Frequently Asked Questions

A block machine is equipment that makes concrete blocks automatically. It works by putting a mix of cement, sand, and water into a mould — then using vibration and pressure to compact it into a strong, uniform block. The finished block comes out of the mould ready for curing. Poyatos machines do this process automatically — so one operator can produce hundreds of blocks every hour without heavy manual work.

There are three types — manual, semi-automatic, and fully automatic. Manual machines require the most labour. Semi-automatic machines like the Poyatos Prima handle the pressing automatically but still need some manual work for loading and unloading. Fully automatic machines like the Poyatos Syncro do almost everything automatically — one operator can run the entire line. The right type depends on your budget, your market, and how many blocks you need per day.

The five things to consider are: how many blocks you need per day, what type of blocks your market needs, your available plant space, your budget, and the technical skills of your team. At Poyatos, our engineers help you work through all five — and recommend the right machine for your specific situation. Contact us and we will give you honest advice for free.

Daily maintenance includes cleaning, lubrication, and checking the mould condition. Weekly checks cover the vibration system, hydraulics, and electrical connections. Monthly, you should inspect all wear parts and calibrate the dosing system. Poyatos provides a full maintenance guide with every machine — and our technical team is available 24/7 if you need help or spare parts.

The Prima is best for first-time plant owners and markets with limited electrical infrastructure or technical skills. It is semi-automatic and the most affordable machine in our range — ideal for Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America. The Syncro is best when you need more output and full automation. It is easy to maintain and a great step up from the Prima. If you are unsure, contact our team — we will ask you a few simple questions and tell you which one fits your situation.
