What is a concrete pumping system?

Challenges with Energy Conservation of Concrete Pumps A pumping system is a common part of trailer concrete pumps, transported concrete pumps and truck-mounted concrete pumps, and it works in a continuous periodical pumping process.

Does truck-mounted concrete pump save energy?

The comparison test results of the fuel consumption for the new and old power matching strategies showed that in the area where the pumping capacity is 10~80 m 3 /h, the truck-mounted concrete pump has remarkable energy-saving effect, the fuel-saving rate could reach 22~46%, and the comprehensive fuel-saving rate was 16%.

Does construction machinery for pumping concrete conserve energy?

To date, in the literature, many contributions toward energy conservation for concrete pumps can be found. This paper aims to carry out a review on the energy conservation of construction machinery for pumping concrete. The research methodology of this paper comprises a quantitative analysis method and literature investigation method.

How does a concrete pump truck work?

The controller of the concrete pump truck could automatically adjust the output power of the engine according to the change in the actual working conditions, and maintained a good match with the load, so that the engine always ran at the best working point or the best working area, so that the output power of the engine could be fully utilized.

What are the methods for energy conservation of concrete pumps?

According to the results of the literature search, the methods for energy conservation of concrete pumps can be classified into three types: the power matching approach, dual-fuel approach and dual power approach, as shown in Table 1. Table 1. Classification of methods for energy conservation of concrete pumps. 4.1. Power Matching Approach

Does Power matching reduce fuel consumption of truck-mounted concrete pump?

According to the working condition analysis and fuel consumption test results of the truck-mounted concrete pump in the assessment, the proposed power matching control strategy is expected to reduce the fuel consumption of the whole machine by more than 10%.
