Rapid loading from a central mix batch plant

Rapid loading from a central mix batch plant

Maxon Industries reports that their Agitor is the only unit which incorporates an open-top, concrete haul body for rapid loading from a central mix batch plant; an agitator shaft to ensure quality concrete with every load transported; and various chute options to meter concrete to buckets and pump hoppers or large paving chutes to place directly to grade as fast as a dump truck. 

“It has been an exciting and busy past 12 months,” said Bill Maxon, President, Maxon Industries, Inc. “We have supplied units to a number of high profile projects worldwide including 36 truck-mounted Agitors to Panama for construction of the third lane for the Panama Canal.” The company also manufactured their 1,000th Agitor.

Recent Agitor product improvements introduced by Maxon include new hydraulic valves, side-mounted operator’s ladders for easier inspection/washdown, and adjustable agitator shafts that can handle any concrete mix design, from zero slump/large aggregate concrete to SCC and grout mixes.
