Key Features of the MX-10 Refractory Shotcrete Equipment
1. Ultra-High-Pressure Piston Pump
The MX-10 features a 3-inch × 24-inch ultra-high-pressure swing tube piston pump with a specified pumping pressure of 2,200 PSI.
This high-pressure pumping system is designed for dense refractory pump-cast and shotcrete applications where reliable material delivery is essential.
Its pumping configuration supports refractory installation work involving challenging material characteristics and extended pumping distances.
2. High-Torque Hydraulic Pan Mixer
The MX-10 incorporates a hydraulic pan mixer with a mixing capacity of 2,200 pounds.
The mixer is designed to blend refractory materials thoroughly, with a stated mixing time of approximately 1.5 to 2 minutes. Proper mixing is important for achieving the material consistency required for the intended placement method.
The appropriate mixing procedure depends on the refractory manufacturer's material specifications and the installation requirements.
3. Material Output of Up to 10 Tons per Hour
The MX-10 is designed to deliver up to 10 tons of refractory material per hour under suitable operating conditions.
Its specifications also list a volumetric output range of 0–12 cubic yards per hour. Actual production depends on material density, mix formulation, pumping distance, and job-site conditions.
This capacity makes the MX-10 a practical option to evaluate for industrial projects requiring substantial refractory material placement.
4. Vertical Pumping Capability
The MX-10 is commonly used to pump suitable refractory materials over vertical distances exceeding 300 feet.
This capability supports installations where refractory material must be delivered to elevated or otherwise difficult-to-access areas.
Actual pumping performance depends on material properties, pipeline configuration, elevation changes, and operating conditions.
5. Swing-Out Receiving Hopper
The swing-out receiving hopper provides access to the lower hopper and swing tube section for cleaning and maintenance.
The lower hopper also features forklift tubing to facilitate flat-pack removal, helping simplify handling during appropriate maintenance and equipment servicing procedures.
6. Integrated Water Measurement and Introduction
The MX-10 includes a Fill-Rite water meter and a 20-gauge dousing bucket designed for fast water introduction.
These features support the water-measuring and material-preparation process. Water addition should follow the refractory manufacturer's recommended mix design and installation procedures.
7. Reliable Electronic Controls
The MX-10 features solid-state electronic controls designed to support machine operation. Its specifications identify solid-state valve control, and the machine is listed with CE certification.
Contractors should confirm the applicable electrical configuration, certification documentation, and site compliance requirements when ordering the equipment.
