Ultra High Pressure Pump for Refractory Applications: Introducing the MX-20CM

The MX-20CM from Blastcrete is a high-performance mixer/pump designed for demanding refractory placement and shotcrete applications. Combining a high-shear continuous mixer with an ultra high pressure swing tube pump, the MX-20CM provides a practical solution for both smaller refractory jobs and high-volume industrial installations.

With an output of up to 25 tons per hour and a piston face pressure of 2,200 PSI, this system is designed for contractors and industrial operators looking for efficient material mixing and pumping in a single machine.

2200 PSI Refractory Pump for High-Performance Applications

At the heart of the MX-20CM is a 4" x 36" swing tube piston pump capable of delivering 2,200 PSI piston face pressure. This high-pressure pumping system is suited to rugged refractory pump cast and shotcrete applications where reliable material delivery is essential.

The oversized differential cylinders allow the pump to operate with comparatively lower hydraulic pressure while maintaining high discharge pressure. This design contributes to efficient operation while supporting demanding placement requirements.

High Shear Continuous Mixer

The MX-20CM incorporates a compact two-stage mixing system. The primary high-shear continuous mixer hydrates the material before it moves into a secondary medium-shear mixer located in the receiving hopper.

The mixer is rated for output of up to 25 tons per hour, allowing the machine to support both smaller installations and high-volume refractory work.

This two-stage mixing arrangement can also help reduce cleanup time and minimize material waste. Dust generated during charging of the continuous mixer is designed to be greatly reduced, making the overall process cleaner and more efficient.

High Capacity Refractory Processing

For industrial applications requiring substantial material throughput, the MX-20CM offers:

Pump output of up to 25 tons per hour
Mixer output of up to 25 tons per hour
2,200 PSI piston face pressure
4" x 36" ultra high pressure swing tube pump
3,000 lb. dry hopper capacity
1,500 lb. receiving hopper capacity
Hydraulic agitator in the receiving hopper

This combination makes the MX-20CM a versatile option for refractory placement, pump casting, and shotcrete-related operations.

Designed for Easier Maintenance

Maintenance accessibility is an important part of the MX-20CM design. Its swing-out receiving hopper provides easier access to the swing tube section for cleaning and servicing.

The machine also features forklift tubing mounted to the lower hopper for convenient flat-pack removal. A four-point crane pickup system allows overhead lifting without requiring a spreader bar.

These features can help simplify routine service and material handling on demanding job sites.

Efficient Power Options

The MX-20CM is available with several power configurations, including:

99 HP John Deere water-cooled diesel
102 HP Deutz water-cooled diesel
Dual electric motors

The machine is designed around approximately 100 HP, with the manufacturer stating that its efficient mixer-and-pump configuration can reduce fuel consumption by up to 50% compared with competitive machines.

Why Consider the MX-20CM?

The MX-20CM combines mixing and pumping into one integrated system, making it suitable for operations where material preparation and high-pressure placement need to work together efficiently.

Its ultra high pressure pump, 2,200 PSI piston face pressure, 25-ton-per-hour capacity, and high-shear continuous mixer make it particularly relevant for demanding refractory and shotcrete applications.

For companies searching for an ultra high pressure pump, 2200 PSI refractory pump, high-capacity refractory mixer, or continuous mixing and pumping solution, the Blastcrete MX-20CM offers a robust industrial configuration.
