Overview Summary

The Tarle SLM 2200 stands out for its larger drum and water tank capacity, higher gradeability and ground clearance making it suitable for tougher conditions and larger batches of concrete. On the other hand, the AJAX ARGO 2500 offers a more powerful engine at lower RPMs, hydrostatic steering for better maneuverability, and a slightly lower price point, albeit with a smaller tank capacity.

Tarle SLM 2200 Self Loading Concrete Mixer

Pros:

BS-IV / CEV Stage IV compliant engine for lower emissions
Higher maximum power (49.5 HP) at 2200 RPM
Larger drum capacity (2.2 m³) for more volume per batch
Higher water tank capacity (580 L) for better water supply
Greater gradeability (23°) improves operation on slopes
Larger fuel tank capacity (80 L) for extended operation
Higher ground clearance (340 mm) for better offroad capability

Cons:

Manual mechanical steering might require more effort
Lower maximum speed (23 km/h) compared to AJAX ARGO 2500
Smaller bucket capacity (450 L)

AJAX ARGO 2500 Self Loading Concrete Mixer

Pros:

More advanced CEV-5 / BS-5 engine for cutting-edge emission standards
Automotive hydrostatic transmission for smoother operation
Hydrostatic power steering and 3-way steering for better maneuverability
Higher engine power (58 HP) at lower RPM (2000)
Slightly cheaper operation based on the lower end of the price range
Unique pressure transducer/load cell weighing technology
More compact design with a lower overall height (3750 mm)

Cons:

Smaller fuel tank (64 L) might require more frequent refueling
Lower drum rotation speed (0 to 18 rpm) compared to Tarle SLM 2200
Hydraulic tank and water tank capacities are lower than Tarle SLM 2200

Closing Recommendation

If you prioritize robustness and volume per batch, the Tarle SLM 2200 would be favorable. However, if your priority is ease of operation and steering sophistication, AJAX ARGO 2500 would be a better choice, particularly in environments where compactness and budget are key considerations.
