What Is the Blastcrete MasonMate Concrete Masonry Unit Fill System?
The Blastcrete MasonMate is specialized construction equipment designed to simplify concrete masonry unit filling on high-rise projects. It integrates bulk material loading, continuous mixing, and hydraulic pumping to help contractors streamline the process of filling CMU walls.
The machine features a 2-inch D3522 hydraulic squeeze pump driven by a heavy-duty planetary gearbox. Its high-shear continuous mixer supports ongoing material preparation, while the integrated 1,000 lb. capacity bulk bag lifter helps simplify bulk material loading.
The specified configuration operates with a 35 HP Briggs & Stratton gasoline engine. Alternative power options include a Kubota water-cooled diesel engine and a 30 HP electric motor with starter and disconnect.
Designed for restricted construction environments, the MasonMate can fit within a freight elevator or be positioned using a telescoping forklift or crane. It is also designed to move with a pallet jack and operate in areas with ceilings as low as 8 feet.
Benefits of a Concrete Masonry Unit Fill System
Efficient CMU filling equipment can help contractors coordinate material preparation and placement while reducing labor-intensive handling. The Blastcrete MasonMate offers several advantages for high-rise masonry projects.
1. Reduce Labor Requirements by Up to 75%
Traditional CMU block filling may require bucket brigades to move material around a construction site. This approach can increase labor requirements and slow down material placement.
The Blastcrete MasonMate is designed to eliminate these bucket brigades and can reduce on-the-job labor by up to 75%. This can help contractors allocate workers more efficiently and reduce the time spent on manual material handling.
2. Combine Continuous Mixing and Hydraulic Pumping
The MasonMate integrates a high-shear continuous mixer with a D3522 hydraulic squeeze pump to support material preparation and delivery.
With a rated output range of 0–6 cubic yards per hour, the system provides a dedicated solution for CMU block filling applications. Actual production rates depend on material properties, site conditions, and operating requirements.
Combining mixing and pumping in one machine helps simplify the equipment setup and supports a more coordinated material placement workflow.
3. Simplify Bulk Material Loading
The integrated 1,000 lb. capacity bulk bag lifter helps simplify material loading and reduce manual handling requirements.
By integrating bag lifting with mixing and pumping, the MasonMate helps contractors manage bulk material more efficiently throughout the block filling process.
4. Improve High-Rise Job-Site Access
Transporting construction equipment between floors can be challenging on multi-story projects. The MasonMate is designed to fit inside a freight elevator and can also be positioned using a telescoping forklift or crane.
Its compact design and pallet-jack mobility help simplify equipment positioning in suitable work areas. The machine is also designed to operate in spaces with ceilings as low as 8 feet.
5. Help Reduce Dust and Improve Workflow
Manual material transfer can generate dust and require repeated handling steps. The MasonMate's integrated material handling system is designed to help reduce dust associated with conventional handling methods.
Reducing manual transfers can also help improve job-site organization and keep material placement activities moving efficiently.
