Advantages of a Volumetric Mixer

The customers in the Permian Basin area are not served well by conventional tumble drum trucks due to the amount of time it takes to get to the typical off-road sites, the distances required to travel to the sites, and the high temperatures encountered in West Texas. Raider Mobile Mix's volumetric trucks, as opposed to traditional tumble-drum rigs, allow customers to have their jobs custom-mixed and metered on-site which means that the concrete is always fresh and that customers only pay for actual usage.

Time to Pour

Tumble drums only have 1 - 1.5 hours to pour before concrete hardens and goes bad. VCM has an unlimited time to pour; only mix and pour when ready making VCM the only practical solution in Permian.

Remote Job Sites

Majority of West Texas oilfield jobs are remote and can be delayed by traffic, construction, and rough oilfield roads. Volumetric Mixers mix fresh on site so no job is too remote.

Standby Time

Oilfield jobs are often delayed by equipment breakdowns, weather, or supply issues requiring concrete trucks to be flexible. VCM can standby on job site for any amount of time to service customer.

Multiple Jobs on Site

Customers often have multiple time consuming, small jobs such as piers on compressor stations and tank batteries.
