The new self-loading Carmix 45 EVO concrete mixer is the innovation of the Venetian manufacturer for 2023 with a new cab, new control functions and a brand new Perkins Stage V engine

Carmix expands its range of off-road self-loading concrete mixers with a new entry: the Carmix 45 EVO, powered by Perkins 904J-E36TA Stage V engine and capable of guaranteeing 120 HP (90 kW). The production of 6,050-litre drum is rich and guarantees 4.5 m³ concrete, while the loading shovel has a capacity of 600 litres. It is a compact off-road mixer, evident to use and with low maintenance costs for producing concrete on small and medium-sized construction sites. The user-friendly driving system, the compact dimensions and the 4x4 steering four-wheel drive allow in fact to move even in small places and to travel easily on rough and uneven roads.

English engine, German transmission

The important innovation concerns the new 90 kW Perkins 904J-E36TA Stage V engine, optimized in terms of consumption and adaptation to the operating cycles of a wide range of applications. For the hydrostatic transmission and drum rotation, Carmix opted for Bosch-Rexroth equipment with two variable displacement axial pumps. The machine is also equipped with two Bosch-Rexroth gear pumps for the two joystick distributors of the loader and services.

Brand new cabin

Compared to the other models, the new Carmix 45 EVO features a new and restyled control panel in ABS material, with a dedicated Joystick to control the loader and a large display to view the loading phases. Thanks to the reversible station with automatic circuit inversion, the operator can drive and control the vehicle both from the front and from the rear.

Concretes accurate to the gram

In the Carmix 45 EVO the control and monitoring tools are of great importance: the new concrete mixer is in fact equipped with the Mix Made system which allows to dose, weigh and program any material to create a perfect mix-design on site. The direct control of the elements right where the mixing takes place (including the real weight of the water for an optimization of the w/c ratio) guarantees greater precision and a reject below 3% of the weight as in the most sophisticated concrete plants without counting real verifiability of the finished product.
