This machine is innovative and indispensible for farmers, brick makers, contractors and the do-it-yourself home builder. Designed for the real world, it fits in a pickup, fits your job and fits your budget. Mixer has 5 handles to increase ergonomic efficiency. Constructed of all ball bearing mounts, a 2.5mm thick steel drum, it is portable enough for two men to carry to the job site.
With a robust 140 litre drum, this solid machine can mix a full wheelbarrow (65 litres) of concrete at a time. Mixing is fast and complete as the 21 chain "fingers" do their work. The hand operated Concrete Mixer can properly mix 65 (wet) Litres of concrete in about 45 seconds. It takes less than half the total energy of shovel-mixing, does it in half the time and with only half the variation in cured strength (Univ. of Witwatersrand tests).
Mixing can produce "dry" mixes for making blocks and bricks in about 90 seconds, with a capacity of over one wheelbarrow at a time.It can mix enough material for a typical 3-per-drop 9 inch hollow manual block making machine. This is more than 15 tons of mix per day. Such a production center would take 5 people to run and feed the mixer and 2 for the machine (such as a Wilkinson Block Maker). No engines or motors are used on such an operation and could produce 900 to 1000 9 inch blocks per day (20 Kg each).
It has no engine, no fuel, no oil, no belts, no gears, no wires and little to no servicing is needed. It has: good balance, ball bearings, grease nipples and robust steel construction.
