How ReadyJet Works?

REMOTE CONTROLLED
ROBOTIC LANCE

Safety is priceless. We realized keeping the mixed drums clean on the inside without entering the drum has always been a challenge.

The mixer truck is reversed into the workshop with the aid of a banksman.

The telescopic boom is inserted.

The drum rotates at a 1rpm charge rate.  The jet oscillates as the boom retreats along the length of the drum.

Here is a simplified animation: Link. The operator can chose to pivot the torpedo section so that the jet is closer to the skin of the drum.

THE CONCRETE DROPS AWAY

Stop carrying unnecessary extra weight and start saving on fuel today.

• Clear build-up when it exceeds 250kg
  Concrete is blasted by a 20,000psi oscillating water jet
  (To cut steel requires >50,000psi)
  Clean the drum in a timely manner, ideally when the truck tare has increased by
  ¼ tonne. The Readyjet works by blasting a gap between the blade and the hardened concrete. The concrete then drops away.
• Blade-to-blade build-up can result in the concrete becoming a structure, holding its form until snapping, occasionally into large lumps. This can be very dangerous if doing the work manually and may cause dents in the drum.
  Blades with a greater pitch (say 1200mm instead of 800mm) can result in larger lumps.
  Avoid heavy build up as it requires a disproportionately longer time and greater expense to remove and can result in large lumps.
  Avoid heavy build-up in light-weight drums (3mm drums or thinner).

DRUM AFTER THE PROCESS

The ReadyJet system revolutionizes truck mixer drum cleaning by offering a safer, faster alternative to manual methods. This patented solution can remove up to 500kg of hardened build-up in about 45 minutes—a task that manually could take days. Key benefits of the ReadyJet include:

1. Safety: Eliminates the dangers associated with manual cleaning, such as confined space entry and the use of impact tools, by operating externally.
2. Efficiency: Drastically cuts down cleaning time, reducing truck downtime and increasing operational productivity.
3. No Manual Entry: Avoids the need for workers to physically enter drums, reducing safety risks and physical labor.

ReadyJet’s integration into the construction sector emphasizes the shift towards safer, more efficient operational practices, aligning with contemporary safety standards and productivity objectives.
