Besser developed the Advantage Series of Bidirectional BiDi concrete pipe machines with producers in mind. A unique frame design permits multiple material feed options. User-friendly component design allows easy access for service, routine maintenance and rapid changeover of attachments. Cleanup time is reduced because there is less material spillage. A steel pit foundation shell reduces installation time so the machine gets into production sooner. All this means Advantage machines will spend more of each production day doing what they do best – making high quality concrete pipe.
Advantage machines combine advanced pipe-making technology with the time-tested Bidirectional Rollerhead System to produce pipe with excellent wire-to-concrete bond, improved compaction and superior appearance. High production Advantage machines manufacture pipe in uniform lengths with precise joint detail and quality inside and outside finish. Reinforcing cage twist problems are eliminated, leading to higher product strengths.
BiDi Advantage machines are available in four models:
• A-36 machine to produce concrete pipe diameters 8” – 36” (200 mm – 900 mm) in maximum lengths of 8’ (2.5 m) or 10’ (3 m)
• A-48 machine for diameters 8” – 48” ( 200 mm – 1200 mm) in maximum lengths of 8’ or 12‘ (2.5 m or 3.5 m)
• A-60 machine for diameters 12” – 60” (300 mm – 1500 mm) in maximum lengths of 8’ (2.5 m) or 12’ (3.5 m)
• A-84 machine for diameters 18” – 84” (450 mm – 2100 mm) in maximum lengths of 8’ (2.5 m) or 12’ (3.5 m)
