SPM 500 Wetkret
Proven Efficiency and Reliability in a large Number of Tunneling Projects all over the World
Overview
Built for the way Texas crews work
With a vertical spraying reach of 55' 9" (17 m) and an output of 39 yd3/h (30 m3/h), the SPM 500 WETKRET is ideal for medium and large tunnels, caverns and slopes. The automatic system for high precision synchronization between the concrete pump and the additive dosing unit maintains the additive dosage proportional to the output, assuring spraying accuracy and quality. All functions are available via remote control. The sturdy chassis with 4-wheel-drive and crab-mode provides maneuverability in difficult driving situations.
The standard version of the SPM 500 WETKRET series is operated electrically and includes an electric air compressor built into the chassis. The equipment is also optionally available with a diesel drive system, allowing operation in places without electrical power supply

Far reaching: spraying arm providing 55' 9" (17 m) spraying reach
Automatic additive dosage: automatic dosing device proportional to the concrete flow, ensuring spraying accuracy and quality
All functions available via remote control: automatic spraying sequence start and stop functions, full regulation of the concrete output
Easy handling: thanks to the automatic spray lance movements and nozzle oscillation
Advanced maneuverability: compact dimensions, four driving and steering wheels
Spraying arm can be unfolded in minimum space thanks to movable and telescopic construction
