PUTZMEISTER vs SCHWING (hopper washout):
Vložit
- čas přidán 9. 02. 2024
- Establishing conclusive results for the decades long debate as to which concrete pump hopper design holds more residual concrete, as well as which one requires more water to washout. We put out a Putzmiester VS70 truck mounted line-pump up against the SP500 trailer-pump of Muddy Feet Concrete Pumping.
Classic Putz versus Schwing: HERE WE GO!!!
Man I absolutely love these kinds of videos that’s more informative and teaching style bc I’m still a newbie at pumping and I take all the info I can get and I really appreciate it. I wished yal still had the new putz and had a good wash out video but either way may I love y’all’s videos and appreciate all the work yal do!! Thanks!!
Appreciate the kind feedback. The new 1005 trailer which we had in loaner has gone back. Was a great little pump! Keep on learning, every single day (I still do).
I was literally thinking best part of the levers is the ease of cleaning the paddles.😂😂 It’s the little things…
100 percent! All the little things add up to a much less stressful/more enjoyable day for the operator.
the schwing hopper design with a rock valve is the easiest to clean out by far
In my admittedly limited experience with Schwing pumps, I would have to say that I 100% agree.
I've run a lot of Different Pump's in my almost 30 years of pumping concrete since I was a young kid from Hydroseal pump's which was the worst pump's to work and gate valve Schwing and Putzmister and the easiest hopper to wash out is a Schwing Rock Valve that's what I think here in IRELAND
Very entertaining, and you are barred from taking any Rorschach tests! Ray
lol!!!! I had to look up what a “Rorschach test” is 😂😂😂
Hey scott ! I’ve seen videos of asian guys when they wash the boom they put a sponge and they fill up the hopper with water and they leave no cement they dump all cement to truck mixer can that also work for Putzmeister booms ?
Schwing guys use what’s called a rake for cleaning the rock valve
I’ve seen them strapped to the hopper grate of new Schwing rigs. We need to build one for our 4800 trailer pump:
If you add 1 telescopic extension to the end of each boom, the length will double. Counterweight is required of course.
I’ve got a request off the subject of this video but if you ever get at opportunity to show how you typically tarp the back end of your boom pump, please do so. We’ve just recently got a new pump and I’ve been trying to train a new guy I’ve never had a worthy of typing, so not sure how most people tarp.
We use this same setup for our boom pumps, except cut the poly to 20’ long instead of the 16’ which we use for the line pumps.

Was that my Gordy’s hat ! ?
Nope. It’s too nice for wearing out on the job site.
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 I know my ccp hat is my new going out hat only ! Even then I don’t want to wear it out !
@@johnfarr3128 My Gordy’s hadt is coming out for date night in Valentine’s.
Just use a presure washer! That's my way to clean out mine
I like the pressure wash for the S-tube, but for rinsing the inside of the hopper I find that it back-splashes too much and makes a mess. Just a personal preference.
@canadianconcretepumper1979 you are right about the splash, but not in my case, I just found the way to make it nice and clean!😊
Also I use diesel fuel to coat the pump before pumping for easier wash out but it ruins clothes and I just think there’s something better and as cheap. What is it you all use?
I use canola oil. It works very well, and keeps the “enviro Karen’s” at bay..
Rake it out save on water
That seems to be the consensus. These Putz line-pump S-tubes can a little tricky to rake out due to their short length and drastic bend. Notorious for buildup after a long day of pumping shotcrete.
i have a splendid idea for longer booms, why can't manufacturers make both folding and telescopic booms at the same time?
I believe Sermac manufactured a 62 meter boom pump with a telescoping main section. From what I recall, there were some issues with it.

I get the feeling im a bit early to the party 🎉 lol
No such thing as too early 😂
I'd say it's a party worth being early too... thanks for the content dude.
I wonder if the author of these videos is a real person. 🧐
Ben!!!!
Call me (you still got my number?). If not, shoot me yours to @canadianconcretepumper@gmail.com
schwing's main boom is positioned to open in reverse. i dont like it
A lot of guys like it, I personally prefer a more conventional folding boom.
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 you know. American trucks are simple and crude in design.
