How to choose concrete pump pipes

Release time:Feb 15,2022        Click amount:299

        With the rise of the construction industry, there are also more and more concrete projects. Concrete pumps are used in all projects with concrete pouring, and pump pipes are essential conveying accessories. The commonly used concrete conveying machinery includes trailer pumps, truck mounted pumps, and truck mounted pumps. The quality of domestic and foreign brands is also constantly emerging, and each brand has its own piping parameters and selection. How to choose a suitable concrete pump pipe? For example, well-known domestic brands such as Sany, Zoomlion, and XCMG, as well as veteran foreign brands like Elephant, have pump pipe parameters determined based on pump truck parameters and have different uses. Drag pumps, vehicle mounted pumps, and pipelines on vehicle pumps are all called concrete delivery pump pipes.

        The pump pipes on trailer pumps and truck mounted pumps are usually used for high-rise or long-term concrete pouring projects. Because trailer pumps and truck mounted pumps are transported upwards from the ground, the pipes used are also called ground pump pipes. The ground pump pipes require pressure bearing and uniform pipe layout. The conventional length is 3 meters, 2 meters, 1 meter, 0.5 meters or even shorter as regulating pipes, and the model ranges from DN80-DN150. According to engineering requirements, DN125 is widely used. When there is no high difficulty operation, DN125 high pressure or low pressure can be selected because of the need for pressure bearing. The material is mostly made of 20 # steel, and the steel pipes of 20 # steel have toughness and non explosive pipes. When parallel transportation is not far away, straight seam pipes can be used, which is low-cost. Waste of resources, of course, it is recommended to use seamless pump tubing when the budget is sufficient. The thickness also ranges from 3mm to 12mm, and should be determined from a safety perspective based on factors such as the distance, height, volume, and medium of transportation. For example, for ordinary buildings, it is only about 50 meters, and using 125 * 4.5 or * 5 can achieve pressure. The pipe clamps at the connection also vary in weight. The use of straight seam pump tubes for laying short distances with low utilization rate is cost-effective. Of course, this is a concrete grade between C20-30. When designing bridges, piers, and large buildings, these ordinary pump pipes are not enough because the concrete grade used in these projects is around C50, the concrete slump is low, and the aggregate in the concrete is also very large. Ordinary pump pipes cannot withstand pressure and friction. For example, for ordinary height transportation of C50 concrete, a 125 high-pressure pump pipe can be used to increase the wall thickness or increase the firmness of the flange. However, some super tall buildings with a length of tens or even hundreds of meters will definitely use DN150 pump pipes, because the 150 pump pipes not only have good flow through the pipe body and a wall thickness of * 10 or * 12, but also have double flanges fixed with bolts and seals to ensure construction safety.


       Car pumps, also known as boom pumps or sky pumps, are equipped with straight and curved pump pipes whose lengths are determined based on the original parameters of the pump truck when it leaves the factory. For example, Sany 46 meters, 56 meters, Zhonglian 47 meters, and so on, all have a set of very accurate parameters, with varying lengths, because the pump tube and elbow need to be installed according to the length of the arm extension, and there is a half centimeter error that cannot be installed, which is different from dragging the pump tube. Car pump pipes require wear resistance, so they are also called wear-resistant pipes or sky pump pipes. Most of them use alloy pipes with a material of 55Mn or above, including single-layer wear-resistant pipes and double-layer wear-resistant pipes. After high-frequency inner wall quenching process, the hardness and toughness are combined. Because it is quite troublesome to replace pump truck pipes, all pump truck pipes should be selected with pump pipes with a long service life. The diameter of the pump pipes on the pump truck is relatively uniform. Regardless of the brand of pump truck, DN125 pump pipes are used. This has been consistent since the first pump truck appeared in the world. People often stand on the pump truck platform, and thick explosion-proof pipes should be used in this position to avoid injury caused by pipe bursting.

        Concrete pump pipes are the main accessories of pumping machinery. Many inexperienced users who purchase concrete pumps do not know how to pipe them. Kangkrui has many years of experience in the research and production of pump pipes and concrete pump accessories, mainly producing high-pressure and low-pressure concrete pump pipes, single-layer and double-layer pump truck wear-resistant pipes, cast elbows, concrete cone pipes, concrete laying machines and other engineering machinery and accessories. As a pump pipe manufacturer with 23 years of factory production experience, we are willing and welcome to call for consultation. Our company will recommend the selection of concrete conveying pump pipes based on the working conditions in a rational manner, so as to reduce costs and increase benefits. Kangkrei's products are sent to various parts of the world and have contributed to many landmark buildings both domestically and internationally.
