Turbosol Transmat 250

The Transmat 250 is a mixing and conveying machine for levelling compound, mortar, concrete and aggregates. It is powered by a three-phase electric motor rated at 5.5 kW (400 V / 50 Hz) and works together with a site compressor that must deliver at least 3 600 l/min at 6 bar (Turbosol specifies 3 600–5 000 l/min). The material is mixed in a 270-litre pressure vessel and conveyed onwards by compressed air. The machine is supplied in three versions: E with a large hopper for manual filling, EB with a 270-litre hydraulic loading bucket, and EBP with both bucket and cable-operated drag scraper. An ET-SILO version for connection to a silo is also available on request.

Each cycle produces 200–220 litres of finished mix. The number of cycles per hour depends on the version: 12–15 on the E, 18–20 on the EB, 18–22 on the EBP and 20–25 on the ET-SILO. The conveying distance is stated as 120 metres and the conveying height as 80 metres, but Turbosol points out that the two figures cannot be achieved at the same time. The maximum aggregate size depends on the hose size: 20 mm with the standard Ø 65 mm hose, 12 mm with Ø 50 mm and 30 mm with Ø 90 mm. The filling height is 95 cm on the E model and 36 cm on the models with loading bucket.

Applications include mixes with little cement or water, insulating screeds based on expanded clay, polystyrene, perlite, vermiculite or cork, all types of aggregate such as sand and gravel, as well as masonry mortar and concrete with aggregate sizes up to 30 mm. The machine is operated from a simple electrical control panel, and the pneumatic system has control levers and a pressure gauge. The pressure vessel has a protective grille with a safety lock that stops the mixer automatically when the grille is opened. A large motor cover gives access to the internal components, and the undercarriage has an articulated drawbar. Turbosol emphasises that the design and inclination of the mixing elements produce even mixes with only 5.5 kW.
