A hand-operated concrete placement boom is an essential piece of equipment for achieving precise and efficient concrete placement in areas without access to power or on smaller-scale projects. Unlike its fully hydraulic counterparts, this manual boom uses human power for articulation and movement, offering unparalleled flexibility and cost-effectiveness.
Product Description
The Atlas Manual-Placer 360™ redefines versatility and control in concrete placement. Engineered for durability and simplicity, this boom empowers your crew to tackle a wide array of pouring challenges without relying on external power sources.
Key Features & Benefits:
Fully Manual Operation: No hydraulic power pack or electricity is required. The boom is operated via easy-to-use hand cranks and levers, making it perfect for remote job sites or projects with limited infrastructure.
Unmatched 360-Degree Rotation: Our patented rotation system allows the boom to swing a full 360 degrees, providing complete coverage around the mounting point and eliminating blind spots.
Exceptional Reach & Articulation: Featuring three articulated sections, the boom provides a precise reach of up to 10 meters (33 feet), allowing you to navigate over obstacles and place concrete directly into the toughest-to-reach formwork.
Robust Steel Construction: Built from high-tensile, lightweight steel, the boom offers an optimal strength-to-weight ratio. It is resistant to deformation and built to withstand the harsh conditions of a construction site.
Quick-Mount System: Easily attaches to the discharge chute of any standard volumetric mixer, transit mixer truck, or concrete pump. Setup and disassembly are fast, minimizing downtime between jobs.
Reduced Labor & Material Waste: Place concrete with pinpoint accuracy, minimizing over-pour and spillage. This leads to significant savings on material costs and reduces the physical strain on workers who would otherwise move concrete with wheelbarrows.
Minimal Maintenance: With no complex hydraulics or electronics, the Manual-Placer 360™ requires very little maintenance. Simple greasing points and readily available mechanical parts ensure long service life and low operating costs.
