INGCO CPV-RBV-II Pin Type/RB160-A- ROBEN Concrete Vibrator

The CPV-RBV-II Pin Type/RB160-A- ROBEN  is  a concrete vibrator used as a construction tool applied to remove air bubbles trapped inside poured concrete. These air bubbles, or voids, can weaken the concrete and compromise its strength and durability. By vibrating the concrete, the vibrator helps the entrapped air rise to the surface and escape, resulting in a denser, stronger, and more uniform concrete finish.

Components

The   concrete vibrator consists of  two main parts:

• Motor: Provides power to the vibrator. This can be an electric motor or a gasoline engine.
• Vibrating Probe: A slender, metal shaft inserted into the concrete. The probe houses an eccentric weight or hydraulic mechanism that generates the vibration. Sometimes referred to as a vibrator hose or vibrator head.

How it Works

1. Insertion: The vibrating probe is inserted into the freshly poured concrete at regular intervals. The depth of insertion will depend on the thickness of the concrete pour.
2. Vibration: The motor turns the eccentric weight or hydraulic mechanism inside the probe, creating a rapid vibration.
3. Air Bubble Removal: The vibration transmits through the concrete, causing the entrapped air bubbles to rise to the surface and escape. This process helps to consolidate the concrete particles and create a denser and stronger final product.
4. Movement: The probe is slowly withdrawn and re-inserted at different locations throughout the concrete pour to ensure even compaction.

Uses

Concrete vibrators are essential tools for various concrete construction projects, including:

• Foundations
• Slabs
• Beams and columns
• Walls
• Precast concrete elements

Using a concrete vibrator offers several benefits:

• Improved Strength: By removing air voids, concrete vibrators help to create a stronger and more durable concrete finish.
• Reduced Porosity: Vibration helps to reduce the number of air pockets in the concrete, which can improve its resistance to water infiltration and freezing/thawing cycles.
• Enhanced Surface Finish: Vibration can help to create a smoother and more uniform concrete surface

• Applications of the Concrete Vibrator

  The Concrete vibrator is widely used in various concrete construction projects to ensure a strong, dense, and uniform concrete finish. Here are some common applications:

  • Foundations: Proper vibration is crucial for foundations, as they support the entire structure. Air pockets can compromise the foundation’s stability.
  • Slabs: Concrete slabs for floors, driveways, patios, and other applications benefit from vibration to create a level, smooth surface and improve structural integrity.
  • Beams and Columns: These structural components need to be free of air voids to handle loads effectively. Vibrators help achieve this by eliminating air bubbles.
  • Walls: Concrete walls require proper compaction to resist cracking and ensure stability. Vibration is essential for achieving this.
  • Precast Concrete Elements: Precast concrete elements like pipes, panels, and blocks are often vibrated during manufacturing to ensure uniform density and strength.
