PRIMUSS HIGHLIGHTS

  • Program-controlled production of any channel layout as well as the corresponding inlets and outlets for each pipe connection, Hydraulically optimized channel design.
  • Reduced preparation time due to: Elimination of formwork elements for channels, Elimination of formwork elements for connections, Automatic production of the manhole base, Processing of wet- and dry-cast products.
  • Low tool and energy costs due to milling of fresh concrete.
  • The milled material can be reused.
  • Reduction of personnel costs (1 operator), Proprietary software for designing man hole bases.
  • SmartParts for easy selection of the required spare parts.
  • Intuitive machine control adapted to the operator.

PRIMUSS MANAGER

This user interface gives an overview of the orders scheduled for production.The step by step wizard and plausibility checks makes it easy to create a new order. Additionally, all the master data can be visualized by the user through this UI.

SMART PARTS

Smart parts can easily identify and select the spare parts you are looking for. The 3D modeling and integrated interactive circuit diagrams makes the identification of components easy throughout the plant.

REAL TIME VISUALIZATION

Current orders in production can be visualized in real time over the operator panel or in the office. It helps the operator to make a decision to plan the next product for milling in advance.

Optional extensions for the Primuss

  • Automatic tool changer for various milling tools.
  • Automatic milling material conveyor to reduce the cleaning efforts.
  • Laser-assisted positioning of the manhole bases.
  • Reliable positioning of reinforcement cages.
  • Data analyzer and reporting to provide all relevant production data and statistics.
  • Smart Check for regular and professional inspection of your system.

Frequently Asked Questions

No, you can process drycast and wetcast . The difference lays in the resting time until the precast part can be processed.

Yes, also reinforced parts can be milled. Cage reinforced and fiber-reinforced concrete can be processed on the PRIMUSS

Manhole bases; stormwater pits (rectangular / round); risers (rectangular / round) with a maximum circular product outer diameter of 2200mm (86‘‘) or a square product outer diameter of 1500 x 1500mm ( 60‘‘ x 60‘‘)

Yes, it is. The Primuss can process drycast and wetcast and is therefore suitable for existing production systems e.g.

The milled material falls onto conveyor belts located below the PRIMUSS robots and is automatically transported out of the pit via conveyor belts or a bucket elevator.

The material can then be returned to the concrete cycle in accordance with regulatory requirements.

An additional advantage is the reduction in cleaning effort.

No. The PRIMUSS operates entirely without styrofoam or EPS form parts. Channels and pipe connections are created directly in the concrete using automated milling technology.

Removing EPS from the process significantly simplifies production:

  • No purchasing, storage, or logistics of EPS parts
  • No inserting, removing, or cleaning of styrofoam
  • Fewer process steps and reduced error potential
  • Higher automation and consistent, repeatable quality
  • No disposal or recycling processes

➡️ Resulting in lower unit costs and improved production efficiency.

  • Very high dimensional accuracy
  • Smooth, hydraulically optimized surfaces
  • No impressions or seams from form parts
  • A fully monolithic concrete structure without other material

This results in durable, high-quality precast concrete products.

Yes. All geometries are digitally defined, not physically limited by molds.

This allows:

  • Variable pipe angles and elevations
  • Project-specific channel designs
  • Fast changeovers without additional tooling

  • No plastic materials in production
  • Reduced waste and disposal effort
  • Lower resource and energy consumption
  • Reuse of leftover concrete residue

➡️ PRIMUSS supports sustainable and future-oriented concrete manufacturing.

The PRIMUSS 2.0 offers a wide range of application. It varies from common storm sewer to drains and industrial sewage systems. No matter if a manhole base part is used in a new sewage line or for overhaul of an existing system – the parts are bespoke made to any possible solid geometry and can be readily available within the shortest time and adaptable to most difficult circumstances.

The advantages are without doubt: Machine time and cost saving production,short lead times, optimum channel forming and an environmentally friendly manufacturing method.
