With so many options, it can be difficult to know what will work best for you. Here are some things to keep in mind when choosing a cement mixer:
1. Mixer Capacity
One of the most important things to look for when you choose a cement mixer is size.
If you are taking on a large project, which will require a lot of concrete, you should hire a larger mixer, such as a drum or barrel mixer, which can prepare more concrete at once, making your job easier.
If you're just mixing small batches of concrete, then a smaller machine will be sufficient.
2. Mixer Type
Cement mixers come in three types: planetary, drum, and continuous feed.
Each type has its own advantages and disadvantages:
Planetary mixers are typically cheaper than drum mixers but take longer to complete a batch Drum mixers are faster but more expensive than planetary models.
Continuous-feed mixers allow for continuous mixing without waiting for the batch to finish before starting another one (which makes them ideal for large jobs)
