How to Pick Out the Right Road Marking Machine ?

If you want to do a road marking works, firstly, you need to figure out the following questions.
1.The Paint
In different countries or regions, there are different standards of road marking paints. You can buy very many different road marking paints in the market, these paints can be divided into three basic categories: thermoplastic, cold solvent ( water based ), two-component.
2.The Volume
For example, the total length of road marking lines, the period of construction.
3.The Line Type
Common line type include solid, dashed, zebra crossing, vibrating (convex) lines.
Under the applicable paints, the road marking machines were divided into three categories: thermoplastic road marking machine, cold paint road marking machine and two-component road marking machine. In each category, according to the construction efficiency, everyh type road marking machines were divided into three types: driving-type; self-propelled; hand-push, the driving-type has three size: big ; middle ; small. You can choose the right machine according to the volume of your work. For example, if you have a long highway that need to mark, using thermoplastic paint, you'd better buy a driving-type thermoplastic road marking machine.
In addition, if you use thermoplastic road marking paint, in addition to the thermoplastic marking machine, you'd better buy a pre-heater. Pre-heaters are matched with thermoplastic road marking machine, and used for melting thermoplastic paint, saving fuel energy and heating time, improving the construction efficiency.
Generally, the road marking machine can do both the solid line and the dashed line, if you want to do the vibrating (convex) lines, you just need to change the marking shoe.
Meantime you also need to understand some auxiliary equipment, the auxiliary equipment can effectively reduce the overall cost of the road marking construction, improve the road marking construction efficiency and quality, increase the road marking construction safety and environmental protection.
