and technical parameters are mentioned in the Operating and maintance
instructions made by producer. The user manual is obligatory for all users that use
this machine.
II. Use
The machine is designed for spraying concrete, lining mine workings, water
structures and engineering structures, for carrying out repair work of minor extent
in the building industry. If used to spray refractory concrete mixtures, it is
designed to line furnaces, boilers, coke-oven batteries, etc., for cold and hot
spraying, as well as in power engineering and metallurgy.
The machine can also be used to convey bulk materials which do not develop
flammable /explosive/ dust during transport. The dosing of the transported
materials is smooth and continual.
The machine is designed for the operation in the places free of a danger from the
methane (SNM-0) explosion and other inflammable gasses as stated in CSN EN
1127-2.
To guarantee smooth operation of the machine it is necessary to keep to the
recommended aggregate composition according to the granularity chart, per
standards CSN EN 12620,CSN EN 13055-1.
The machine may be used in media with temperatures ranging from + 5 to +40°C.
III. Machine operating
Start operating –opening and adjusting compressed air, then turning on the
electric motor.
Presence of the machine operator is not necessary unless during refilling of the
dry composition and its application.
Finish operating –it is necessary to empty the feeding hopper and blow
compressed air distribution system by air. After that to switch off the electric
motor and then close compressed air cock.

The electric motor is fitted with a stepped pulley and connected by one V-belt
with the slide-on gearbox
The bearing part of the dosing drum, the machine drive and the air distribution
system are fitted to the rear self-supporting frame. The bantam wheels are
screwed to the sides of the base frame.
The dosing drum is fitted to the upper side of the bearing part shaft by a square-
end and clamping nut. There are two dosing drums which can be exchanged
depending on the performance of the machine required and DN (inner diameter)
of the transport hoses.
The machine head is fixed to the hinged frame, and the sealing plate, its bottom
sealing surface bearing on the dosing drum, is fixed to its bottom side. The
blower, air inlet, feeder and exhaust of residual air from the dosing drum pockets
are fitted to the upper side of the machine head.
The loading hopper is equipped with the vibrator and the adapter fitted with a
screen and saw to cut the sacks
There is a rippling in the loading hopper that is used to fulfil the dosing drum
pockets. The rippling can be used only with the dosing drum I.
The hinged frame, in which the machine head is fixed, is fitted at the sides to two
levers which are pivoted on one side in the suspension of the machine frame and
on the other side clamped by two clamping bolts. Clamping bolts are used to
control the pressure of the sealing plate on the dosing drum. The levers have
holders for lifting the machine with a crane.
The sealing cuff is used to seal the space between the base frame and the machine
head. The sealing cuff is fixed with the tightening strip.
The dust absorber with the filter bag is fitted on the machine head. It is used to
catch the residual dust materials from the dosing drum pockets.
The air distribution system consists of the main air inlet and two or three cocks.
The main air inlet is fitted with a cock and quick coupler for the connection with
pressure hose DN 40. The other cocks are used to control the compressed air into
the blower (there is also a pressure gauge), pneumatic vibrator and for the
machine cleaning. The air distribution system is fitted on the lateral side of the
cover.
The machine controls are concentrated on the lateral side of the cover of the
electric motor. Electric power is supplied via a cable to the switch. (For dimension
chart refer to Appendix no.1).
The machine is placed on the bantam-tyre wheels or rail undercarriage.
The accessories consist of the delivery hose, end hose with the nozzle, water hose,
sealing plates and nozzle endings.

Working principle
The mixture to be sprayed or conveyed is poured into the loading hopper to fill
the pockets of the dosing drum. The dosing drum is filled continually. From the
pockets of the dosing drum is blown by compressed air to the blower and from
there into the transport hoses, at the end of which a spraying gun is mounted.
Mixing water is fed into the spraying gun simultaneously to moisten the spraying
mixture. The volume of mixing water is controlled by a tap.
Machine drive
There are three types of machine drive:
I. Electric motor with variable speed pulley (STANDARD)
The electric motor is fitted with a stepped pulley and connected by one V-belt with the
slide-on gearbox, which is keyed by a hollow output shaft to the shaft of the bearing
part of the dosing drum. By mechanical rotating the gearbox the drive rpms are
controlled in a range of 1:1,5. The gearbox may be rotated only in time the machine is
stopped. The machine is turned on and the dosing drum is rotating by the central
switch.
II. Two speed electric motor (DUO)
The electric motor is fitted with a stepped pulley and connected by one V-belt with the
slide-on gearbox, which is keyed by a hollow output shaft to the shaft of the bearing
part of the dosing drum. The output is adjusted by the switch. There are two standings
–4 or 6 poles (1450/960 rpms)
III.Electric motor with frequency convertor (COM-F)
The electric motor with the frequency changer is fitted with a stepped pulley and
connected by one V-belt with the slide-on gearbox, which is keyed by a hollow output
shaft to the shaft of the bearing part of the dosing drum. The output is electronically
controlled by four (4) buttons on the related control box. The machine is turned on by
the central switch (dosing drum is not rotating). The drum is rotating when the green
button is pressed. The output is changing by black button “+“ and black button “-“.
The drum stops rotating when the red button is pressed. The machine is turned off
when the central stop is turned. The rpms are controlled in a range of 1:4.

The drum should be selected with a view to the performance required.
The technical performance depends on the type and composition of the
transported mixture, the transporting distance, the volume and pressure of
compressed air and the manner of filling the machine feeder.
