REAL-TIME AIR MEASUREMENT FOR TRUCK DRUM APPLICATIONS
SMARThatch™ technology, featuring AIRtrac™ Mobile, is an innovative concrete quality control solution with real-time air, temperature, volume-in-the-drum and revolution counter. This information is available on an in-cab display and cloud-based dashboard. It allows Concrete Producers using mixer trucks to reduce rejected loads, improve quality and consistency, save time and understand how much concrete they are bringing back from a job.

FINANCIAL & OPERATIONAL BENEFITS
- Reduce rejected loads
- Reduce remediation expense
- Reduce time, labour and variability related to manual testing
- Knowing actual volume, time and temperature enable optimal repurposing of concrete
- Optimize yield estimates and control
- Provide continuous measurement of entire load vs. small sample size of traditional manual test
- Deliver real-time concrete air and temperature measurement from batch plant to job site
- Measure your air before discharging - no waiting
- Expand your quality control coverage
- Alert key personnel to out-of-specification concrete
- Provide visibility of adherence to standard operating procedures (e.g. mixing time and drum speed)
- Designed for reliable performance
- Install easily on any truck drum style
"The ability to constantly monitor air entrainment and concrete temperature in 'real-time' is a huge asset to QC personnel and aids in the preliminary dosing of admixtures based on constant data collection."
