Hensel Ready Mix Promotes Front Discharge Concrete Conveyor

Monday, June 21st, 2010

Hensel Ready Mix is proudly promoting the Front Discharge Mixveyor from Atlas Polar. On the first page of their website and in the flyer included here in PDF form, the company boldly states that it has “the first and only Front Discharge Conveyor Ready Mix Truck in the United States.”

Hensel Ready Mix is based in Ohio, with four locations supplying ready mix to customers. It is a family-owned company that has been in business since 1963. Founded by Clarence Hensel, it is now operated by his son Rodney, company president. The third generation entered the business when Ben Hensel assumed the role of general manager.

In addition to supplying ready mix concrete with its fleet of trucks, the company also has a portable ready mix plant available for on-site work.

In their promotional materials, Hensel Ready Mix makes note of the many benefits of the Front Discharge Mixveyor: lower cost, versatility, flexibility, and easier access to hard-to-reach areas. They also talk about the remote control and the ease with which pouring can be controlled from the cab or the placement area.

Thanks to everyone at Hensel Ready Mix for their enthusiastic support of this truly innovative Atlas Polar product!

Shumaker Features Front Discharge Concrete Conveyor at Its Open House

Monday, May 3rd, 2010

Back in February we talked about the upcoming open house at Shumaker Industries, an Atlas Polar dealer in Pennsylvania. We knew that their decision to feature the Front Discharge Mixveyor would get attention, but we were thrilled to hear how much demand there was to see this product.

It turns out that local ready-mix producers couldn’t wait to see the new Mixveyor. When they heard that Shumaker Industries was installing the nation’s first Front Discharge Mixveyor, they began asking for a demo. So Shumaker decided to hold an open house.

The open house was held February 25 and 26, 2010. As the staff at Shumaker can tell you, the weather did not work in their favour. Despite the snow, local producers turned out in great numbers so they could see what the staff at Shumaker referred to as “the most innovative development in concrete placement since the front-discharge mixer.”

At the open house, guests were able to see the Front Discharge Mixveyor up close. Seeing it in action showed them how the conveyor would fit into their businesses.

The Mixveyor really got everyone talking and no wonder. It offers a unique set of features that cannot be found elsewhere, including: greater visibility and manoeuvrability; longer life from better cleaning and storage options; and standard Polar Remote Controls to make operation easier.

Shumaker Industries Showcases Front Discharge Mixveyor

Customers of Shumaker Industries in Northumberland, PA are invited to attend a very special open house on February 25 and 26 from noon until 6 PM.

The open house will introduce customers to the new Atlas Polar Front Discharge Mixveyor—currently the only front mounting system available for pouring concrete. This versatile piece of equipment allows for quick, efficient and safe pouring of ready mix.

Our front mounting ready mix conveyor offers an extended reach and allows operators to pour concrete in a 220º radius around the truck. With a single beam design, it is lighter but still allows for a delivery capacity of 78 cu. yards per hour. Operators can control the concrete conveyor from inside the cab, making it possible to maneuver around objects with ease and pour precisely from up to 36’ away.

For all of the details on our newest ready mix conveyor, visit the Front Discharge Conveyor page on our website.

At the Shumaker open house customers can speak with Atlas Polar technicians and learn more about these new Mixveyor front discharge conveyors and how they improve ready mix delivery. Visitors can also tour the Shumaker production facility and grab a burger.

Atlas Polar and Shumaker Industries Highlight Front Discharge Mixveyor Conveyor at 2010 World of Concrete

Thursday, December 3rd, 2009

If you are in the ready mix industry, you need to know about the new Front Discharge Mixveyor by Atlas Polar. It is the perfect example of innovation and ingenuity, and currently the only front mounting concrete conveyor belt system available.

As a front loading, single beam system, the Mixveyor is carefully designed for quick and easy operation and a long lifespan. Even the transport position of the Mixveyor is designed to minimize wear and tear of the equipment.

With a reach of 36 feet in a 220 degree sweep around the truck, the Front Discharge Mixveyor offers precision and versatility for pouring footings and walls. Our standard Polar radio controls make pouring easier and safer for the operator, who is free to move to a location with an unobstructed view. With such flexibility, this is the perfect piece of equipment for working around obstructions, uneven ground, and existing manmade objects.

Together with Shumaker Industries, we will be highlighting the Front Discharge Mixveyor at the upcoming World of Concrete show in Las Vegas. The show is being held from February 1st to 5th, 2010, at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Please drop by our booth N515 for a chat.

World of Concrete (WOC) is the only international event for the commercial concrete and masonry industries. As the show’s website states, WOC “showcases leading industry suppliers featuring innovative products”. The Front Discharge Mixveyor is certainly innovative, and we look forward to introducing it to WOC attendees. Hope to see you there!

New Video For Mixveyor MVHT5100

Mixveyor Concrete Conveyor MVHT5100

In previous posts I’ve talked a little about our new Front Discharge Mixveyor. Now it’s time to talk about the other great products in our Mixveyor Concrete Conveyor line-up.

For sheer flexibility and reach, the Mixveyor MVHT5100 model is the best choice. The conveyor extends up to 51 ft., includes a 13 ft. telescopic belt, and pours in a 300º radius around the truck, which means you can pour in virtually any direction from a long distance without having to move the truck. Precision Atlas Polar radio remote controls give you even more versatility when positioning the conveyor, and extendable outriggers increase stability.

While the Mixveyor 5100’s light weight makes it easy to release and maneuver, we have not sacrificed strength and durability. High-tensile steel increases the conveyor’s strength. Because of our innovative design, there is less wear and tear on the conveyor, belt and truck. The simplified hydraulic design also means lower maintenance.

After 25 years of making and distributing concrete conveyors, we have in-depth knowledge of what our customers want and the Mixveyor 5100 will exceed your needs. We now have a video clip of the Mixveyor in action, so you can see for yourself its versatility and excellent design.

New Front Discharge Mixveyor: Innovative Technology Making Short Work of Long Reaches

Friday, December 19th, 2008

Mixveyor Front Discharge Conveyor

If your ready mix business is looking for an economical way of streamlining your operations (and what business isn’t in this economy), it is a safe bet that you will want to take a look at the new Front Discharge Mixveyor conveyor.

So what makes the Mixveyor so great? Well, to begin with, it is unique because it is the only concrete conveyor belt system that mounts to the front end of a mixer. It also features a “Single Beam Design” that utilizes tubular construction and hi-tensile steel to increase strength and reduce the overall conveyor weight. Another great feature of the Mixveyor’s superior design is that it is compactly stored in an optimal position to seriously reduce the typical wear and tear that conveyor systems face when not in use. Oh, and let’s not forget the Polar radio remote control operation!

Of course this is just the beginning of the features and benefits of owning an operating a Mixveyor. Check out our website for more information on our new Front Discharge Mixveyor conveyor.
