Schwing M24 on MB Arocs 2633
We have recently taken delivery of two new Schwing mobile concrete boom pumps. These have now been through our workshops and fitted with all of the additional equipment/signage required to make them Crossrail compliant and compatible with our FORS Silver accreditation. The first pump has a 24-metre boom, in Schwing terminology an S24X.
The pump unit is a P2020 giving a maximum of 90m3/hour and up to 70 bar line pressure in the standard configuration. We consider this pump to be the workhorse of the fleet. The M24 mobile concrete boom pump is the most popular size with a broad range of our customers; it is very versatile and is suitable for working inside a building as well as out in the open. As with all of our pumps, it is mounted on a Mercedes Benz truck in this case a 330bhp, 3 axle Arocs chassis.
The Arocs range is designed to be robust enough to withstand the rigours of the construction industry. In addition to this pump, we have also taken a new 20-metre boom pump. Our M20 mobile concrete pump is the latest iteration of the Schwing S20 boom, designed with a very narrow outrigger spread to work in the tightest of spots. In the fullness of time, we believe that this model will supersede our M16 boom pumps and become the new City Pump.
