"Mixer Truck Engine" Any machine in order to be able to do its work completely needs power which is usually supplied through the engine, this machine also has an engine that provides the necessary energy to rotate the boiler and the blade. Of course, it may be powered by the truck's own engine or an independent engine; So, as a result, some trucks have one engine and some have two engines.

"funnel" One of the parts that plays a significant role in the loading process is a device called a hopper, which performs its task by passing the material through itself and directing it into the boiler. It is very easy to use but sometimes when using a hinged hopper you have to make sure that it is fully screwed in otherwise it will waste the concrete.

"Cauldron" The part of the device where the loaded materials are placed is called a pot. Its capacity usually depends on its internal volume. In the past, all track mixer boilers were made with steel, but now they are manufactured with fiberglass because by reducing the overall weight of the track mixer, it reduces energy consumption, which saves costs. In the old truck mixers, two people were needed for unloading, because when concrete is unloaded from the back, one person should be there to adjust the unloading place, but now the operator does all these tasks from inside the cabin. without disturbing the discharge process. "pot roller" Pots need to rotate for mixing, which is done by the rollers because the pot is placed on the rollers from the ring area and rotates. "Cauldron Ring" On the body of the pot, there is a raised part that makes it easy to place the pot on the roller, which is called the pot ring.
