The MKG Power Trowel Machine is built for professional contractors who need a flawless concrete finish with less manual effort and faster results. Designed for precision and durability, this concrete power trowel machine delivers smooth, level, and long-lasting concrete surfaces in industrial, commercial, and infrastructure projects.
MKG’s trowel range is engineered with advanced technology, ensuring balance, consistent performance, and operator comfort. It’s the ideal choice for contractors aiming to enhance surface quality and productivity on every job site.
Reliable Finishing for Concrete Surfaces
Mixing concrete by hand is not only time-consuming but also leads to uneven strength. A concrete mixer machine eliminates this by ensuring a precise ratio of cement, sand, and aggregates, leading to improved bonding and structural stability. The rotational motion of the drum creates continuous lifting and dropping action, producing uniform consistency within minutes.
MKG’s mixers are available with and without a hydraulic hopper, catering to both small contractors and heavy construction setups. The machine’s design focuses on simplicity, easy operation, and minimal maintenance while maintaining industrial-grade reliability.

Key Features and Advantages
1. Powerful and Efficient Engine
The machine is equipped with an air-cooled, 4-stroke petrol engine that provides consistent torque for smooth rotation. Scientifically, a 4-stroke engine delivers higher fuel efficiency and stable combustion, making it ideal for long-duration flooring jobs where continuous power is essential.
2. Precision Rotor and Blade Design
With a 36-inch rotor diameter and four high-quality blades, this power trowel machine ensures even finishing without leaving marks or ridges. The blades are precisely angled to create uniform compaction and gloss across the surface. The wider blade arc reduces passes needed, improving work speed.
3. Dual Function – Trowel and Floater
MKG’s model acts as both a power trowel and concrete floater, letting users start with floating for leveling, then trowel for a polished finish — all in one machine. This dual capability reduces equipment costs and increases efficiency on site.
4. Robust Construction and Durability
The steel protection ring, balanced rotor assembly, and high-tensile components ensure the machine withstands long working hours in demanding environments. Its compact frame absorbs vibration, preventing blade wobble and enhancing operator safety.
5. Ergonomic Handle and Operator Control
The handle design gives maximum comfort and balance, allowing operators to control blade pitch and direction easily. Scientifically, reduced vibration and optimal weight distribution minimise hand-arm strain and improve precision over extended use.
Applications
Industrial and Commercial Flooring
Perfect for warehouses, factories, and large commercial spaces, the MKG cement power trowel machine delivers dense, glossy finishes that resist wear and dust formation – ideal for heavy-traffic environments.
Pavements, Driveways, and Parking Lots
When constructing outdoor concrete surfaces, finishing is key to durability and water drainage. The MKG trowel helps achieve a uniform texture that prevents cracking and improves visual appeal in pavements and driveways.
Large Slabs and Foundations
In large-scale infrastructure work, time is critical. The power trowel machine use in finishing slabs helps save up to 60% of manual labour time while ensuring better compaction and load-bearing performance.
Why a Power Trowel Matters in Concrete Work
Concrete naturally sets unevenly as it cures. Manual tools can only level small areas effectively, and inconsistent pressure can create surface weaknesses. A concrete power trowel machine uses centrifugal force to press the surface evenly, reducing micro air pockets and improving overall density.
Scientifically, this process enhances:
- Compressive strength: Compacting the top layer prevents weak spots.
- Surface uniformity: Even blade rotation eliminates trowel marks.
- Durability: Denser surfaces resist abrasion and moisture.
- Speed: Mechanical operation accelerates finishing by 3–4× compared to manual work.
That’s why professionals consider a power trowel machine an essential finishing tool rather than an optional upgrade.
Conclusion
The MKG Power Trowel Machine represents the perfect blend of performance, precision, and reliability. It ensures a professional-grade concrete finish while reducing time, labour, and cost. For anyone serious about achieving a smooth, durable surface — this is the best choice in cement power trowel machines.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is a power trowel machine used for?
A power trowel machine is used to smooth and level freshly poured concrete surfaces. It replaces manual finishing tools and helps achieve a dense, polished, and durable surface, especially on large slabs, floors, and pavements.
2. When should a power trowel be used after pouring concrete?
You can start using a power trowel once the concrete has set enough to support a person’s weight without leaving deep footprints — typically a few hours after pouring. Starting too early or too late can affect surface smoothness and strength.
3. What is the difference between a walk-behind and ride-on power trowel?
A walk-behind trowel like the MKG PT 36 is ideal for small to medium areas and offers precise control. Ride-on trowels are larger and more powerful, suited for massive floors where higher productivity and dual-rotor coverage are required.
4. Is a petrol or electric power trowel better?
Both have advantages. Petrol power trowels provide stronger torque and mobility for outdoor work, while electric power trowel machines are quieter and emission-free — better suited for indoor or enclosed spaces.
5. How do you maintain a power trowel for long-term use?
Clean the blades and guard ring after every use, check belt tension and oil regularly, and store it in a dry place. Timely maintenance keeps the trowel balanced and ensures consistent surface finishing over its lifespan.
