Do you want to know how concrete block machines work? What is their function?

Well, in this article we will try to delve into this aspect. And for this we are going to talk about what they are, how they work and what type of concrete block machines you will find in Poyatos. And it is that, in our factory we have machines to manufacture blocks of different powers.

Thus, we begin by explaining that the concrete block machines are a mechanism that is designed and prepared to manufacture concrete blocks of various characteristics and sizes. These have been evolving exponentially. From the first ones that were limited to simple metal molds, in which the mixture was made naturally, we have grown to the present day.

At present, in our block making factory, we have machinery that performs all tasks automatically. In addition to offering production values of the highest.

What mechanisms does a block making machine have?

Regarding the main parts or mechanisms that make up a block machine, we can talk about:

• The vibrating table.
• The mold with different cavities to vary the size and type of concrete blocks that are prepared compacting plates.
• The base on which to place the springs, the rails, and a cart to transport the compactor also appears.
• Etc.

What elements do we need to make the concrete block machines work?

When we refer to the basic elements in the operation of block making machines, we speak of three types:

• Aggregates
• Cement
• Water

Poyatos: we are leaders in block making machines

At Poyatos we have a range of presses made up mainly of 5 models. All of them with the possibility of working with wooden, plastic or metal production trays of variable size and integrated into a production line equipped with different options (for product transfer, palletizing, etc.) and with the purpose of responding to the requirements of each client.

Different models

Now, we are going to talk about the operation of our concrete block machines models. And, for this, we are going to start by differentiating between automatic, semi-automatic and manual block machines. In the latter case, it is the machine itself that moves, and it occupies excessive space in the factory.

In the automatic and semi-automatic, it is the trays that move. So that the production process is greatly facilitated and helps to increase the productive capacity. Our block machines are designed and prepared to manufacture concrete blocks of various characteristics and sizes.

How do automatic block making machines work?

Within the different types of concrete block machines there are different possibilities. Thus, for example, the circuit of the installation can be configured in line or in a U shape with a 5-height elevator and descender assembly that speeds up the transfer of the trays to the dryers by means of a forklift. Regarding palletizing, you can use a pneumatic or automatic palletizer, etc.

But, in addition, a block machine has various parts or mechanisms: vibrating table, the mould with different cavities to vary the size and type of concrete blocks that are prepared, the compacting plates, etc.

The base on which to place the springs, the rails, and a cart to transport the compactor also appears. We start with the two ranges that offer lower maintenance costs, require fewer installations, and still offer large productions.
