Schwing Stetter AM 10 (C2) vs Sunbeam 85 XL: Which Transit Mixer to Choose?

The Schwing Stetter AM 10 (C2) and the Sunbeam 85 XL are both large-capacity transit mixers for demanding sites. The Schwing Stetter carries the bigger load of the two, with a wider drum and a clearly specified water line volume, useful on large-scale pours that need steady water supply. The Sunbeam 85 XL turns its drum faster and carries a larger water tank, which helps keep the concrete workable and the drum clean between loads.

On big infrastructure jobs, both drum capacity and mixing speed affect how smoothly a pour goes, so weigh them against your actual site needs instead of picking on capacity alone. See the full transit mixer range and our concrete mixer guide for more buying help.
