The term "line pump" refers to the fact that concrete is pumped through a series of pipes or hoses, allowing it to be directed to specific areas on the construction site. This is in contrast to boom pumps, which use a robotic arm (boom) to place concrete at specific locations.
Line concrete pumps are commonly used for smaller construction projects, such as residential and commercial buildings, where access may be limited. They are suitable for delivering concrete to places where traditional methods, such as wheelbarrows or conveyor belts, may be impractical or time-consuming.
The basic components of a line concrete pump include a hopper to receive the concrete mix, a pumping system to move the concrete through pipes, and a distribution system (pipes or hoses) to direct the concrete to the desired location. These pumps play a crucial role in the efficiency and speed of concrete placement on construction sites.
