Mecbo America Introduces Tracked Concrete Pumps for Versatility

Mecbo America, a division of Blastcrete Equipment LLC formed through a distribution agreement with Mecbo Srl, announces the launch of two products to the American market: the CARTRACK P6 and P7. These innovative concrete pumps pair a powerful electric or diesel pump with a crawler undercarriage to maximise mobility and maneuverability on the jobsite. The 150-horsepower P6 and 180-horsepower P7 place concrete at volumes of 104 to 144 cubic yards per hour, making them an ideal solution for a wide variety of applications including continuous flight augering, drilling, tunneling and commercial construction. A simple toggle radio remote control provides smooth handling and efficient operation, eliminating the issues seen when touchscreens interact with concrete covered gloves. “Track-mounted pumps are not new to this market, but what we’ve done is add Mecbo’s patented PULSAR pump, which offers more power and lower maintenance demands,” said Blastcrete co-CEO Scott Knighton. Mecbo’s patented PULSAR pump system features a long stroke, allowing the pump to push more concrete with less movement. That translates to greater output with less wear and tear on the pump. In addition, the smooth pump performance virtually eliminates pressure fluctuation even when pumping long distances. “With more than 75 years in the concrete pumping business, our team understands what customers want; and we work hard to give the best functionality to ensure easy and maintenance-free operation,” Knighton continued. “They don’t need bells and whistles, they need a simple, rugged, efficient system.” All Mecbo America products are serviced by trained and experienced service technicians and application specialists at Blastcrete Equipment LLC. A full array of common wear parts are housed at the Blastcrete facility in Anniston, Alabama, for fast and convenient shipping anywhere in the Americas, drastically reducing downtime. When working with Mecbo America, operators benefit from reduced maintenance thanks to Mecbo’s patented pump system and Blastcrete’s dedicated customer support and robust spare parts program. Both the CARTRACK P6 and P7 feature two hatches to make routine maintenance easier. The CARTRACK series can come with an optional water pump, compressor, hopper screen vibrator for harsh mixes, radio remote control and pipelines and accessories for specialised projects. Mecbo America offers the P6 and P7 with several customisation options. Both come standard with a crawler undercarriage but can also be installed on wheels or trucks. The diesel models have a soundproofing option for work at times and in areas where noise reduction is important. Safety was prioritised in designing the P6 and P7, as both feature a walkway with steps, handrails and lights.
