Automatic plastering

Automatic plastering machine hire in Yaoundé.

SAFA Construction is among the first companies in Cameroon to hire out automatic plastering machines. The machine lays render in one steady pass: walls finished faster, a constant thickness, fewer hands needed.

The idea

From raw block to finished wall, in one pass.

It is a rendering machine mounted on a vertical mast. Mortar is loaded into its hopper, and the machine travels up and down the mast, spreading and pressing the plaster onto the wall in one even pass — a job normally done by hand with a trowel.

How it works

Four moves, repeated precisely.

  1. 01

    Mast set on the wall

    The machine's mast is placed plumb against the wall on level ground.

  2. 02

    Mortar in the hopper

    Your plaster or render mix is loaded into the machine's hopper.

  3. 03

    One steady pass

    The machine travels up the mast, pressing an even coat onto the wall.

  4. 04

    Move, repeat

    The unit shifts along the wall, strip by strip, until the face is done.

The machine's touch-screen control panel

Everything runs from the control panel: up, down and levelling. On set-up day, our crew walks yours through it.

FAQ

Your questions about the machine.

What is an automatic plastering machine?

It is a rendering machine mounted on a vertical mast. Mortar is loaded into its hopper, and the machine travels up and down the mast, spreading and pressing the plaster onto the wall in one even pass — a job normally done by hand with a trowel.

Is machine plastering faster than plastering by hand?

Yes. On a clear, straight wall a machine covers in a day what a team of masons covers in several, and the thickness stays the same from top to bottom. The exact gain depends on the wall, the render and site access — we estimate it during the site visit.

Is SAFA the first company in Cameroon to hire out these machines?

SAFA Construction is among the first companies in Cameroon to offer automatic wall-plastering machines for hire.

Who operates the machine?

Our crew delivers, assembles and checks the machine on site and shows your team how to run it safely. Ask us if you need an operator for the duration of the hire.
