www.concreteproducts.com June 2015 • 35 FEATURE COVER STORY The HPGM 750 (0.65 yd., base mixes) and HPFM 375 (0.33 yd., face mixes) high shear mixers are mounted on a robust mixer platform with spacious work area, and receive aggregate from two independent skip hoists. The mixers charge a fying bucket for effcient mix transport to the Alpha 2/5-600 machine. Advanced Concrete Technologies delivered a new cement screw distribution system, conveying powder from two existing silos to two in- dependent scales, one for each mixer. ACT previously installed a Würschum COM 70-2 precision granule pigment metering system, now integrated with the new equipment. With four primary colors (two reds plus one yellow, one black), it enables producers to offer virtually any earth tone color concrete on demand. With robust perimeter safety features, the turntable-style Kalkman Alpha 2/5-600 affords Triple H Concrete expanded capabilities in its core patio stone and slab product offerings, including increasingly larger units.
