Reaching targets using their own strength Achieve more in pouring concrete with stationary booms If you want to reach the top, you have to work your way up. This is best achieved with a stable base, at which one can grow gradually. A little support does no harm making the way to the top that little bit easier. An intelligent solution has finally been created from the interaction of all factors. According to this principle, MX stationary booms are designed in the modular system by Putzmeister to reach unknown heights for the challenges in construction. Buildings are becoming higher and higher...

MX stationary booms offer development possibilities The areas of application of stationary booms are very diverse. They are used just as efficiently during the construction of power plants, caverns, liquid gas tanks and bridges, as well as in the most diverse construction site situations in structural engineering. With their flexible attachment points they are suitable for the integration of climbing formworks, independent climbing, as well as for freestanding installations. For instance, they have been involved in some first-class construction work: During the construction of the liquid gas...

Testing and finding the right balance The MX system – optimal ratio of set-up time and performance The comprehensive, modular range of MX stationary booms makes available horizontal reaches between 24 and 50 m on the Putzmeister tubular column system RS 850 or on lattice towers from the wellknown manufacturer. Arms which can be moved from the truck-mounted concrete pump to the tubular column and from there to the next tubular column in minimal time thanks to the rapid disconnection systems not only provide massive scope in the height, but also in the area. Furthermore, the technological factor...

This is how it looks in practice In the initial phase of the shell construction, the placing boom mounted on a tubular column is used as a freestanding boom to concrete the base and first floor. The column moves with help of the climbing facility through ceilings and shafts to the next storey to be constructed. Equipped with a rapid disconnection system, the adjustable arms can be moved quickly and smoothly on large construction sites from one tubular column to the next according to the installation planning. Overview of MX booms Type Rectangular tubular column Lattice tower Number of arms, fold...

Placing booms – More available space in an instant Placing concrete accurately by remote control Where space is tight, the amazingly direct response characteristics of the optimised boom control and the lightweight design ensure precise and comfortable work with the remote control via cable or radio (optional). The minimal boom vibrations also in the case of high delivery rates facilitate the placing of the concrete and guarantee a high degree of safety. The laying of the delivery lines and the development of the steel structure taking into consideration the arising forces, which have an effect...

Systematic design Competent team work for all applications There is not one boom for all applications, because the requirements of the applications are too different. There are, however, requirements for all booms and these are high: Maximum quality, flexibility, robustness and efficiency. These are the minimum requirements which all products from Putzmeister satisfy. Here you can see the components of our clever MX modular system in its simplest and clearest form. An overview is provided on the following pages. Placing boom Multi disconnection point Boom pedestal Tubular column Lattice tower

The lattice tower system – grow on a stable base The system for the (sometimes) decisive difference MX stationary booms can also be mounted on crane lattice towers from the well-known manufacturer*. This system is primarily used where a project requires a horizontal reach between 36 m and 50 m. This is why they can be mainly seen on large construction sites, for example during the construction of dams, power plants and liquid gas tanks or for protruding construction sites such as during the construction of underground / tram railways and underground/tram railway stations. * Technical clarification...

With a system for the successful implementation The competent and consistent planning is a decisive success factor, particularly for large building projects. Putzmeister engineers compile a precise layout plan in close cooperation with all those involved in the project. The requirement of machines and devices as well as the procedure, can be calculated and prepared precisely in advance. Depending on the area to be concreted and the volume of concrete to be poured. The locations of large booms, among other things, are planned taking into account the maximum horizontal and vertical reach. The order...
