Summary: Spreading
concrete
Concrete spreaders are construction machines used in
concrete paving operations to distribute concrete evenly across a surface
before it is smoothed and finished. They play a vital role in ensuring a
consistent layer of concrete is laid, which is crucial for the quality and
durability of the finished pavement.
Function: Concrete spreaders receive concrete from concrete trucks and distribute it uniformly across the width of the paving area. This helps to prevent unevenness and ensures that the concrete is at the correct depth for the subsequent finishing operations.
Mechanism: These machines typically use a system of augers, rollers, or other spreading
devices to move the concrete across the surface. They may also have mechanisms
to control the concrete's depth and profile.
Integration: Concrete spreaders often work in conjunction with other paving equipment, such
as:
Placers: Machines that deposit the
concrete in front of the spreader.
Finishers: Machines that follow the spreader to smooth and compact the concrete surface.
