To Design and Develop Low Cost Automatic Wall Plastering Machine

摘要

The construction technique in all industrial countries of the world are characterised by a wide range of mechanisation. Construction is labor-intensive and is conducted in dangerous and inaccessible areas. Plastering is widely used as a finishing technology for both interior and exterior walls made from bricks, concrete or timber. Plastering of exterior walls provides heat insulation, sound absorption and protection against air pollution and weather. The application of plaster to interior walls improves the indoor climate by humidity regulation and serves the purpose of compensating inevitable tolerances of the brickwork, thus providing a clean, level surface for further finishing tasks. Special plaster material can also protect against fire or radiation. Although plastering is one of the most physically strenuous jobs in building construction it was not before the early fifties that machines were developed which supported this strenuous task. The first machines to be developed were automated mixers which made the task of manual plaster mixing obsolete Robots are widely used to help human workers in construction sites. Introduction of robotics and automation in this area started in the early 90s aiming to optimize equipment operations, improve safety and performance. Therefore the importance of construction robotics and automating the construction works has grown rapidly. The automatic wall plastering machine will help to save labor cost up to 85%, increase productivity by 10-15 times, get professional quality finishing in less time, reduce valuable time and project cost, manufacture automatic wall plastering machine in low cost etc.
