Fremont, CA:How does a concrete pump work? A concrete pump is a construction tool that transfers freshly mixed concrete to the job site. Pumps for concrete work by using valves and hydraulics.


Line pumps and boom pumps are the two primary types of concrete pumps. It is important to note that each pump works differently and has distinct advantages.


LINE PUMPS


At ground level, concrete is pumped through hoses until it reaches the final location on the construction site. These pumps can be used around houses or in alleyways when concrete pump trucks can't park in an accessible spot.


Some examples of line pumps include:


• Stationary pumps:

Concrete can be moved directly from a truck mixer using this model, as it comes equipped with a concrete mixer and pump.
