CIFA’s MK-24 concrete pump has a detachable pumping system with rotor
2203 CIFA will introduce a new pump that has been tailored to the needs of the French market.

The new MK-24 concrete pump has a detachable pumping system with rotor. It is equipped with a three-section distribution boom with a Z-fold system and 100mm pipes. 

As the pumping unit is detachable, the rotor can be unhooked to increase the concrete load in the drum. This has been developed to suit the needs of French customers wanting to use a peristaltic pump rather than a traditional piston pump during pumping phases.

In addition, the concrete pump with rotor has been designed for ease and speed of cleaning and to prevent excessive waste of material. CIFA said that the MK-24 with rotor, which can be mounted on a four-axle chassis, is also easy to position and so is suited to working on cramped sites such as restoration projects in city centres.
