The DBM comes equipped with: portal axles (increased ground clearance), 4WD with three steering modes, hydrostatic transmission, and a robust engine. The DBM3500 is a compact machine (ft./in.: 17.9 x 7.7 x 12.7) with excellent weight balance and a travel speed of up to 25 mph. The 100 HP (Tier 4 Final-compliant) engine is placed on the front side of the frame, maximizing ventilation for cooling and accessibility.
When fully loaded, the concrete mass is pushed onto the longitudinal axis of the machine to maintain the gravitational center. When unladen, the barrel offset, in relation to the frame axle, compensates for the cab weight and supplies optimal front and rear visibility. Operator and machine safety are designed into every DBM concrete mixer. A lever is used to reverse the direction of machine travel. The comfortable seat spins 180° to access the rear controls that drive the vehicle, manages the mixing drum and self-loading bucket. The ROP-certified cab is built with double controls split between front and rear. Machine performance is controlled from the cab or the ground. This hydraulically lifted and adjustable chute (+/- 90° F) and its two 10 ft. The maximum unloading height of the discharge chute is 6.7 ft. Added to the vertical tilt capability, the DBM3500 can discharge concrete up to 330 degrees around the machine. The drum sits on a ‘fifth wheel’ allowing 180-degree lateral rotation. From the ground, an operator can control engine acceleration, water pump activation, drum rotation, barrel lift, chute lift and emergency stop. A gallon counter placed on the dashboard, and on the ground controls, regulates the amount of water delivered into the barrel and the lance.Ī unique feature of the Merlo DBM3500 is the ground controls that replicate controls found in the cab. The hydraulic water system is composed of a self-priming pump (66 g/min.) with a 3-way diverter to the barrel, tank, or the 20 ft. The bucket door automatically opens to unload the aggregate into the drum. The hydraulics on the self-loading bucket lifts and rotates the bucket as needed. The drum ensures a high-quality mix, thanks to the high geometric volume of the drum, a reduced angle of inclination, and a double spiral propeller with variable pitch. The DBM 3500 is available through Applied Machinery Sales-the official importer and distributor of Merlo telehandlers and rotos in the U.S. ft of concrete to be made in less than 15 minutes. The pump moves 66 gallons of water per minute into the mixing drum, suppling up to 37.7 sq. 3 of concrete. The self-loading bucket handles up to 25 ft. The Merlo DBM 3500 self-contained mini cement mixer features a drum volume of 1,321 gallons delivering 4.6 yd. From dozers, loaders and excavators to skid steers and retrofit kits, I plan on prioritizing the equipment categories you care about most in the Equipment Today print magazine and on /Equipment in the coming months.Ĭongratulations again to the winners of the 2022 Contractors’ Top New Products Awards! Here are a few stand-outs: In the meantime, fleet managers, I'll be focusing on the earthmoving equipment, fleet management and technology trends you want to read about.

I know that you will find these Top Products to be as useful and best-in-class as the Equipment Today team does, from excavators to cranes to portable compressors. I hope our readers find the products they seek to best support their fleets among the awarded equipment. These equipment trends showed up in various places in this year’s Contractors’ Top 50 New Products. I am seeing compact equipment trending, along with highly versatile attachments, as I keep my eyes on the industry’s hot topics. 2022 saw another busy season for the construction equipment industry.
It seems like just yesterday we were gearing up for the busiest part of the season, and now we are looking at winding down for fall and preparing equipment for winter. Much has happened in the last year-supply chain challenges, inflation and more. The winning products shown represent the most significant introductions or updates for each manufacturer from April 2021 through April 2022. Award recipients are based on nominations and page view data on new products featured in Equipment Today and on /Equipment over a one-year period. The Contractors’ Top New Products Awards showcase new equipment, technology and products that the construction industry and the Equipment Today team have identified as the most intriguing and important of the year.
