Foam Concrete
Versatile and Economical
Foam concrete production systems by MAI®: versatile and economical
Foam concrete is a mineral, non-combustible, 100% recyclable and highly insulating product that is more environmentally friendly than systems based on the addition of plastic particles. It is free-flowing and pumpable, making it an ideal material for use in inaccessible areas. Depending on the desired application, it can be produced in a wide range of densities and compressive strengths.
Due to its high air content (up to 90 %), porous lightweight concrete offers numerous advantages and is therefore ideal for filling cavities, for thermal insulation, for fire protection, as backfill for pools, as height compensation fill, as impact sound insulation and for floor stabilization. Due to its insulating properties, it is an ideal alternative to EPS or other insulating materials for the thermal and acoustic insulation of floors and flat roofs.
Mineral foam concrete requires only a minimum of CO² and energy during production and is therefore particularly environmentally friendly.
In recent years, MAI® International GmbH has established itself as a leading supplier of mobile foamed concrete production systems with particularly high process reliability.
MAI® has developed all the components required for a mobile foamed concrete production plant. These can be combined with each other depending on requirements and then form a centrally controlled overall system by connecting them via MAI® NET.
A wide range of foamed concrete densities and production outputs can be covered with a single system without having to replace components. The user-friendly operating concept and integrated recipe management make it easy to operate even complex systems. An optional cloud-based data recording system for construction site documentation is also available.
MAI® Foam Concrete Systems
Complete mobile system
The complete mobile system consists of several components that are connected by MAI® NET technology. It works continuously and can be operated as intuitively as a smartphone. The suspension is mixed in our MAI® MULTIMIX-FC, while foam with a precisely defined consistency and density is produced in the MAI® FOG foam generator. Depending on the application, up to three MAI® DOS dosing pumps for various additives (superplasticizers, accelerators, stabilizers) can be integrated into the system, as well as the MAI® MIX electric post-mixer for perfect mixing of these additives.
Mobile basic system
The mobile basic system consists of a MAI® MULTIMIX-FC mixing pump and the MAI® FOG foam generator. Like the complete system, it offers the full convenience of the central digital control and recipe memory, but is limited to applications that do not require additives. However, dosing pumps and post-mixers can be retrofitted at any time.
Silo mounted system
This system is designed for a high material throughput. It is based on the MAI® HICOMP-FC and is permanently mounted on a silo (the system is supplied without a silo). Technically, it is comparable to the mobile systems and offers the option of using up to two MAI® DOS dosing pumps in addition to the MAI® FOG foam generator. Furthermore, the optionally available rotary feeder can be controlled from the mixing pump.
Entry Level System
This system is suitable for users who only work with a few different foam concrete densities and without the addition of additives. It is based on the MAI® 4EVER SUPER-FC mixing pump and the MAI® FOG foam generator. In contrast to the other systems, the delivery rate cannot be adjusted.
