Unique in the field of self-loading concrete mixers, this very compact, agile and economical machine guarantees a yield of 4.0 m³ of concrete in every batch and a daily productivity of up to 95 to 105 m³. The DB 400 mixers are used as an alternative to small and medium batching plants. However, they have an advantage of extreme mobility, flexibility and autonomy. By equipping the DB 400 with the computerized (optional) FBC control system for concrete production process, it is possible to obtain the production of certified high quality concrete. Constancy, repeatability, and quality of the concrete batch are the unrivalled advantages of the FBC technology, exclusive to the FIORI GROUP’s self-loading concrete mixers.
 

Features

FIORI BATCH CONTROLLER
‣ FBC version – A computerized electronic batching system ensures accurate precise dosing
‣ 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
‣ Eliminates operators’ errors
‣ Consistent quality concrete even in demanding conditions

‣ Instantaneous and final checking system of the quality of concrete
QUALITY CONCRETE
‣ Improved homogenization, Reduced mixing times and greater quality of concrete - Because of
 - Special double truncated cone-shaped drum with convex bottom
 - Dual-screw mixing system
‣ Pressure sensor installed on the drum reduction gear detects the data required to check the expected slump.
ERGONIMOCS AND SAFETY
‣ ROPS/FOPS Cabin Equipped with heated closed cabin installed to the left of the vehicle by means of silent blocks
‣ Ergonomic controls – multifunction joystick to the right of the operator
