The DB 260 is a self-loading concrete mixer with a max yield of 2.5 m³ per batch and a daily productivity of up to 60 to 70 m³. It is characterized by excellent visibility from the cabin & ergonimocs of the operator's position resulting from the driver's seat reversibility & the drum rotation system. The automatic water dosing, tip-off function, the shape & position of the drum which optimizes the dosage & mixing operations ensures concrete homogeneity. The computerized (optional) CBV 2.0 is an innovative production process that allows the operator to minimize error, guaranteeing consistency, repeatability and quality of the concrete even in the most difficult conditions.

Features
PERFORMANCE AND HANDLING
‣ Unparalleled agility and stability; even in loaded condition due to lower center of gravity
‣ Four-wheel drive & steering
‣ Reversible driving seat & 245° drum rotation
‣ High pressure automotive hydrostatic transmission for working on any kind of terrain
CONCRETE BATCHING VEHICLE
‣ CBV version – A computerized electronic batching system ensures accurate precise dosing
‣ Fully integrated and interactive system, guides the operator right from entering the mix design, precise dosing, controlling the mixing time and ensuring homegenity of the final product.
‣ Multiple recipes can be saved
‣ Humidity percentage can be input and the system automatically adjusts the water inflow thus maintaining the water cement ratio.
‣ Batch report printed for every batch of concrete produced
‣ Final check of the quality of concrete produced
COMFORT AND VISIBILITY
‣ Patented drum rotation feature combining the reversible driving allows full control over the mix directly from the cabin
‣ The 245° drum rotation, in fact, ensures complete visibility thus allowing the operator to check the consistency of the mix from the cabin
‣ Equipped with a standard ground control panel (always available to the operator) to manage, program and control water input into the drum, as well as the mixing/unloading functions and the activation of the hydraulic device for chute lifting/lowering
ERGONOMICS AND SAFETY
‣ Closed cabin installed
‣ Ergonomic controls – multifunction joystick to the right of the operator
‣ Level 1 ROPS FOPS cabin - (Level 2 available as option)
LOADING SYSTEM AND TIP-OFF
‣ Loading arm driven by Z-shaped auto-compensated kinematic mechanism with two lifting cylinders and two double acting loader cylinders
‣ Tip-off function to shed excess material before weighing and pouring in the drum
‣ Automatic unloading hatch - prevents any losses by avoiding spilling of materials
