automatically and then logged.
Two workers can already prepare the next batch of screed during the active delivery process. The mixer and hoses must then be flushed through once to prevent contact with the binder. The cement floor screed can then be placed using additional aggregate. Remaining quantities of material and packaging waste are not produced so the machine can move on to the next job without delay.
About the TransMix 3200
The TransMix 3200 is a fully automatic transport, mixing and delivery system designed for the economical delivery of self-levelling floor screed. Whether mounted on a 4-axis chassis or a semi-trailer – every Brinkmann TransMix from Putzmeister is a unique (customer tailored system). The trough is the centrepiece of the machine and can be divided into a maximum of four chambers according to customer requirements. Depending on the vehicle, the total capacity is between 16 m3 and 49 m3.
Computer-controlled metering of materials ensures that the screed quality remains constant throughout the entire delivery process. The powerful worm pump at the rear ensures a permanent flow of material. It conveys self-levelling floor screed with a maximum particle size of 12 mm and up to 18 m3 an hour.
