A concrete mixer's drum has to keep turning continuously — whether the truck is moving, stopped in traffic, or waiting at a pour site — or the load starts to set. That non-negotiable requirement runs through a PTO-driven closed-circuit piston pump, almost always a Bosch Rexroth A4VG in the Indian market, controlling drum direction and speed independent of the truck's engine RPM. PumpGrid supplies tested drum-drive and chute pumps.
The drum drive pump is the heart of a mixer truck's hydraulics — a variable-displacement closed-circuit axial piston pump, PTO-driven off the truck's transmission, that lets the drum spin continuously in either direction regardless of whether the truck is moving. Bosch Rexroth's A4VG series dominates this application. A separate, smaller pump — often an Eaton unit — drives the discharge chute's swing function on trucks so equipped.

Measured against Rexroth tolerance — the closed-circuit design's efficiency depends on tight clearance here.
Inspected and rebuilt — supplies replenishing oil to the closed loop, critical for continuous drum rotation.
Tested for smooth forward/reverse response — this controls both drum direction and mixing/agitating speed.
Replaced as standard on every unit.
Charge pressure and output verified before the pump ships, documented on the test report.
A new A4VG unit through the mixer truck OEM channel carries a real premium. Quality Process gets you the same tested output at significantly lower cost.
If the drum stops turning, the concrete on board can start to set — a total loss. We prioritise fast dispatch on mixer truck pumps to avoid this scenario recurring.
Ready-mix concrete operators running multiple trucks get volume pricing and stock reservation on repeat orders.
Minimum 3-month warranty. Written test report with actual pressure and output readings included with every order.
