Dust Control and Environmental Protection Measures in Concrete Spreader Construction

  Concrete laser levelings and polishers are two different types of mechanical equipment with different functions and application fields. Here are their main differences: ✔How it works The concrete laser leveling machine uses laser measurement technology to emit a laser beam through a laser transmitter. The laser receiver receives the reflected laser signal and calculates the distance and direction of the leveling machine's movement, thereby accurately controlling the leveling machine's traveling route and direction. height to achieve the purpose of leveling the concrete surface. A concrete grinder is a mechanical device that uses an electrically driven grinding wheel or grinding wheel for grinding. The grinding wheel rotates under the drive of the motor and grinds the concrete surface smooth through a manual or automatic control system. ✔Application areas Concrete laser leveling machines are mainly used for leveling operations in large-area concrete projects, such as highways, bridges, parking lots, etc. It has the advantages of high precision, high efficiency, automation, etc., and can complete the leveling work of a large number of concrete surfaces in a short time. Concrete grinders are mainly used for grinding on construction sites and small-area concrete projects. It can grind various concrete surfaces, such as floors, walls, columns, etc. ✔How to operate Concrete laser levelings usually use automated control systems that can be operated via a computer or remote control. The operator only needs to set relevant parameters and routes, and the leveling machine can automatically perform leveling operations. The concrete grinder requires manual control by the operator, and the depth and uniformity of grinding can be controlled by adjusting the height and angle of the grinding wheel. Operators need to have certain skills and experience to achieve good grinding results. ✔Processing quality Due to the use of laser measurement technology, the concrete laser leveling machine can complete large-area leveling operations in a short time and can achieve high precision and flatness. It can control the flatness error of the concrete surface within a small range and improve the quality and service life of the concrete surface. The processing quality of a concrete grinder mainly depends on the skill and experience of the operator. If the operator has rich experience and high skill level, he can achieve better smoothing results. However, if the operator's technical level is not high or unskilled, it may lead to uneven grinding depth or excessive grinding, affecting the processing quality and service life. ✔Processing efficiency The processing efficiency of concrete laser leveling machines is usually high. It can achieve automated control and high-precision measurement to complete the leveling operations of a large number of concrete surfaces in a short time. At the same time, due to the use of laser measurement technology, it can avoid errors and delays in traditional measurement methods. The processing efficiency of concrete grinders is relatively low. It requires operators to manually control the height and angle of the grinding wheel, as well as the grinding time and speed, which requires more time and manpower to complete large-area concrete projects. ✔Maintenance and care Maintenance and maintenance of a concrete laser leveling is relatively simple. It requires regular inspection of the cleanliness and accuracy of the laser transmitter and receiver, as well as routine lubrication and maintenance of the machine. At the same time, regular cleaning and maintenance of the machine is also required to maintain the normal operation and service life of the machine. The maintenance and upkeep of concrete polishers is relatively complicated. It requires regular inspection of the working status of the grinding wheel and motor, and regular lubrication and maintenance of the machine. At the same time, the grinding wheel also needs to be replaced and adjusted to ensure the normal operation and service life of the machine. In summary, although concrete laser levelings and polishers are both used for concrete surface treatment, there are certain differences in their working principles, application fields, operating methods, processing quality, processing efficiency, and maintenance. difference. When choosing to use, you need to choose the appropriate machinery according to the actual situation

  – Tools and methods: Use a 2-meter ruler and a feeler gauge for measurement. Place the 2-meter ruler on the concrete surface so that it fits tightly against the ground, and then use the feeler gauge to measure the maximum gap between the ruler and the ground. For general industrial and civil building floors, the allowable flatness deviation is usually within 4-5 mm; for places with high precision requirements, such as electronic chip production workshops, precision instrument laboratories, etc., the flatness deviation requirement may be within 2-3 mm. If the measured gap is within the specified range, it means that the compaction effect of the trowel meets the quality standards in terms of flatness. – Visual inspection to assist judgment: In addition to tool measurement, it is also important to observe whether the ground has obvious waves, potholes or bulges by naked eyes. Stand at a certain distance (such as 5-10 meters) to observe the overall effect of the ground to see whether the light is reflected evenly on the ground. If the ground reflects light evenly without obvious changes in light and shadow, it usually means that the ground is relatively flat and the compaction effect is good. – Rebound hammer test: Use a rebound hammer to test the concrete surface. The rebound hammer hits the concrete surface and infers the strength of the concrete based on the rebound value, which indirectly reflects the density. During the test, multiple test points should be selected on the concrete surface (generally no less than 3 points per 10 square meters) to calculate the average rebound value. Concrete of different strength grades has a corresponding standard range of rebound values. For example, the rebound value of C30 concrete is generally between 34 and 46. If the rebound value obtained by the test is within the standard range of concrete of the corresponding strength grade, it means that the concrete density is high and the compaction effect of the trowel is good. – Core sampling analysis: In some cases with extremely high quality requirements or disputes, the core sampling method can be used. Use professional core drilling equipment to take out core samples with a diameter of usually 100-150 mm in the concrete structure. Observe the appearance of the core sample, which should be uniform in texture and without obvious pores and stratification. Then send the core sample to the laboratory for compressive strength testing and porosity analysis. The compressive strength meets the design requirements and the porosity is low (generally no more than 5% – 8%, depending on the specific project requirements), indicating that the density of the concrete meets the quality standards and the compaction effect of the trowel machine is qualified. – Visual observation: Carefully observe the trowel traces on the concrete surface. The trowel traces should be uniform and continuous, without obvious depth or interruption. If the trowel traces are uniform, it means that the pressure applied by the trowel machine to the ground during work is uniform and the compaction effect is good. For example, after the construction of a large area of ​​parking lot floor, the trowel traces on the entire floor should show a consistent texture, without local roughness or over-troweled areas. – Touch inspection: Touch the concrete surface with your hand to feel whether its smoothness and hardness are uniform. If the surface feels consistent and there is no local softness or over-hardness, it can also indicate to a certain extent that the compaction effect is uniform and meets the quality standards. – Test block test under the same curing conditions: During the concrete construction process, make test blocks that are cured under the same conditions as the actual construction concrete. At the specified age (such as 7 days, 28 days), the compressive strength of the test block is tested, and the test results are compared with the design strength grade. If the strength of the test block can reach or exceed the design strength according to the expected growth curve, it means that the compaction operation of the trowel machine has no adverse effect on the strength of the concrete, and the compaction effect meets the quality standards. – On-site rebound-core drilling comprehensive method evaluation: Combined with the rebound hammer test and core drilling sampling, the strength of the on-site concrete structure is comprehensively evaluated. The rebound hammer is used to quickly screen out areas that may be insufficient in strength, and then core drilling sampling is performed on these areas for verification. If the overall strength of the on-site concrete meets the design requirements, and the strength distribution in different areas is relatively uniform, it means that the compaction effect of the trowel machine is good and meets the quality standards.

In the field of construction, concrete laser levelers (concrete laser leveling machines or concrete laser levelers) have become key equipment for improving the efficiency and quality of concrete construction. With the continuous advancement of global infrastructure construction and the growing demand for high-precision construction in the construction industry, the market size of concrete laser levelers continues to expand. According to market research reports, the global market size of concrete laser levelers is expected to reach US$1.76 billion in 2025, with an annual growth rate of approximately 11.4%. In order to give full play to the effectiveness of concrete laser levelers and extend their service life, it is crucial to optimize the use environment. Before the operation of the concrete laser leveler, it is crucial to ensure that the construction site is clean and free of debris. Stones, wood, metal scraps and other debris in the site will not only hinder the normal operation of the equipment, but may also damage key components of the equipment, such as the leveling work head and walking tires. For example, if sharp stones remaining in the site are drawn into the walking mechanism of the laser leveler, it may cause the tires to be scratched and deviate, affecting the stability and walking accuracy of the equipment. At the same time, the construction site should be initially leveled so that the ground slope and undulation are within the range that the equipment can adapt to. Generally speaking, the concrete laser leveling machine is suitable for slopes within a certain range. If the site slope exceeds the specified range, it may cause the center of gravity of the equipment to be unstable, affect the leveling accuracy, and even cause safety accidents. In order to ensure the safety of construction personnel and equipment, a clear safety warning area should be set up around the concrete laser leveling machine operation area. Set up warning signs, such as "Construction site, no entry for idle people" and "Pay attention to equipment operation", and set up warning tapes to clearly divide the equipment operation range. Especially in construction sites where multiple types of work are cross-operated, prevent other personnel or equipment from mistakenly entering the operation path of the laser leveling machine to avoid collision accidents. For example, in the construction of basement floors in large commercial complexes, due to the complex construction space and frequent exchanges between personnel and equipment, a clear safety warning area can effectively reduce the probability of accidents. At the same time, arrange special personnel to be responsible for safety inspections to ensure the effectiveness of the warning area and promptly dissuade personnel and equipment from entering illegally. Response to high temperature environment: In high temperature environment, the engine of the concrete laser leveler is prone to overheating, resulting in power reduction and increased wear of parts. When the ambient temperature exceeds 35℃, the load of the engine cooling system increases significantly. At this time, the maintenance of the engine cooling system should be strengthened, and the coolant level should be checked before daily operation. If it is insufficient, add coolant that meets the specifications in time. Clean the dust and debris on the surface of the radiator regularly to ensure that the heat dissipation air duct is unobstructed. Compressed air or high-pressure water gun (pay attention to moderate water pressure to avoid damage to the radiator fins) can be used for cleaning. For example, when constructing in an open-air parking lot with high temperature in summer, if the engine temperature is found to be too high, the equipment should be immediately moved to a cool place to shut down and cool down, and never force operation under high temperature. At the same time, consider installing a sunshade for the equipment to reduce the impact of direct sunlight on the equipment and reduce heat accumulation in the engine compartment. Response to low temperature environment: In a low temperature environment (such as an ambient temperature below 5℃), the viscosity of the lubricating oil of the concrete laser leveler increases and the fluidity becomes poor, which will make it difficult to start the equipment and increase the wear of various moving parts. Therefore, before construction in a low-temperature environment, lubricating oil and hydraulic oil suitable for low-temperature working conditions should be replaced, such as using low-freezing point engine oil and hydraulic oil. Before starting the equipment, a preheating device can be used to preheat the engine, such as an electric heating water jacket, a fuel heater, etc., to improve the starting performance of the engine. At the same time, the battery of the equipment should be kept warm and protected, and a battery warming sleeve can be installed to prevent the battery from degrading due to low temperature and affecting the start of the equipment. For example, in the construction of industrial plant floors in the northern winter, taking good low-temperature protection measures for the equipment can ensure the normal operation of the concrete laser leveling machine and improve construction efficiency. High humidity environment protection: High humidity environment can easily cause the metal parts of the concrete laser leveling machine to rust and corrode, especially when constructing in coastal areas or rainy seasons. In order to cope with high humidity environments, the equipment should be parked in a dry place, and try to choose indoors or in a place with a rain shelter. If it is unavoidable to work in a humid environment, anti-rust oil can be applied to the surface of the equipment, especially parts that are prone to rust, such as the frame, chassis, and walking mechanism. Check the electrical circuits regularly to prevent short circuits caused by moisture. Use an insulation resistance tester to detect the insulation performance of the electrical circuits and deal with problems in a timely manner. For the battery of the equipment, keep it clean and dry, check the electrolyte level and density regularly, and add distilled water in time to ensure good battery performance. For example, if the laser leveling machine used for a long time in a high humidity environment does not pay attention to rust prevention, the frame may rust and reduce strength in a short time, affecting the safety and service life of the equipment. Moisture-proof measures: When the concrete laser leveling machine is idle, effective moisture-proof measures should be taken. Desiccant, such as quicklime, silica gel desiccant, etc., can be placed at the equipment parking place to absorb moisture in the surrounding air and reduce humidity. For key components of the equipment, such as laser transmitting and receiving devices, electrical control cabinets, etc., moisture-proof covers can be used for protection to prevent moisture intrusion. During construction in the rainy season, if the equipment is exposed to rain for a long time, the moisture on the surface of the equipment should be wiped dry with a dry cloth in time after the operation, and the equipment should be fully inspected to ensure that no moisture enters the equipment. For example, in the construction site in the rainy season in the south, doing a good job of moisture-proofing the equipment can effectively reduce equipment failures caused by moisture. Concrete laser leveling machines usually operate at construction sites with a lot of dust, and a large amount of dust can damage the key components of the equipment. To reduce the impact of dust, a high-efficiency air filter can be installed at the air inlet of the equipment to filter dust particles in the air and ensure that the air entering the engine and hydraulic system is clean. Clean the air filter regularly. Depending on the dust concentration at the construction site, generally clean or replace the filter element every 50-100 hours of work. At the same time, protect the laser transmitting and receiving devices of the equipment to prevent dust from adhering to the lens and affecting the transmission of the laser signal. A dust cover can be installed or the lens can be wiped regularly with a clean soft cloth. In addition, when the equipment is operating, try to avoid staying in areas with severe dust for a long time to reduce the erosion of dust on the equipment. For example, in the floor construction of a cement plant, the dust concentration is extremely high. Strengthening dust protection measures can effectively extend the service life of the concrete laser leveling machine. For electric concrete laser levelers, stable power supply is the key to the normal operation of the equipment. Before connecting to the power supply, check whether the power supply voltage meets the equipment requirements. The rated voltage fluctuation range of general equipment should be controlled within ±10%. If the voltage is too high or too low, it will affect the performance of the equipment motor and even burn the motor. You can use a voltmeter to regularly check the power supply voltage to ensure that the voltage is stable. At the same time, ensure that the capacity of the power supply line is sufficient to avoid safety accidents caused by voltage drop or line heating due to line overload. For temporary electricity use at the construction site, wiring should be carried out in accordance with relevant specifications, using a three-phase five-wire system and equipped with a leakage protector to ensure safe electricity use. For example, in the indoor floor construction of large shopping malls, if the power supply is unstable, the motor speed of the laser leveler may be uneven, affecting the leveling accuracy. Fuel-fired concrete laser levelers need to use high-quality fuel to ensure the normal operation of the engine. You should choose fuel that meets the equipment's required grades. For example, diesel engines generally use 0 or -10 diesel, and lower grades of diesel should be used in low temperature environments. Poor-quality fuel may contain impurities and moisture, which can cause the engine's fuel injectors to become clogged, combustion to be incomplete, reduce engine power, increase fuel consumption, and even damage the engine. Purchase fuel from regular gas stations and clean the fuel tank regularly to prevent impurities precipitated at the bottom of the tank from entering the fuel system. At the same time, before adding fuel to the equipment, you can use a fuel filter for secondary filtration to ensure fuel cleanliness. For example, in highway construction in remote areas, if non-standard fuel is used, the engine of the concrete laser leveler may frequently malfunction, affecting the construction progress. If conditions permit, the concrete laser leveler should be stored indoors as much as possible. Indoor storage can effectively prevent the equipment from being eroded by natural factors such as wind, sun, and rain, and reduce the risk of paint damage on the surface of the equipment and rust on metal parts. The indoor storage environment should be kept dry, well ventilated, and at a suitable temperature. The general temperature should be controlled between 5℃ – 35℃, and the relative humidity should be controlled between 40% – 70%. When storing indoors, the equipment can be parked on a dedicated bracket to avoid direct contact between the equipment and the ground, and to prevent the bottom parts from getting damp and rusting. At the same time, the equipment should be inspected and maintained regularly, such as checking the lubrication of the equipment, the connection of the electrical circuits, etc., to ensure that the equipment is in good standby condition. If the concrete laser leveling machine can only be stored outdoors, strict protective measures must be taken. First, build a rain shelter to ensure that the equipment is not directly exposed to rain. The material of the rain shelter should have good waterproof and sun-proof properties, such as color steel plates, canvas, etc. Cover the surface of the equipment with sun-proof and waterproof tarpaulin, and fix it firmly with ropes to prevent the tarpaulin from being blown away by the wind. At the same time, additional protection should be provided for key parts of the equipment, such as the engine, electrical control cabinet, laser transmitting and receiving devices, etc., which can be wrapped with a dedicated protective cover. During outdoor storage, the equipment should be inspected regularly, dust and debris on the surface of the equipment should be cleaned, and problems should be dealt with promptly. For example, in long-term outdoor construction sites, good storage protection of the equipment can effectively extend the service life of the equipment and reduce the occurrence of equipment failures.
