Introduction

Fly ash block making machines have revolutionized the construction industry by providing an efficient and environmentally friendly method for producing building blocks. Utilizing fly ash, a by-product from coal combustion, these machines contribute to waste management and reduce the need for traditional clay or concrete blocks.

Working Principle of Fly Ash Block Making Machine

The primary function of a fly ash block making machine is to mold and form blocks by compressing a mixture of raw materials. The fundamental components involved include a batching system, mixing system, molding system, and a block conveyor system.

Batching System

The batching system ensures precise measurement of raw materials, such as fly ash, sand, cement, and water. The blend typically consists of 70% fly ash, 20% sand, and 10% cement by weight.

Mixing System

This component homogenizes the raw materials into a consistent mixture. The mixing time generally spans 5 minutes, ensuring a uniform distribution of moisture and binding agents.

Molding System

The mixture is transferred into molds where it is compacted under high pressure, typically between 1000-1500 psi, to consolidate the mix and form blocks.

Block Conveyor System

After molding, the blocks are conveyed for curing. The curing process can take between 7 to 28 days, depending on the specific mixture and environmental conditions.

Process Flow

The process flow for fly ash block making is linear, involving the following steps:

1. Raw Material Batching
2. Mixing
3. Feeding into Molds
4. Pressing
5. De-molding
6. Curing
