The working principle of self loading mixer includes automatic weighing, loading, mixing, mobile transporting, and automatic discharging.
Next, I will introduce them one by one and share their important components, cleaning, and maintenance in detail so that you can better understand how a self loading mixer works and improve its effectiveness and longevity.
Weighing
Automatic weighing of self loading mixers is one of the key technologies for efficient and accurate concrete preparation.
- Weighing Principle: Before the materials enter the mixing cylinder, the self loading concrete mixer will automatically measure the proportion of raw materials such as cement, water, sand and gravel through the measuring device set between the hopper and the mixing cylinder.
- Easy Operation: Adopting advanced computer control technology.
- Good performance: It can accurately monitor and adjust the weight of raw materials such as cement, sand, and gravel to ensure that the quality of concrete meets the construction requirements.
Loading
The front end of the self-loading mixer truck is assembled with a loading robot arm and bucket, which can automatically load raw materials, such as cement, sand, stone, etc. into its internal mixing tank to complete the loading operation.
- Working Principle: Through the operator’s control or preset automatic program, adjust the position and angle of the bucket to align the materials. The bucket is lifted and the material is loaded. Then continue to move the self concrete mixer to lift the material. When the material reaches a certain height, the hydraulic cylinder starts to work, pushing the bucket to tilt, so that the material slides into the bucket.

Mixing
After loading, the mixing tank starts to rotate.
- Vehicle Power: Driven by the vehicle’s power, the mixing tank containing the raw materials rotates at a specific speed.
- Mix Well: The mixing tank is equipped with spiral mixing blades. When the tank rotates, the blades drive the sand, cement, and water to mix evenly to form the required concrete.
Mobile Transporting
Aimix self loading mixer concrete has good mobility and can be driven flexibly in different working environments.
- Working Principle: Staff can control the vehicle by operating the steering wheel and maneuvering the seat in the cab. Through automation and an intelligent loading mechanism, the self loader is able to complete a large number of cargo loading and transporting tasks in a short period of time.
- Extra Benefit：At the same time, it is also able to monitor the surrounding environment in real time and make the appropriate driving decisions, timely adjustment of operating parameters to protect the safety of the mobile process.
Discharging
The well-mixed concrete uses the rotation of the mixing tank to flow out through the 120° tilted outlet.
After arriving at the construction site, the operator can adjust the tilt angle and rotation direction of the mixing tank through the operation control system to achieve precise unloading and pouring of concrete.
Essential Components
Understanding the important components of a self-loading truck is important for understanding how a self loader mixer works.
Also, it helps to carry out troubleshooting during operation and improve work efficiency.
Next, I will describe a few of the important components of a self loading mixer.
Rounded Bucket – Smooth Loading and Discharging
- Improved Shape: The bucket of the third generation product is pressed with a round arc, smooth, and with the assistance of the vibrator, the feeding effect is smoother.
- Good Performance: The capacity of the bucket is 0.7 cubic meters, and the arc transition between the bottom plate of the bucket and the drop plate makes the discharging of the material smoother and greatly reduces the material sticking to the wall.
Weighing System
- Simple Operation: The weighing system adopts an artificial intelligence interactive system. So it is for staffs to learn how to operate the self loading concrete mixer for weighing. The operator can quickly master the operation method and improve the working efficiency. Moreover, it can quickly diagnose the cause of the abnormality when the weighing system is abnormal, which saves downtime.
- Low Error: The weighing system uses the latest weighing solutions to ensure that the weighing error can be guaranteed to be no more than 2 percent, compared to the 20 to 30 percent error in the market.
- Touchable Screen: And it is equipped with a large 13.5-inch HD screen that allows for full-touch operation, which is simple and convenient.
6 Spiral 8 Paddles
6 screw blades and 8 mixing push plates are installed inside the mixing tank, which makes the mixing more uniform.
They also improve the mixing efficiency of the concrete and can increase the speed of loading and discharging, avoiding the broken flow of concrete when discharging.
4 Tugs
The tank has 4 towing wheels, 2 support wheels 2 auxiliary wheels, and 6 bearings on one side, which guarantee the stability of the tank and ensure the safety of travelling and production.
Steering Wheel and Manoeuvring Seat
The steering wheel and maneuvering seat are configured in the cab to control vehicle movement. The driver can move the self-loading vehicle by simply operating these two devices.
Brake System
Aimix self loading mixer truck has a very good braking effect and higher safety.
- Large Air Storage Tank: it has a large air storage capacity in the brake storage tank, and the lower side of the tank is equipped with an automatic bleeder valve and the upper side is equipped with a bleeder safety valve.
- Dual Air Pumps: at the same time, it adopts dual brake pumps for cross-braking to ensure braking safety.
270° Rotation of the Tank
The mixing tank of the self-loader mixer can be rotated around 270°, enabling the Aimix self loading mixer to achieve multi-angle and multi-direction unloading.
Staff can operate the mixing tank flexibly in the cab to unload the concrete at the set position.
120° Outlet Design
The discharge port of the mixing tank is designed at 120°, which is conducive to the smooth discharge of materials and does not easily cause material blockage.
At the same time, it reduces the splashing phenomenon when dropping the material and avoids material waste.
Cleaning and Maintenance
To protect the safety of self loading mixer trucks and improve the efficiency of self loading mixers, we need to clean and maintain self-loading trucks.
Timely Cleaning
After each unloading, to prevent concrete residue from curing and affecting the next use, self-loading trucks need to be cleaned of components such as mixing drums and loading hoppers.
With specialized water tanks and washing systems, it is possible to rinse immediately after unloading is completed, ensuring clean and normal operation of the equipment.
Regular Maintenance
The use of the self loading mixer is mainly based on personal use and maintenance of the situation has a great relationship, so pay attention to the late maintenance.
- Need to pay special attention to the regular replacement of the engine’s three filters and other filters; as well as to irregularly check the various types of oil, that need to be replaced in time!
- In order to ensure the normal operation of the self-loading truck, we will also provide free maintenance reminders and technical advice.
