The optional split feed boot it provides a vertically split hopper plate that allows two different types of material to be fed simultaneously into the hopper. The manual adjustable dual hopper doors aid regulation of the material from each side of the split bins in the hopper.

The hopper has a large transfer point opening for maximum throughput, spring tension face scraper to clear the feeder belt, and twin internal planetary drive motors as standard to ensure high torque for the required output of the feeder belt.

The Tele-Mix® Pugmill incorporates a twin shaft-mixing chamber with spray bars and discharge chute as standard, thus ensuring a consistent mix for a variety of applications where all types of binders or neutralising products are required in the mixing process including road construction, paving, ground works/ civil engineering, environmentally-sensitive stabilisation projects, aggregate recycling and general construction and recycling industries.

A key pre-requisite of the Tele-Mix® P 2000 T was the ability to transport and set-up easily. The unit is designed with a range of engine options depending on local emissions regulations and fully integrated hydraulic power pack.  The unique Patent Pending “tuck away” hydraulically folding mechanism allows the Pugmill mixing chamber to be retracted in underneath the incline boom minimising transport length whilst also ensuring a quick, safe and simply set up on site.

The fully automated option includes the following features:

Upgraded Panel with PLC Control – the upgraded Panel withPLC Control which allows the operator to set and adjust the percentages of cement and water to be added to the mix. It features a user friendly touch screen HMI and Settings can be adjusted in increments of 0.5%. 

Cement Silo – 2 m³ Cement silo featuring pressure relief valve, dust filter load cells and hydraulically driven rotary valve, linked to the PLC which adjusts the flow of cement into the pugmill. The hopper is designed with steep circular taper to prevent rat holing or bridging of cement. A galvanised access platform with either vertical ladder or steps, allows the operator to safely maintain and inspect the cement silo.
