2.2 TYPE OF MACHINE
The TB30 is a stationary machine for the distribution and projection of concretes and mortar. It is used autonomously and
independently and is only intended for professional operators.
2.3 OPERATION
The machine's main unit is the pumping unit. It consists of a lower hopper (FIG.2-1-REF.1) housing the S valve (FIG.2-1-
REF.2) and the mixer (FIG.2-1-REF.3). Two hydraulic jacks (FIG.2-1-REF.4) are found behind the hopper, that move the S
valve; two cylinders accept the concrete sucked by the hopper. A rubber piston that sucks/pumps the concrete is present in
each cylinder; the pistons are moved by hydraulic cylinders. A bowl (FIG.2-1-REF.5) containing water to cool and lubricate the
pistons during their run, is found between the concrete cylinders and the hydraulic cylinders.
Fresh concrete is poured inside the hopper; the internal grid preventing oversized aggregate from entering, is fitted with a
vibrator to facilitate unload. The concrete is firstly sucked inside the cylinders and then pumped towards the piping. The
alternating of sucking/pumping is produced by the S valve alternating communication between the cylinders and the piping.
The pumping system is hydraulically activated, with hydraulic pump at variable flow rate and valves unit distributing the oil. The
exchange sequence of the pumping unit is controlled by means of the machine's board.
The control board manages the main machine functions. Pumping start, stop and reversal can be directly controlled by the
operator by means of remote control via cable (standard) or radio control (optional).
