What Is the Blastcrete MasonMate?
The Blastcrete MasonMate is labor-saving construction equipment designed for high-rise block fill applications. It integrates material loading, continuous mixing, and hydraulic pumping to help contractors streamline concrete masonry filling operations.
One of its key features is the 1,000 lb. capacity bulk bag lifter, which helps simplify bulk material loading and reduce manual handling. Combined with a high-shear continuous mixer and a 2-inch D3522 hydraulic squeeze pump, the machine supports an integrated approach to material preparation and placement.
The specified configuration operates with a 35 HP Briggs & Stratton gasoline engine. Additional power options include a Kubota water-cooled diesel engine and a 30 HP electric motor with starter and disconnect.
The MasonMate is designed to fit inside a freight elevator or be positioned using a telescoping forklift or crane. Its pallet-jack mobility and ability to operate under ceilings as low as 8 feet make it suitable for many high-rise construction environments.
Why Bulk Bag Lifter Concrete Equipment Matters
Bulk material handling is an important consideration on commercial and high-rise construction projects. Manually moving heavy bags can increase labor requirements, slow material delivery, and create additional handling challenges.
The Blastcrete MasonMate combines bulk bag lifting with mixing and pumping capabilities to help simplify these operations.
1. Simplify Bulk Material Loading
The MasonMate's 1,000 lb. capacity bulk bag lifter helps contractors load bulk materials more efficiently. By incorporating bag lifting into the machine, the system helps reduce the need for manual material handling during the block filling process.
This integrated approach can support a more organized workflow and help construction crews manage material loading more effectively.
2. Reduce Labor Requirements by Up to 75%
Traditional CMU block filling often relies on bucket brigades to transport material across the job site. These labor-intensive processes can increase staffing requirements and consume valuable construction time.
The Blastcrete MasonMate is designed to eliminate CMU block fill bucket brigades and can reduce on-the-job labor by up to 75%. This can help contractors allocate workers more efficiently and improve overall job-site productivity.
3. Combine Mixing and Pumping in One System
In addition to bulk bag lifting, the MasonMate includes a high-shear continuous mixer and a D3522 hydraulic squeeze pump.
The mixer supports continuous material preparation, while the pump delivers material for block filling. With a rated output range of 0–6 cubic yards per hour, the system provides contractors with a dedicated solution for high-rise block fill applications.
Actual output depends on material properties, operating conditions, and project requirements.
4. Help Reduce Dust from Manual Handling
Manual bulk material handling can generate dust during loading and transfer. By integrating bulk bag lifting with the mixing and pumping process, the MasonMate is designed to help reduce dust associated with conventional handling methods.
Reducing manual handling can also help improve job-site organization and limit unnecessary movement of materials.
5. Improve Access on High-Rise Construction Sites
Transporting construction equipment between floors can be challenging when space is limited. The MasonMate is designed to fit within a freight elevator and can also be placed using a telescoping forklift or crane.
Its pallet-jack mobility and compact dimensions help simplify positioning in suitable work areas, while its low-clearance design supports operation in spaces with ceilings as low as 8 feet.
