Wet‑Mix Shotcrete Spraying Manipulator
Product Introduction
This wet‑mix shotcrete spraying manipulator is a specialized underground construction robot for rock support work. It pumps ready‑mixed wet concrete and sprays evenly onto tunnel and mine rock surfaces to form protective concrete lining, preventing rock‑fall and collapse risk.
Three complete product ranges: compact AWT20, medium‑duty AWT3016F, heavy‑duty AWT4016N. It adopts two‑stage telescopic & multi‑slewing spraying boom, full‑wireless proportional remote‑control operation. Operators stay away from dangerous working face to improve site safety. Automatic accelerator dosing system matches concrete flow accurately to reduce rebound rate and guarantee spraying quality. Heavy‑duty 4‑wheel‑drive, 4‑wheel‑steer engineering chassis supports crab‑walking mode for uneven tunnel floors. Multiple certification documents including CE, ISO, SGS are available. Engine emission, boom parameters and chassis can be customized for global projects.

Core Advantages
- Wireless remote‑control: Operate far away from dangerous tunnel working face to improve operator safety.
- Full‑range boom coverage: Two‑stage telescopic & multi‑angle slewing boom, no blind spraying spots for wall, vault and invert arch.
- Automatic accelerator dosing: Proportional automatic additive supply reduces concrete rebound, improves shotcrete layer quality.
- Strong off‑road chassis: 4‑wheel‑drive & 4‑wheel‑steer with crab‑walking function, adapts uneven tunnel‑floor conditions.
- Large‑volume dual accelerator tank: Supports long‑time continuous construction without frequent refilling.
- Easy maintenance: Modular pump, hydraulic and electrical assemblies for fast field repair.
Application Scenarios
- Underground Mining: Metal & non‑metal underground mine primary rock support.
- Tunnel Engineering: Hydropower diversion tunnels, highway & railway tunnels, culvert support, invert‑arch construction.
- Slope protection: Outdoor high‑slope shotcrete reinforcement project.
- Global market fit: Well‑suited for tunnel & mine contractors in Africa, Latin America, Southeast Asia. For Australia and Canada, local safety & emission certifications must be completed before deployment, mainly for small‑scale private underground mining projects.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What kind of concrete can this machine spray?
A1: Designed for wet‑mix concrete. Compatible with steel‑fiber / polypropylene‑fiber reinforced concrete (fiber length ≤20‑30 mm). Not for dry‑mix concrete.
Q2: What supporting air compressor do I need?
A2: Recommended air compressor: air flow 9‑15 m³/min, working pressure 0.5‑0.7 MPa for normal spraying performance.
Q3: What is the warranty term?
A3: 12‑month warranty after equipment start‑up, or 18‑month after shipment date, whichever comes first. Consumable wear‑parts are excluded from warranty.
Q4: Can you do OEM / custom modification?
A4: Yes. Engine emission standard, boom stroke, chassis configuration, explosion‑proof electrical system for gas‑mine can be customized.
Q5: How long is production lead‑time?
A5: Production lead‑time is around 3‑6 months for shotcrete manipulator, subject to order schedule.
Q6: Is operator training provided?
A6: We supply operation manual and technical documents. Overseas on‑site training service can be arranged upon request.
Q7: Which payment terms are acceptable?
A7: T/T, L/C at sight are acceptable. Normally 30% deposit after contract signing, balance before shipment.
