High‑Performance Concrete Pump Hydraulic Systems


Hydraulic systems used in concrete pump trucks must operate continuously under heavy loads.  Every function—moving the boom, shuttling the concrete piston back and forth, rotating the hopper and swinging the outriggers—is driven by hydraulic pumps and motors.  The right pump selection, regular maintenance and high‑quality spare parts are therefore critical to both machine safety and operational efficiency.  On this page we introduce the Rexroth hydraulic pump and motor models commonly found in Putzmeister, Schwing, Cifa, Sermac, Betonstar and other concrete pump brands, and we outline our sales, overhaul and spare part services.

Open and Closed Circuits in Concrete Pump Hydraulics


A typical concrete pump has several hydraulic pumps.  The closed‑circuit main pump provides the high pressure and large flow rate needed to drive the main concrete piston forward and backward.  Open‑circuit pumps feed auxiliary functions such as boom motions, outriggers (stabilisers), mixer rotation and water pumps.  Pumps in these circuits are built for high pressure and long life; with proper oil filtration they will work reliably for years.

A4VG Series – Closed‑Circuit Main Pumps


The Rexroth A4VG series is the most widely used variable‑displacement closed‑circuit axial piston pump in concrete pump main drives.  A swashplate mechanism adjusts the displacement according to engine speed and swashplate angle, allowing the operator to control material flow precisely.  A4VG pumps stand out for several reasons:
  • Integrated charge pump and pilot oil circuit maintain boost pressure in the closed loop, ensuring safe operation at high speed and high outlet pressure.【14†L163-L170】
  • Smooth flow reversal through the neutral position of the swashplate keeps the concrete pistons perfectly synchronised.
  • High pressure capability: nominal ratings of 400–450 bar, with peak pressure up to 500 bar.  These pumps can handle the toughest concrete pump applications.
  • Wide displacement range: from 40 cc to 280 cc per revolution.  The most common models in concrete pumps are A4VG125, A4VG145, A4VG180 and A4VG110.

You will find A4VG pumps as the primary pump in machines like the Putzmeister BSF 36‑4, 42‑5 and 52‑5, Schwing S39SX and S46SX, Cifa K36 and K42, Sermac 5Z36 and 5Z42, and Betonstar 38 m and 42 m booms.  We stock both new and reconditioned units; every overhauled pump is tested on our hydraulic bench before shipment.

A10VO and A10VSO Series – Open‑Circuit Auxiliary Pumps


For auxiliary circuits where variable flow is required, the Rexroth A10VO and A10VSO series are widely used.  These medium‑pressure pumps are typically rated for 280 bar continuous pressure, with peaks up to 350 bar【12†L292-L300】.  Key features include:
  • Swashplate design allows flow to be controlled by shaft speed and plate angle; operators can precisely regulate outriggers and boom movements.
  • High efficiency and quiet operation: A10V pumps are renowned for their efficiency and reduce overall noise in the hydraulic system【12†L278-L285】.
  • Models such as A10VO28, A10VO45, A10VO60, A10VO71, A10VO85 and A10VO100 are common in Putzmeister Elephant series, Schwing outriggers and mixer drives, and other auxiliary circuits.  The A10VSO pumps are frequently used in industrial concrete batching plants for pressure and flow control【12†L292-L300】.

These pumps power boom extension/retraction, outrigger deployment, water pumps and concrete mixer drives on many machines.  We carry original Rexroth A10VO/A10VSO pumps and refurbished units, and we provide repair services.

A7V Series – Bent‑Axis High‑Pressure Pumps


The Rexroth A7V series consists of bent‑axis axial piston pumps designed for very high pressures.  They deliver the power needed for heavy‑duty functions in concrete pump hydraulics.  Highlights include:
  • High power density and robust construction: A7V pumps produce 350 bar nominal and up to 450 bar maximum pressure in a compact package.
  • Wide displacement range: typical models include A7V28, A7V55, A7V80 and A7V107.  In particular, A7V80 pumps are commonly used to drive Putzmeister and Schwing boom circuits, while A7V28 pumps can be found in smaller concrete pumps and mixer drives.
  • Adjustable swashplate: the displacement can be changed to provide high torque at low speed or high speed at low torque.  This flexibility allows the pump to adapt to varying working conditions.

We supply new and remanufactured A7V pumps and offer rebuild and testing services for this series.

A2FO/A2F Series – Fixed‑Displacement Pumps and Motors


The A2FO (or A2F) series of Rexroth pumps and motors provide a fixed displacement option for concrete pump circuits.  Built with a bent‑axis layout, these units deliver constant flow and are simple, reliable and capable of very high pressures.
  • High pressure capability: A2FO pumps are rated for 400 bar continuous and 450 bar peak pressure【23†L173-L181】, making them suitable for water pumps and other high‑pressure circuits.
  • Compact and long‑life design: the 30°–40° bent‑axis piston group provides high power in a short installation length【23†L173-L181】.  Displacements range from 5 cc up to about 130 cc per revolution.
  • Typical applications: In Putzmeister concrete pumps, models such as A2F016/61L, A2F023/61L and A2F032 drive water pumps and auxiliary functions; similar models are used in Cifa and Schwing machines.

Hydraulic Motors and Other Components


Concrete pump systems also incorporate hydraulic motors where low speed and high torque are required.  Models like BRHL 750, BRHL 470, BP500 and OMP160 are used on Putzmeister and Schwing mixer drives.  We also supply adapter flanges, pump shafts, motor repair kits, pump housings, main pump seal kits and other parts.  All components are available as new or refurbished, and we can source the right part number for your machine.
