Complete Production Process with MAIKONG Semi Automatic Brick Making Machine
Efficient Five-Stage Production
The MAIKONG semi automatic brick making machine operates within a streamlined production process designed for maximum efficiency and consistent quality:
Material Batching and Preparation: Raw materials (cement, sand, crushed stone or flyash) are discharged to the mixer according to the optimal formula.
Mixing Section: Materials are evenly mixed with water in the 350L pan mixer (upgradable to 500L) for consistent texture.
Block Forming: Mixed materials are sent to the mold case via conveyor. Under PLC computer control, hydraulic transmission and vibration create perfectly shaped blocks.
Automatic Stacking: After demolding, green bricks are unloaded to pallets and conveyed to the stacker.
Curing Section: Wet products are transported by trolley or forklift to open space for proper curing.
Recommended Raw Material Formula
For optimal brick quality and strength, we recommend the following material proportions:
