Shotcrete mixing with Tecwill’s innovative on-conveyor fiber feed that reduces mixing time and fiber clumps.
- More accurate weighing
- Less cement
- Correct slump
Multipurpose hybrid plant.
No need for a separate shotcrete plant, as the same unit can mix all mix designs.
The same plant can mix:
- Shotcrete with all types of fibers
- Ready-mix concrete
- Backfill, if the necessary equipment is included in delivery
- Precast concrete
Modular construction making the concrete plant fast to install, even in winter, and easy to relocate and reinstall year-round.
Tecwill preassembles the complete concrete plant at its own factory. This includes pre-wiring, piping, thermal insulation enclosure and plant testing.
- Fast set-up time, even in winter
- Easy to relocate and reinstall year-round
- Reliable winter operations
