Truck wash7/7/2023 The Load and Go Ready Mixed Truck Wash® completely eliminates the need for the driver to exit the cab to wash the mixer. The wash down process is statistically the most dangerous part of a mixer driver’s job. Most systems average 34 gallons of water during a 45 second cycle compared to a driver using a gallon every 1-2 seconds over 5-10 minutes: depending on flow rates, that could be anywhere from 150-600 gallons! By placing extreme high-pressure water directly to the point where it is needed we can now completely clean the mixer with far less water in much less time. Compare that to a normal plant washout station with a single high-volume, low-pressure hose using a gallon every 1-2 seconds for 5-10 minutes!This patented system is greatly reducing cycle times and increasing driver safety around the world. Utilizing up to 6 different wash stages, the Load and Go Ready Mixed Truck Wash® ensures that every part of your mixer (cab included if desired) is clean when the driver pulls through. ![]() The system’s PLC is triggered and controlled by the Interactive Mixer Position Recognition (IMPR), which relays truck position to the driver through an intuitive red/yellow/green signal light. Various types of nozzles are specifically designed and precisely aimed to remove cement dust and concrete build up from all areas of the roller pedestal including the drum, hopper, chutes, fenders and even the discharge blades in the drum. These amazing results are achieved by utilizing 72-88 high pressure nozzles to deliver 1,200 PSI water jets to the entire mixer. The Load and Go Ready Mixed Truck Wash® is an automated drive-through wash system that is highly specialized to thoroughly clean the entire mixer in 45-60 seconds, using around 35 gallons of water. Thoroughly cleans the mixer (45-60 seconds).Improves QC by tightly controlling the volume of wash down water entering the mix (5.5-6.5 gallons of water).Concrete producers of all stripes have proven this system makes sense for almost all ready-mix operations because it: Since 2008 we have been effectively cleaning mixers (both front and rear discharge) at wet and dry batch plants across the country. The system has been designed to completely replace the need for a mixer driver to exit the truck in order to wash down after the loading process. The Load and Go Ready Mixed Truck Wash® is the result of 30 years of industrial high-pressure wash experience. ![]()
