The CTS-5 twin shaft concrete mixer represents CONSTMACH's commitment to delivering industrial-grade mixing solutions for high-demand concrete production environments. This model combines proven engineering principles with practical features designed specifically for operations requiring consistent output quality and reliable performance. With a compacted concrete volume of 5 cubic meters per batch, the CTS-5 addresses the production needs of ready-mix plants, precast facilities, and specialized applications where thorough material blending is non-negotiable.
What sets this mixer apart is its dual-shaft configuration, where two synchronized mixing arms work in opposite directions to create a powerful spiral motion. This design ensures that aggregates, cement, and water don't just tumble together but are actively forced into contact with each other. The mixing arms throw material from both sides toward the center, where the components collide and combine. Water enters the mix through high-pressure jets rather than simply being poured on top, which means it penetrates the dry materials immediately. This approach allows the cement slurry to coat every aggregate particle uniformly, creating a homogeneous mix that translates directly into stronger concrete with better structural properties.
The CTS-5 handles a charging volume of 7,500 liters and produces 6,250 liters of fresh concrete, compacting down to the 5,000-liter final volume. It's powered by two 90-kilowatt motors that drive the twin shafts with enough force to maintain mixing speed even when processing dense or heavy aggregate combinations. Speed matters in concrete production because every minute saved per batch multiplies across hundreds of daily cycles, and the CTS-5 delivers fast mixing times without compromising blend quality.
Durability is built into every contact surface. The side body features 25mm Ni-Hard wearing plates, while the main body and mixing arms are protected by 30mm Ni-Hard plates. These hardened steel surfaces resist the constant abrasion that comes from processing tons of sharp aggregate day after day. An automatic lubrication system keeps bearings and moving parts properly maintained without requiring manual intervention, reducing downtime and extending component life. The hydraulic discharge door operates smoothly under load, and a maintenance door safety switch prevents accidental operation during servicing, addressing practical safety concerns that arise in busy production environments.
CONSTMACH designs its twin shaft mixers to fit into compact footprints while maintaining the internal volume needed for commercial-scale production. This balance between size and capacity makes the equipment suitable for sites with space constraints or operations that need to maximize output per square meter of floor space. The mixer works effectively in block production lines, paver manufacturing setups, and demanding applications like dam construction where concrete quality cannot be compromised. Whether you're running a high-volume ready-mix operation or a specialized precast facility, the CTS-5 provides the mixing performance and operational reliability that keeps production schedules on track. The combination of proven mechanical design, wear-resistant materials, and practical automation features makes it a solid choice for operations that measure success in consistent quality and uptime.
