Power Trowel
Description
Power trowel is a construction machine used to impart a smooth surface finish on freshly poured concrete slabs. This machine consists of one rotor which rotate parallel with the slab surface. Discs or multi-bladed attachments are spun against the still soft concrete surface by the rotors, thereby effectively smoothing out any blemishes or high spots.
When concrete slabs have been thrown, the surface of the concrete is uneven and rough. Most construction specifications require an even slab surface which requires the concrete to be smoothed before it sets and cures. A screed is used to smooth the surface on small slabs, sidewalks, and walkways. A screed is a flat wooden, steel, or aluminum beam that is drawn across the concrete surface to smooth out any high and rough spots. On larger slabs, this method is impractical, and the power trowel comes into its own as the preferred method of surface finishing.
