IPM 500 Wet and Dry Shotcrete Machine | Denmak

What is the IPM 500 and What Does It Do?

In the challenging environments of the construction and mining sectors, ground consolidation and shoring works are vital for project safety. The IPM 500 Wet and Dry Concrete Spraying Machine, produced with the assurance of Denmak Makina, is a high-capacity machine designed for both wet (wet system concrete pump) and dry system shotcrete (concrete spraying) applications.

This machine ensures that the prepared mortar or concrete is conveyed through hoses under high pressure and rapidly adheres to the surface (tunnel ceiling, slopes, curtain concrete, etc.). Eliminating formwork costs and saving on labor, the IPM 500 accelerates job sites with a concrete spraying capacity of 7 to 10 cubic meters per hour (theoretical).

Where is the IPM 500 Used?

Thanks to its strong rotor structure and concrete spraying pump feature, the IPM 500 has a very wide network of uses:

• Tunnel and Metro Construction: In inner tunnel linings (NATM tunneling) and support works.

• Deep Excavation and Shoring: In slope stabilization and ground consolidation (soil nailing) operations in areas with landslide risks.

• Mining Operations: In gallery reinforcements to create safe working areas (rock support).

• Swimming Pool Construction: In concreting free-form pools without molds.

• Dam and HEPP Projects: In the construction and repair of hydraulic structures.

• Refractory Applications: In the repair of high-heat resistant furnaces and chimneys (fire concrete spraying).

How to Use the IPM 500? (Step-by-Step Application Guide)

To ensure the long life of the machine and to operate in accordance with occupational safety standards, the following instructions must be strictly followed:
