INDIGENOUS EQUIPMENT FOR MIXING OF TILE ADHESIVE

Mixing tile adhesive using heavy duty mini drilling machine with appropriate modification to suit the
requirement. Stirrer will be fabricated locally under proper supervision.

For appropriate mixing of tile adhesive, the heavy duty mini drilling machine GD25M, KPT make, is
modified to suit the requirement and stirrer fabrication is done locally at the respective sites.

Advantages

• Machine spare parts are locally available

• Saves time
• Easy and fast mixing
• More Durable(Life cycle cost is less)
• User friendly and make homogeneous mix

Disadvantages

• Stirrer durability is less

 TILE STARTER

Earlier practice tile fixing started from plastered wall surface and floor tile cutting done for the purpose of
skirting tile fixing. Tiling is started from the parapet wall face.

Disadvantages
1. We need to cut and chip the floor tiles for the purpose of skirting tile fixing. So wastage of time,
manpower and material, and increase in debris volume
2. Cutting of floor tiles may damage the terrace waterproofing membrane

Benefits

• Future cutting of the floor tiles for the purpose of skirting tile fixing can be avoided. Hence saving
in manpower, material and time
• Cutting of floor tiles may damage the waterproofing membrane
• Wastage of tiles can be reduced. Savings on materials.
• Tile masons required for future cutting of the floor tiles for the purpose of skirting tile fixing can
be avoided. Hence saving in manpower.
• Saving in time.

Advantages

• Better aesthetic can be achieved

 TILE SHIFTING PLATFORM

In high raise building shifting of raw materials to various height is a difficult task. For this purpose all
material hoist has been used. But by using material hoist we are facing problems in loading and
unloading the materials and again shifting the materials from the unloading point to the end user point.
We have to engage huge manpower for this task.

To avoid all these problems we developed “Material shifting platform using trolleys”.

Here we extended the existing platform of the material hoist. We have developed a trolley which in turn
can be placed inside this platform with material loaded in the trolley. The same trolley loaded with
material can be shifted to various heights using the winch mechanism. After reaching the unloading floor
the trolley can be taken to the end user point and material can be unloaded. Here trolley is fitted with
wheels which is having locking arrangements. When trolley is loaded on the platform the wheel lock has
to be engaged so that it will not move when hoist is moving. After reaching the required height the wheel
lock can be removed and trolley can be shifted to the desired location.

Advantages
• Time saving
• Less manpower requirement
• Reduce the double handling of material
• Safe operation
• Less damage to the materials
• High production
