Mixer Truck: Drum-Control System Reduces Load on Engine

Schwing has added a new control system for the drums on its mixer trucks. The Schwing Control System  separates drum rotation from engine RPM, reducing overall drum revolutions. The SCT senses when material is added to the drum and adjusts rotation speed and engine RPM to an optimal load setting. Once the engine RPM reaches a certain level, the hydraulic pump goes to constant flow and stops drawing power from the engine. This process reduces load on the engine with only a slight drop in drum rotation speed. The lower rotation speed also extends the life of the drum. Schwing; www.schwing.com
