Compact screed

Allen Engineering has developed its new E-Screed for use in confined pour areas. This unit is driven by a high-frequency electric motor that is said to be reliable and durable, with power from a re-chargeable, high-performance 36V battery that can be replaced on-site. The no-maintenance motor is precisely regulated with a variable speed controller and the battery delivers charge-anytime performance over 1500+ life cycles.

The no-maintenance motor is precisely regulated with a variable speed controller and the battery delivers charge-anytime performance over 1500+ life cycles. Of course, like every Magic Screed, it's precision engineered to provide easy single operator strike-off of concrete with uniform vibration across the entire blade. It's fast, easy to use and the green way to strike-off virtually any size concrete pour.
