Underground Concrete Machinery

CONCRETE SUPPLY EXPERTISE IN UNDERGROUND SITES As one of the leading world players in the construction equipment industry with 90 years of history, CIFA has been designing, producing and distributing innovation in the construction field, with a complete range of products for the production, transportation, and laying of concrete. Thanks to its record-long experience in underground job sites, CIFA has developed a comprehensive range of machines dedicated to every phase of the concrete supply chain in this demanding environment often requiring the highest level of service 24 hours a day, 7...

SHOTCRETE MAMBA MINING MIXER COGUARO 4 SHOTCRETE DINGO TRAIN MIXER MYRIA SHOTCRETE RHINO SHOTCRETE BOOM MANTIS

ELK BIG SPACE, GREAT VERSATILITY The ELK is the latest evolution of the CIFA CSS-series of concrete spraying equipment. Its key distinguishing features are the possibility of spraying concrete both with diesel and electric power, its overall compactness in driving configuration and the great versatility offered by its boom in terms of reachable area. BOOM Thanks to the three-section, “Z” - folding concept, the ELK boom gives the flexibility to operate in a versatile, safe manner in any kind of tunnel. The boom turret has a double slewing ring for horizontal and vertical boom rotation and...

CSSE: THE FIRST PLUG-IN ELECTRIC MOBILE SHOTCRETE MACHINE CHANGE THE RULES: FULL ELECTRIC SYSTEMS. Traditional underground vehicles adopt diesel engines combined with hydrostatic transmission in the driving mode. CIFA redefines conventional hydraulic systems: now they are supported by high-efficiency electrical devices. The electronic system, with software fully developed by CIFA Engineering, is responsible for managing all functions to maximize machine. Many functions that are usually mechanically managed become electric in CSSE. This helps simplify the whole system, to reduce maintenance...

THE MAMBA ANOTHER CIFA SPRAYING SPECIALIST The MAMBA is the concrete spraying equipment ideal for all type of underground jobsite and great for large tunnels is very easy to use and maneuverable. As per other shotcrete machines models from CIFA, the MAMBA is both Diesel and Electric powered. This grants the operational continuity in all condition but with particular attention to reduce carbon footprint and improve the working environment. STEERING MODES CHASSIS The Mamba truck is an off-road vehicle with hydrostatic transmission. It features four-wheel drive (4WD) four-wheel steering (4WS)...

BOOM The two section boom with telescopic extensions has a maximum vertical reach of 18 m, 14 m horizontally, and is able to be fully unfolded in an area of only 4 m, this is a big game changer among the industry making this model suitable both for very narrow spaces and for large job-sites. The Boom has been designed to be controlled by a 2 joystick radio remote control in an intuitive yet precise way. The turret has a slewing ring with a rotation angle of ± 180° and can slide along an integrated rail to move the boom of around 3000 mm making much more simple to place the machine in the...

STEERING RADIUS CST 8.20 SMALL SPACE BIG PERFORMANCE The CST 8.20 is a concrete spraying machine installed on a compact articulated chassis capable of very tight maneuvering in hard-toreach job sites. BOOM Designed and manufactured for mining and for small tunnels. Robust and versatile at the same time, and extremely precise on nozzle placement. The boom has a vertical reach of 10 meters. Thanks the vertical slewing ring, the operator is able to follow the entire profile of the tunnel, at every height, with only one joystick movement on the proportional radio remote control. CHASSIS The CST...

DINGO AGILE AND TOUGH The Dingo is a compact, powerful and intelligent machine dedicated to mining and small tunnels. It has an open transverse ROPS/FOPS driver’s seat, a wheelbase of only 2.2 meters and a height of 2.5 meters. It offers the useful feature of driving while keeping the distribution boom within the profile of the machine by rotating it on the right side. STEERING MODES Crab steering BOOM Designed and manufactured for mining and for small tunnels. Robust and versatile at the same time, and extremely precise on nozzle placement. The boom rotates on the vertical axis and has a...

RHINO: STRENGTH IN A COMPACT SHAPE RHINO is a double piston pump with S-valve and variable output for shotcrete, micro-concrete, and special concrete. RHINO is a reliable choice in tight jobsites. The trailer-built concrete spraying pump is designed for mechanized applications of wet shotcrete in combination with the MANTIS or for manual applications with a spraying nozzle. APPLICATIONS Shotcrete works Concrete, grouts, structural mortars, refractory mortars Self-levelling floor screeds Land reinforcement Micro-piles, pressurized injection of mortars and cementitious slurries Compaction...

DOSING SYSTEM CIFA ACCELERATOR DOSING SYSTEM UNIFLUX H1.0 The UNIFLUX H1.0 admixture dosing system uses a peristaltic pump driven by a hydraulic motor and managed by an electronic controller allowing to dose any type of admixture or setting accelerator to the actual concrete flow rate with maximum precision. Manual flow adjustment is also possible. The data setting in the system is regulated by a display on the control panel.

PUMPING UNITS The pumping units employed are specifically designed for shotcrete applications. The number of cycles per minute is optimized to reduce wear and vibrations. The S-valve is made of wear-resistant cast iron. The self-compensating wear ring and wear plate extend INLET HOPPER the machine lifetime, avoiding S-valve blockages often caused by metallic or composite fibers in the shotcrete mix. The hydraulic double-circuit ensures fast and precise S-valve swinging andoptimal concrete flow uniformity. SUCTION STROKE HYDRAULIC CYLINDER PUMP STROKE
