Finding the right refractory equipment supplier is important when installation projects require consistent material mixing, reliable pumping, and high production capacity. The Blastcrete MX-20CM Mixer/Pump combines a high-shear continuous mixer with a powerful swing-tube piston pump in one mobile system, making it suitable for refractory placement and shotcrete applications.

A High-Capacity Solution for Refractory Installation
The MX-20CM is designed to handle both smaller refractory projects and high-volume applications. Its rated output ranges from approximately 2–3 tons per hour for smaller installations up to 25 tons per hour for high-production work.
At the heart of the system is a compact, two-stage mixing arrangement. The primary high-shear continuous mixer hydrates the material, while a medium-shear secondary mixer is positioned in the receiving hopper of the 4-inch high-pressure swing-tube pump.
This configuration helps provide continuous material processing while reducing handling, cleanup time, and material waste.
MX-20CM High-Shear Continuous Mixer
For contractors evaluating a refractory machinery company, mixer performance is a major consideration. The MX-20CM incorporates a high-shear continuous mixer with a rated output of up to 25 tons per hour.
The two-stage design provides several operational advantages:
Continuous material mixing and hydration
High production capacity
Reduced dust during mixer charging
Faster mixer cleanup
Reduced material waste
Integrated transfer to the receiving hopper
The receiving hopper also incorporates a hydraulic agitator to help maintain consistent material movement toward the pump.
Powerful Swing-Tube Pump
The MX-20CM uses a 4-inch x 36-inch ultra-high-pressure swing-tube piston pump. The pump has a rated piston face pressure of 2,200 PSI, providing the pressure capability required for demanding refractory pump cast and shotcrete applications.
Oversized differential cylinders allow the pump to operate with comparatively lower hydraulic pressure while maintaining high discharge pressure. The result is a system designed around high-pressure material placement without requiring excessive hydraulic operating pressure.
Designed for High-Volume Applications
The pump and mixer are both rated from 0 to 25 tons per hour, allowing the MX-20CM to accommodate different project requirements.
This flexibility makes the machine appropriate for contractors working across applications such as:
Refractory installation
Refractory pump casting
Industrial maintenance
Furnace and high-temperature equipment repair
Shotcrete applications
High-volume refractory placement
Actual production depends on material characteristics, mix design, conveying distance, hose configuration, and jobsite conditions.
Easy Maintenance and Service Access
Downtime can affect productivity on industrial installation projects. The MX-20CM incorporates a swing-out receiving hopper that provides easier access to the swing-tube section for cleaning and maintenance.
Additional practical features include forklift tubing mounted to the lower hopper for flat-pack removal and a four-point crane pickup that does not require a spreader bar.
Trailer-Mounted and Mobile
The MX-20CM is configured as a mobile trailer-mounted system with dual 6,000-pound-capacity axles, electric braking, and lighting.
Its listed towing weight is 7,500 pounds, and the manufacturer states that no special license is needed to tow the machine. CE certification is also listed among its features.
For contractors comparing a refractory equipment supplier or refractory machinery company, portability can be an important consideration when the same equipment needs to move between multiple industrial projects.

Choosing the Right Refractory Machinery Company
When evaluating a refractory equipment supplier, buyers should consider more than mixer capacity alone. Pump pressure, material throughput, maintenance accessibility, mobility, power configuration, and available options can all influence equipment suitability.
The MX-20CM brings these functions together in a single mixer/pump platform, with a high-shear continuous mixer feeding a high-pressure 4-inch swing-tube pump. Its 0–25 tons-per-hour rated capacity makes it particularly suited to projects where both flexibility and high production capability are important.
