“Example of Use” for Colloidal Grout Mixers:
Colloidal mixers and progressive cavity grout pumps have been fitted to special drilling rigs used by Ritchies, the ground engineering division of Edmund Nuttall, on a project in Gibraltar. In order to achieve this amendments to the standard equipment was needed. Project Manager for Ritchies said, “Colcrete Eurodrill’s after sales service has always been good in the past, so we knew we would be able to rely on them for this job too. The equipment is as good as can be bought on the market.”

Thiessen Team were asked to design a self-contained, mobile, automated colloidal grout plant for use in conditions of up to 500 below zero in Northern Canada. The plant was to incorporate two generator sets, two heating systems, air conditioning, a computerized control room, and two Colcrete colloidal mixers. Along with this were several agitation tanks, dust collector, bulk-bag unloader, and pumps. One Colcrete mixer was to pre-hydrate water and Bentonite and the second was an automated ‘Thiessen Tornado’, with load cell weighing, and self-cleaning functions.
