Trowel for concrete - a tireless worker construction site

operating principle of the machine

There are different types of flooring: Mg, plastic, linoleum, and so on.However, the basis for all of them is a concrete slab.Here it also needs to be carefully aligned.For these purposes the trowel on concrete.With it achieved the monolithic surface, which increases the life of the flooring.In this effort are minimal.

surface using machines processed in two stages.The first thing eliminated all the bumps and drops that are inevitable in the process of concreting.This is done smoothers discs.To carry out the removal of the irregularities can be started after the stop to remain on the concrete tracks from walking.Then begins the grout blade smoothers.This process makes the final floor leveling.The blades are placed on the machine at an angle of 10 degrees and the rotation speed becomes maximum.

Tip!In order for the quality of work is maximized, the blades should be replaced regularly.

Species unit

The unit can be one or two engines.It works on the following principle: the engine, which is firmly attached to the frame, rotates the blades or grinding wheels, due to which there is concrete grout.Engines are gasoline or electric, in the manner of lawnmowers.Accordingly, the fuel acts as gasoline or electricity.Machines with petrol engine has more power, but the electric motor can operate in confined spaces.In addition, electric vehicles much cheaper petrol "brothers."

There are several types of machines:

  • Hand;
  • propelled;
  • autonomous.

rotor Hand trowels are highly maneuverable and easy to use.Without it difficult to perform work in confined spaces and corners.Due to their mobility, they are often used in the construction of multi-storey buildings.Self-propelled twin-engined machines are equipped with seat for the operator.they are used for work in large rooms.There is also a fully self-contained units, but their price is very high, so there are seldom enough.

Note!Despite the high cost of standalone devices, their costs quickly justified.

Trowel concrete: how to choose it?

approach to the selection of the grinding machine is necessary to very carefully.Choose them, focusing on the prospective areas, which will be made of concrete grout.If you plan to use the unit each day, it is recommended to give preference to more powerful units.It will cost much more expensive machines with less power, but it will allow the grout every day and for a long time to operate the machine.

Note!The quality of the grout is not dependent on the engine type.

more powerful machines are the machines with petrol engine.However, as mentioned above, they are not recommended for use on small areas and unventilated areas due to emissions from the engine.However, without these machines can not do at construction sites, which are not supplied with electricity.Another advantage of the petrol engine is that no wires, which can interfere with the operation.In turn, Elektroapparat cheaper and more mobile.So the choice should be guided by the particular working conditions.
