Assunto: Optimizing Your Brick Production Line: A Technical Quotation for HighCapacity Brick Making Machinery

1. ABERTURA ACIONADA POR PAINPOINT

Are you facing production bottlenecks that limit your output to under 10,000 tijolos por turno? Seu equipamento atual está consumindo 1520% more raw material due to inconsistent compaction, leading to a higher reject rate and wasted capital? Do frequent mechanical breakdowns force your plant to halt operations for 812 horas por semana, custando uma estimativa $2,500 in lost production and labor per incident?

Para gerentes de fábrica e empreiteiros de engenharia, o desafio é claro: balancing highvolume output with strict quality standards for compressive strength and dimensional accuracy. Can your existing machinery handle the shift from traditional clay to fly ash or concrete mixes without sacrificing cycle time? This quotation addresses the specific operational hurdles of raw material variability, alto consumo de energia, and mold wear that directly impact your bottom line.

2. VISÃO GERAL DO PRODUTO

This quotation is for a fully automatic hydraulic brick making machine designed for mediumtolarge scale commercial operations. The equipment integrates a fourcolumn hydraulic press with a servodriven material feeding system to produce solid, oco, and interlocking bricks from concrete, cinza volante, escória, or quarry dust.

Fluxo de Trabalho Operacional (5 Etapas principais):
1. Dosagem de materiais & Misturando: Automated weighbridge and twinshaft mixer ensure a homogenous mix with a moisture content of 68%.
2. Vibratory Feeding: The material is distributed into the mold box via a moving hopper, with a previbration cycle to eliminate air pockets.
3. Hydraulic Pressing: A 200ton main cylinder applies 1520 MPa of pressure for a dwell time of 35 segundos, ensuring high density.
4. Ejeção do Produto: The pressed brick is pushed onto a steel pallet by a secondary hydraulic cylinder.
5. Cura & Empilhamento: Pallets are transferred to a curing rack system (natural or steam) before automatic depalletizing and strapping.

Escopo de aplicação & Limitações:

• Escopo: Suitable for producing standard modular bricks (190x90x90 mm), blocos ocos (400x200x200 mm), and paving stones.
• Limitações: Not designed for extruded clay products or highmoisture (plástico) clay bodies. Maximum aggregate size is limited to 10 mm to prevent mold damage.
