Self-loading concrete mixers
One machine drives to the aggregate, loads itself, mixes on the move and discharges where you point it. No batching plant, no mixer truck, no crew. Six sizes — pick one by how much concrete you need per load, and by how the machine has to reach your yard.
Figures below come from plant specification documents. Where a figure is missing, the cell is empty — we would rather show a gap than a number that merely looks right.

The machines
Photographed at the plant and cut out so nothing but the machine is in the frame. Barrel and pan drums, bucket up and down, discharge chute and running gear.






Shipping
This is where a cheap machine turns expensive. Ocean freight for an out-of-gauge unit can move your landed cost more than the difference between two models, so we publish the loading position for every machine before you ask.
What blocks a machine from a container is the door frame, not the internal height.
A 40HQ gives you 2.698 m inside — but only a 2.585 m door opening, and after a 5 cm handling margin you are working with 2.29 m wide by 2.535 m high. Internal height is what a spec sheet advertises; the door is what the machine has to go through.
| Container | Internal L × W × H (m) | Door W × H (m) | Usable after 5 cm margin (m) | Payload limit (t) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 20GP | 5.898 × 2.352 × 2.393 | 2.343 × 2.28 | 2.293 × 2.23 | 28 |
| 40GP | 12.032 × 2.352 × 2.393 | 2.34 × 2.28 | 2.29 × 2.23 | 26.5 |
| 40HQ | 12.032 × 2.352 × 2.698 | 2.34 × 2.585 | 2.29 × 2.535 | 26.5 |
SLM-10 · Ships in a standard 40 ft high-cube container
Two units go in one 40HQ — a measured geometric fit, not yet a confirmed payload: the plant has not supplied this model’s operating weight in writing. Freight moves with the route and the sailing, so we quote it against your port rather than publish a number that expires.
Nose to tail on the container floor, drawn to scale from the machine's verified length and width.
Three questions decide it, and only one of them is about the machine.
Discharge volume is what you actually buy. A machine that discharges more per cycle does fewer cycles for the same slab — but it is also heavier, wider and more expensive to ship. Size it to your typical pour, not to your largest one.
A machine that passes a standard container door ships in a box. Anything wider or taller goes on a flat rack, an open top or a roll-on/roll-off vessel, and that decision moves your landed cost more than most people expect. Every model below states its position.
Articulated machines pivot at the waist and turn in a shorter space, which matters on narrow rural roads and tight yards. Rigid-chassis machines steer at the front wheels. The steering type is listed on each model where the plant has confirmed it.

Longer pieces on the decisions that move a landed cost. Every figure in them names its source; what could not be sourced is listed at the end of each one.
