Shuttle E9
The Elematic Shuttle E9 is designed for fully automatic concrete distribution on a two‐rail track from the batching and mixing plant to an intermediate silo or to a casting machine in precast concrete production.
The Elematic fully automated concrete distribution system includes Shuttle E9, a track and a washing station. The system offers a fast and reliable way of distributing concrete between the B&M plant and desired casting spots. The system can be adapted to existing B&M plants.

OPERATION
The Shuttle E9 features fully automatic operation.
The shuttle has four-wheel drive and inverter-controlled travel motors. It offers a high driving speed of up to 3.2 m/s, which enables concrete to be transported to remote discharge points.
The shuttle is discharged by turning the bucket upside down with an inverter-controlled gear motor. The turning speed can be customized.
CONTROL SYSTEM
The Shuttle E9 features an ELiDIST control system. The programmable logic control (PLC) and sensors respond to the counter plates of the track. Travel on track is also controlled by the PLC, and the shuttle receives instructions from the current rail. It can also be manually operated with a remote control.
BUILT-IN SAFETY
The Shuttle E9 meets EC Machine Directive requirements and comes with a thorough and clear operator, maintenance, and safety manuals in the required language.
CONSTRUCTION
The Shuttle E9 is compatible with both straight and curved tracks. It uses tracks with a narrow design for efficient use of floor space in precast plants.
The structure of the shuttle is protected against damage caused by water and concrete. The bucket mantle is made of wear‐resistant steel.
The shuttle has polyurethane wheels for silent travel.
SPEED
MAXIMUM SHUTTLE SPEED ON STRAIGHT SECTIONS OF TRACK
Straight track
- Shuttle loaded: 2.6 m/s, shuttle empty: 3.2 m/s
Track with max. inclination angle 5 degrees (9%)
- Shuttle loaded: 2.0 m/s, shuttle empty: 2.5 m/s
Track with max. inclination angle 9 degrees (16%)
