Plaster station for quick decoration.

Today, despite the active introduction of polymer finishing components, when repairing premises, plaster mixture is an indispensable material. This component is easy to prepare, easy to apply and allows you to give the wall all the required parameters. But often, construction companies and even ordinary owners of private homes have to deal with large areas of machined surfaces. In this case, the plaster station will become simply an indispensable assistant.

Own "plaster factory"

Now, no one doubts the fact that the work performed by the mechanized method is distinguished by the quality, speed of the events, and also allows saving labor resources and money. And among all the automated devices intended for minor repairs, the presented installations occupy a special place.

A plaster station is a set of tools that includes everything you need for the preparation, supply and application of plaster on the walls. This unit is controlled by electronic control systems. Using a set of hardware, it is possible to carry out construction works of various specifics:

1. Application of decorative plaster.
2. The device of thermal and waterproofing of vertical surfaces.
3. Arrangement of the bulk floor, the surface under the screed.
4. Creating a fire retardant coating.

The presented series of performed operations confirms the multifunctionality of the installations, and also proves their versatility and indispensability during installation works both indoors and outdoors.

Device device

In the construction equipment market, you can find a large number of installations that differ in brand names, performance and additional functionality. However, invariably each plaster station has the following nodes in its composition:

1. Receiver - the initial dry components necessary for the preparation of the solution are poured into it.
2. Mixing hopper, in which the process of preparing the plaster itself takes place.
3. Drive gear. It can be represented as a diesel or gasoline engine, and an electric motor.
4. The solution and water supply system is for transferring the mixture to the place of work and obtaining clean liquid for preparing the plaster.
5. Sleeves, through which the flow direction of the finished component is regulated.
6. An electronic control panel that automates almost the entire process.

It should be noted that the plaster station may consist of more or fewer elements. In the second case, one working body performs several functions.

Advantages over “manual labor”

Not every mechanized process has advantages over the manual way of working. In some cases, acquiring a special installation is simply not practical. So, the plaster station will become an indispensable assistant only if a large front of work is to be completed. Only then its positive aspects will give odds to a person:

1. The speed of work.
2. Save money and resources.
3. High-quality preparation of the mixture.
4. Even application of the solution.
5. Possibility of plastering in hard to reach places.
6. Automation of the repair process.

In addition, one cannot but note the almost complete absence of the human factor, which gives rise to most marriages in the workplace.

Leader in Russia

As mentioned earlier, such an installation can be represented on the Russian market by a large number of manufacturers. However, among all the devices, the plaster station PFT G4 deserves a special word. Today this model is one of the most popular in Russia.

The main advantage of the installation is a special scheme for the preparation and supply of the solution to the place of work:

1. Dry components are poured into the hopper, and the machine doses and mixes them independently.
2. Ready dry mix in balanced proportions is mixed with water.
3. Under the action of the pump, the plaster enters the nozzle.
4. The air compressor creates a pressure difference, as a result of which the plaster rushes to the wall surface in a fast uniform flow.

The mixture that the PFT plastering station provides at the outlet is characterized by a uniform consistency and normal density. Electronic controls allow you to almost completely automate the process.

Compact devices

At medium-sized facilities, as well as small companies involved in installation works, it is recommended to purchase mini-installations. The stucco mini-station has its advantages over the "elder brothers":

1. Mobility - the weight of such a machine is up to 90 kg, which is an order of magnitude less than previous models.
2. Performance - it is only a few points below full-featured devices.
3. Ability to work from an autonomous power source.
4. A simple device that charitable impact on the operation and possible repair.

Cons of mini-devices

Despite the fact that the compact plaster station has remarkable characteristics, the only negative can cause the client to refuse to purchase. It consists in the fact that such machines use the finished mixture for work. You will either have to mix the composition manually, or purchase a ready-to-eat product in the store.

But acquiring such an installation will be a more competent decision than a used plaster station that you bought on the black market. In this case, it’s better to overpay a bit and get a really working device, than to face the soon exit of their installation.
