Cement brick making machine, a mechanical equipment that uses various raw materials such as slag, slag, fly ash, stone powder, sand, stones, cement, etc. to produce cement bricks, hollow blocks or colored pavement bricks through scientific proportioning, water mixing, high-pressure pressing and other processes, plays an indispensable role in the modern construction industry. From its birth and development to the current technological innovation, the cement brick making machine has undergone an evolution from simple to complex, from manual to automatic, and has become an important component of building material production equipment.

Origin and Early Development

The history of cement brick making machines can be traced back to the 1970s. At that time, China introduced the eight hole rotary table gray sand brick machine from abroad, which used river sand and a small amount of fly ash mixed with cement or aged white ash to press gray sand bricks. However, this type of equipment can only press one brick at a time due to the rotation of the disc, resulting in low production capacity. Moreover, the pressure head has lower rigidity. When using a large amount of industrial waste fly ash, the exhaust of the product is insufficient, making it prone to delamination and unable to meet the requirements of the national wall reform and comply with the national industrial policies at that time.

In order to increase production and compensate for the problem of product delamination caused by insufficient exhaust, domestic mechanical engineering technicians have developed a crankshaft type double crank mechanical brick press. This device can press two bricks, three bricks, or even four bricks at a time. Through a special pre pressing buffer upper pressing head design and adjustable cutting depth, it meets the requirements of the national industrial structure policy at that time for using large amounts of fly ash as raw material to make bricks as a new type of wall material.

Technological innovation and blooming flowers

Entering the 21st century, with the development of building materials machinery, a variety of new wall material equipment are blooming. In 2005, with the continuous deepening of the national wall reform policy, the cement brick making machine in the new wall material equipment developed rapidly. During this period, various types of cement brick making equipment emerged, including mechanical compression molding, vibration molding, and hydraulic+vibration molding. The bricks produced by these devices are naturally cured or steam cured, so they are commonly referred to as "unburned bricks" by the public. The equipment used to produce these bricks is also called a "cement brick making machine".

The technology of cement brick making machines continues to advance, from manual to semi-automatic and then to fully automatic, achieving a leapfrog development. Modern cement brick making machines can not only quickly complete the mixing, forming, and curing of raw materials, but also optimize the production process and reduce energy consumption through intelligent control systems. Some advanced cement brick making machines also have environmental protection functions, such as waste recycling and noise control, further enhancing their competitiveness in the market.

Environmental Protection and Sustainable Development

In the context of global climate change, environmental protection and sustainable development have become key concerns for various industries. The cement brick making machine industry is no exception. In recent years, more and more cement brick making machine manufacturers have begun to adopt environmentally friendly materials and processes, such as using industrial waste and renewable resources to manufacture low-carbon bricks. In addition, the development of new high-performance concrete to enhance the durability and insulation performance of bricks has become a major trend in the industry. This not only reduces production costs, but also meets the national policy requirements for environmental protection.

Intelligence and multifunctionality

With the wave of Industry 4.0 sweeping across the globe, the automation and intelligence level of cement brick making machines has significantly improved. Modern cement brick making machines can not only achieve fully automatic operation, but also analyze and optimize data through sensors and artificial intelligence technology. Users can monitor the production process anytime and anywhere through their smartphones, adjust parameters in a timely manner, and improve production efficiency and product quality.

Meanwhile, modern cement brick making machines are also developing towards multifunctionality. Not only can different types of bricks be produced, but also different mold replacements can be made to adapt to market changes. For example, the new brick making machine can simultaneously produce different types of products such as standard bricks, colored bricks, permeable bricks, etc., thus meeting the needs of various buildings and horticulture.

Future prospects

In the future, with the continuous development of the global construction industry and the increasing environmental requirements, cement brick making machines will face more opportunities and challenges. On the one hand, with the continuous development of intelligent and automated technology, cement brick making machines will achieve more environmentally friendly production methods; On the other hand, with the intensification of global market competition and the diversification of consumer demands, cement brick manufacturers need to constantly innovate and upgrade their products to meet the different needs of the market.

In addition, with the deepening of the "the Belt and Road" initiative and the recovery of the global economy, cement brick machines will also usher in more export opportunities. These opportunities not only provide broader development space for cement brick manufacturers, but also inject new impetus into the sustainable development of the global construction industry.
