The AC-1 is the most basic design of the models we offer, as well as the most common of the rotary type of operation. The performance of the machine offers reliability, low operating costs, and easy handling. The flexibility of uses allows you to adapt the AC-1 for most types of gunning concrete works (shotcrete works).
● The most mobile and compact in the market. ● Outlay on consumables reduced by 30%, thanks to the design with one sealing plate. ● Work without pulsation and jerks. ● Reliable disk variator for smooth change of productivity. ● The bunker on 160 kg of mixture. ● Loading height - 1 m.
The AC-2 is based on the classic rotary principle with the drum revolver type. The performance of the machine provides a large margin of safety, high reliability of accessories, and the probability of working with shotcrete materials (gunning materials) of any density, including refractory mixtures with a large angle of slope. Flexibility in use allows adapting the AC-2 to most types of shotcrete work.
● Classic design with two sealing plates. ● The most compact of revolver machines. ● Reliable disk variator for smooth performance changes. ● Conveniently works with fine-grained and powdery mixtures. ● An extra mixer provides full mix coverage. ● Dosing drum cells, even with wet mixes. ● Height of loading is 1,1 m.
The AC-3 is based on the rotor principle of work. The performance of the AC-3 shotcrete equipment delivers a large margin of safety for operation in harsh conditions, as well as the versatility of dry and wet methods. The machine is recommended to be used for large amounts of laying shotcrete concrete in the conditions of mines, tunneling, and for mounting slopes.
● Impressive vandal-resistant construction with a 10-fold safety margin. ● Easy to move around the construction site. ● Ability to work with both dry and wet methods. ● Height of loading is 1,2 m. ● Ability to work with a filler fraction of up to 20 mm.
The AC-4 is a pneumo supercharger, which provides unprecedented versatility - from preparation and transport of the mixture in quality of mortar pump to plastering and shotcreting - all this produced by a single machine. Replaceable nozzles and nozzle holders allow you to adapt the machine to the desired type of work. In the design of the equipment, there are no consumable parts.
● Pumps hard concrete with mobility from P1 and segments up to 16 mm. ● Significantly smaller and more compact than similar equipment. ● The ability to prepare mixtures in the machine itself. ● Ability to use as a plaster station and for the semi-dry screed. ● Ability to use as a mortar pump.
The AC-5 is a production machine for new construction sites and the finishing work for premises. In most instances to achieve the advantages of wet shotcrete with the use of high-quality solutions and at the same time thixotropic, and also being highly mobile for pumping through hoses; the equipment is technically complex and cumbersome and therefore, costly. The utilisation of the AC-5 wet shotcrete machine, on the contrary, is extremely simple and reliable thanks to the unique peristaltic principle of operation.
● Does not violate the environment of the pumped mixture. ● No contact of metal parts with abrasive material. ● Only 1 consumable item. ● Modular construction. ● Ability to reverse operation. ● Ability to use as a mortar pump and injection station. ● Easy to move around the construction site or premises.
TORNADO peristaltic dosing pumps are used to supply liquid additives to concrete during dry and wet shotcrete work.
The pump delivers the liquid admixture from the tank to the mixing chamber of the shotcrete nozzle, where the admixture is mixed into the shotcrete.
The pump is equipped with a flow meter and capacity adjustment, which allows you to set the exact dosage of the additive.
The dosing pump is connected to the shotcrete unit via a control cable.
Equipped with a flow meter.
Compatible with various shotcrete rigs.
Warranty period of operation of the unit is 12 months from the date of sale.
