Expanding market again~ Recently, our self loading concrete mixer has been successfully operated in Papua New Guinea, which helps the customer to overcome the geographical limitations and achieve the localization and efficiency of concrete construction. Let’s take a look at the details of this project.
Customer’s Goal: Construction in Mountainous Areas
Papua New Guinea (PNG) is located in Oceania, with complex terrain and weak infrastructure, and many remote areas are difficult to access and transport concrete.
A local construction company had undertaken several small civil engineering projects, including H65 residential buildings and rural road construction, and was in urgent need of a concrete mixing plant that could operate efficiently in a complex environment. The customer wants to achieve easy production and construction of concrete in a remote area that lacks large-scale mixing plants and transport conditions.
Practical Obstacles: Traffic Constraints and Equipment Adaptability Challenges
Terrain constraintsMany of the construction sites are located in mountainous or jungle areas with narrow and rugged roads that are difficult to access with conventional mixing trucks.
High transport costsCentralised mixing and transport can be time-consuming, and the concrete is prone to curing, which affects the quality of the work.
Inadequate power supplySome of the sites in Papua New Guinea lack stable power, so diesel-powered equipment is more in line with the actual needs.
Immediate Action: Customised Solution – Aimix Self Loading Mixer
In response to the customer’s needs, we recommended the AS-3.5B self-loading mixer, which has the following advantages:
- All-in-one design: loading, mixing and transporting in one unit, no need for additional concrete tanker and adaptable to narrow roads.
- Diesel-powered drive: does not rely on external power, suitable for operation in areas without electricity.
- Flexible and efficient: it can produce 3.5 cubic metres of concrete per hour, which meets the needs of small projects, and is easy to operate and maintain.
In addition, we provided localized training to ensure that the customer’s team was proficient in operating the equipment and was equipped with long-term after-sales service support.
Result and Benefits: Improved Construction Efficiency and Project Progress
The AS-3.5 self-loading mixer has significantly improved the customer’s construction conditions:
Shortened construction period
- Concrete was mixed on-site, eliminating long-distance transport time and accelerating project progress by more than 30%.
Reduced costs
- Reduced reliance on large-scale mixing plants, transport and labour costs were significantly reduced.
Expanded business scope
- The client was able to undertake more projects in remote areas, including schools, health centres and other livelihood projects, which boosted local infrastructure development.
The customer is very satisfied with our concrete solutions. At the moment, this self-loading concrete mixer is efficiently producing concrete. If you want to know more about this concrete mixer, welcome to contact us.
