In the competitive landscape of South African construction and mining, the quality of your mix determines the strength of your reputation. Whether you are producing high-volume paving blocks in Gauteng or managing backfill operations in a deep-level mine, the reliability of your machinery is paramount. Quadra South Africa is proud to partner with Sicoma, a global leader in mixing technology, to bring world-class engineering to local soil.
Here is how Sicoma’s specialised range is transforming production nationwide.
The MP Planetary Mixer: Precision for Precast, Concrete, Pavers and Bricks
For the South African brick, block, and paving industry, consistency in colour and texture is a non-negotiable requirement. The Sicoma MP Planetary Mixer is engineered for this exact purpose.
With a gearbox designed to be virtually indestructible and a 5-year warranty, these mixers handle the rigorous demands of precast production with ease. The planetary mixing action—combined with Ni-hard iron blades—ensures a perfect cleanout between batches. This is critical for local manufacturers switching between pigmented concrete for designer pavers and standard grey blocks, ensuring zero cross-contamination and maximum yield.
The MT Turbine Mixer: Reliability for Readymix
The Sicoma MT Turbine Mixer remains a staple for South African readymix providers. Its split-tank design is a logistical game-changer; it can be shipped in standard containers and easily assembled at remote jobsites or rural projects. To combat the abrasive nature of local aggregates, the mixing arms are equipped with a spring shock-absorber system. This protects the gearbox from sudden impacts, significantly reducing downtime and maintenance costs in harsh environments.
The MAO Twin Shaft Mixer: Powering South African Mining
When it comes to high-capacity requirements like Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) for dam projects or soil stabilisation in mining, the MAO Twin Shaft Mixer is the industry powerhouse.
In the mining sector, efficiency is measured by uptime. The MAO features a patented modular support and seal system with automated lubrication, preventing the ingress of dust and slurry. For continuous high-volume needs, the MAO/C (Continuous Mixer) is the ideal solution for backfill applications, offering a rigid tank design that stands up to the heaviest loads.
