New Pump Kits for Schwing KVM 32XL and KVM 34X Boom Pumps

The KVM 32XL and 34X truck-mounted concrete boom pumps from Schwing America now come standard with the new high-output, high-pressure Generation III 2025-5 pump kit. The 2025-5 concrete pump brings increased performance and smoothness with 250 mm material cylinders, a 2 m stroke, and twin circuit hydraulics with MPS (Multi Port Shifting).

Also standard on these models is the Big Rock. Offering all of the reliability and low-maintenance benefits of the Schwing patented Rock Valve, the Big Rock features a larger feed area to the extended valve, ideal for feeding harsh mixes at high volumes. The hydraulically driven agitator with optional hopper vibrator assures continuous, smooth flow of concrete to the pumping cylinders.

With the 2025-5 pump kit, the KVM 32XL and 34X concrete pumps achieve up to 136 m3/h output at 23 strokes per minute. Fewer strokes means less wear. The four-section Overhead Roll & Fold® boom design allows maximum utilization for a wide variety of applications.

Also available from Schwing America is the 32XL Detach, a truck-mounted concrete boom pump which gains added versatility with a detachable boom feature. This allows operators to utilize the boom as a separate placing boom in the morning, reattach it to the truck and place concrete miles away in the afternoon.

The 32XL Detach features a Generation III 2023-5 pump kit with 160 m3/h cubic yards per hour output and 0,5 bar pressure on concrete. Equipped with the Schwing patented Rock Valve, this concrete pump offers the lowest maintenance cost pumping the widest variety of mixes to 2,5" aggregate.
