. The process

1. Brick feeder with jib crane for manual loading. The operator loads an entire level of bases, as taken from the pack. The feeder includes the wetting pump and the device to turn the bases upside down.

5. Tower curing magazine with 7 levels, including the elevator with automatic pusher that loads the trays in the tower and the lowerator with automatic extractor, that picks the trays after curing

2. Feeding line of bases and reinforcement. It includes the framework station, with suitable front loader for bars and lattice, consisting of 16 motorised chains.

6. Demoulding station includes the mobile self-propelled carriage on its own gantry single track, with extractor designed to extract from the head the row of items, one tray at a time. It includes motorised brusher and the device to distribute the release oil on cleaned trays.

3. Initial head including elevator for empty trays, which automatically lifts the tray to the operative level, and the pusher with 8.5 m long bar which automatically moves over sideways and loads on the tray the dry reinforced bases

7. Final head with automatic station for recovering the cleaned trays, it includes the lowerator that lowers one tray at a time to the lower level, where the tray is taken back to the initial head.

4. Casting and vibrofinishing station includes the self-propelled automatic batching carriage, mobile on its own gantry tracks, and the vibro-compacting devices. To manage various shapes of bases, a suitable pneumatic device automatically descends and moves against the free side of the bases, automatically adapting to the real width of the bases, to assure stability and alignment of the items, during vibro-compacting.

8. Unloading line with jib crane for manual stacking. The items extracted by the extractor are automatically moved into the motorised belt that takes them and aligns them for unloading. Unloading is performed sideways by an 850 cm long bar, which transfers the row of items from the motorised belt to the unloading table. The unloading table consists of a motorised set of 16 parallel belts, with stainless steel slats, that guide and collect forward the lines of items. At the end of the belts, using the jib crane by using suitable interchangeable forks (based on the type of item) the operator picks the finished product and stacks it, ready for transport to destination.

. The process

1. Initial head, including the elevator for empty formwork, which automatically lifts them one at a time to the operative level. In this work station the first operator positions in the formwork the shuttering and reinforcement, helped by the second operator for the heavier reinforcements.

2. Casting and vibrofinishing station, includes the self-propelled batching carriage, automatic, mobile on its own gantry tracks, and the vibro-compacting devices for the formwork.

3. Tower curing magazine, with 7 levels,includes the elevator with automatic pusher and the lowerator with automatic extractor.

4. Shakeout station, includes the self-propelled carriage with suitable picking and stacking Clamps, suitable for de-moulding and stacking 8 items at a time.

5. The Clamps are operated by the third operator. Cleaning station of empty formwork, includes the lowerator for empty formwork, which automatically lowers one formwork at a time to the lower level, where they are loaded onto a suitable conveyor belt that takes them back in the initial head.

. Designed To Perform

The machinery is designed to produce all-concrete items, specifically lintels and lattice girder beams. Special “U” section metal formwork is used, to contain and mould the concrete until its hardening.

. The system is designed to produce prestressed lintels at industrial level specifically prestressed brick-cement lintels

These items feature a reinforced concrete core, embedded into a brick shell. The brick shell consists of a well-aligned set of equal modules, up to 50cm long, in bricks, called “rafter shaping blocks” or “bottom bases”. Brick-cement items have their own specific features.

In general:

they improve the structure’s soundproofing and thermal insulation
they improve the structure’s breathability
they improve aesthetics in “exposed brickwork”.

Technically:

it is correct to match normal brickwork items (interposed filler blocks, hollow bricks) with these specific structural brick-cement items: both have the same hygroscopic behaviour and this prevents dark spots that appear on the plaster in correspondence to all-concrete items due to moisture changes
it is required to prevent reinforcements from coming in contact with the brick shell: in full compliance with standard EN15037, which requires minimum concrete enclosure around reinforcements to protect them from oxidation.

Carrousel System – OCTOPUS

DESIGN

. Carrousel system for precast concrete wall panels and floors

This carrousel system is designed and well-tested to industrially produce cement slabs, tilt-up double-slabs and sandwich/solid concrete panels. This highly automated system produces structural precast and curtain, with standardized format, having a modest size, according to the dimension of the steel pallets.

The carousel system consists of a flat circuit for steel pallets (formworks). Each formwork has overall dimensions of 4 m x 12.5 m, and has a work surface consisting of a single flat metal plate, on which side boards and shuttering are freely laid, up to 20 cm high.
We propose a plant with 48 forms, 40 of which are housed in the store, which consists of 4 towers with 10 levels.

. Precast element Production

The typical production of precast elements includes:

The solid panel, consisting of a solid concrete casting, with 12 cm thickness

The slab, consisting of a concrete plate, max. 6 cm thickness, reinforced with girder lattices up to 20 cm high

The double-slab, consisting of a pair of concrete plates, reinforced with girder lattices up to 20 cm high.

Furthermore, the system is already set up for the production of sandwich panels.
The Sandwich Panel consists of three layers, with a final thickness of 20 cm.

The first layer consists of a 6 cm thick concrete casting
onto which is placed an 8 cm layer of light material (polystyrene)
onto which is placed a second 6 cm thick concrete layer.
Two reinforcement stages and two casting stages are provided for each formwork to produce Sandwich Panels.
