As an efficient concrete placement equipment, the internal climbing boom spreader is widely used in the construction of high-rise buildings. Through its unique climbing mechanism, it is possible to carry out placing work inside the building without relying on external support structures. This article will introduce in detail the workflow and the precautions during operation to help operators better understand and use this equipment.

Work Flow
Preparation Phase
- Installation and Fixation
The internal climbing boom distributor is usually installed through a floor opening or elevator shaft, it is necessary to open a suitable hole on the floor or elevator shaft wall, and fix the distributor frame on the edge of the hole. The feeder column is erected in the hole (or elevator shaft) and is fixed by force on the wall.
- Check and commissioning
After the installation is complete, the operator needs to fully check the distributor to ensure that all components are normal, flexible, and tight. This includes checking critical components such as electric motors, traction mechanisms, hydraulic systems, and rotating mechanisms.
Starting And Distributing
- Start The Device
The operator connects the power source and turns on the power switch, and then activates the drive system control button to raise the drum or boom of the placement machine to the initial position.
- Distribution Operation
After starting the distribution machine, the operator needs to accurately control the movement of the boom through the electrical control system. The boom rotates and expands in the horizontal plane and vertical plane to accurately transport the concrete to the specified pouring position.
Climb And Adjust
- Climbing Mechanism
The initial climbing boom distributor can climb through the traction mechanism or hydraulic system. When a layer of distribution work is completed, the distributor will use its own structure or an additional climbing device to move up to the next layer.
- Position Adjustment
After climbing to the new floor, the operator needs to fine-tune the position of the distributor to ensure that the boom can be accurately aligned with the pouring point.
Downtime and Maintenance
- Shutdown Operation
When the distribution operation is complete, the operator should close the placing machine, cut off the power supply and carry out the necessary cleaning and maintenance work in accordance with the prescribed procedures.
- Maintenance
Regular lubrication maintenance and inspection of the distribution machine to ensure that it is in good working condition. This includes checking for wear on components such as wire ropes, pulleys, delivery pipes, and the operation of hydraulic and electrical systems.
Operation Precautions
Safety Protection
Before starting the distribution machine, the operator must wear appropriate protective equipment, such as hard hats, protective glasses, non-slip shoes, etc.
When the placing machine is running, it is strictly prohibited to touch its moving parts to prevent injuries or accidents.
Equipment Inspection
Before each operation, the operator should conduct a comprehensive inspection of all parts of the boom placer to ensure that there is no abnormal wear or damage.
Check the power cable and grounding regularly to prevent electric shock accidents.
Operating Specification
Operators must be professionally trained and proficient in equipment operation skills before taking up the post.
Maintain a steady speed during the placing process to avoid concrete spills or equipment damage caused by violent shaking.
Emergency Treatment
When encountering an abnormal situation or equipment failure, the operator should stop the machine immediately and report it to a professional for processing.
The device shall be equipped with an emergency stop button,which shall be pressed immediately to stop the operation of the device in case of emergency.
Environmental Monitoring
The operator should pay close attention to the weather changes, in the strong wind, rainstorm and other adverse weather conditions should suspend the placing machine operation to ensure the safety of equipment and personnel.
Safety fences and warming signs should be set up in the working range of the placing boom machine to prevent personnel from straying.
To sum up, the work flow of the internal climbing boom placer involves installation, starting, distributing, climbing and adjusting. During the operation, the operator must strictly abide by the safety regulations and operation guidelines to ensure the safe operation of the equipment and the efficient completion of the pouring operation. Through regular maintenance of equipment, its service life can be extended and construction efficiency can be improved.
