Concrete Block and Non-Fired Brick Making Machine Line
Brick and block making machine lines that press cement, aggregates and industrial by-products into hollow blocks, bricks and pavers — no firing and no steam curing, from semi-automatic to fully automatic.
Brick Making Machines and Block Lines We Supply
Concrete Block Production Process
Batching → mixing → forming on the block machine → board lifting and transfer to curing → curing → board lowering and stacking → finished blocks to the yard.
Brick and Block Making Machine Equipment
At the centre of the line is a block making machine that combines vibration with hydraulic pressing under PLC control. Each forming cycle takes 12–20 seconds. The line around it includes a batching machine, a mixer, an elevator system for production boards, a transfer car (finger car) to and from the curing chambers, curing chambers, and a lowerator with a cuber to stack the finished blocks.
Blocks, Bricks and Pavers: One Machine, Many Products
Changing the mould switches the machine to another product:
- hollow blocks, 390 × 190 × 190 mm
- standard bricks, 240 × 115 × 53 mm
- perforated bricks
- paving bricks and permeable pavers
- ASTM C90 (US) covers hollow and solid loadbearing concrete masonry units made from hydraulic cement, water and mineral aggregates, in normal-weight, medium-weight and lightweight classes.
- EN 771-3 (Europe) specifies aggregate concrete masonry units with dense and lightweight aggregates.
- IS 2185-1 (India) specifies hollow and solid concrete blocks for load-bearing and non-load-bearing walls.
Tell us the block sizes and the standard your market uses: they decide the moulds, the mix and the compaction.
Raw Materials and Industrial By-Products
Besides cement, sand and crushed stone, the mix can take industrial by-products such as fly ash and slag — lowering material cost and putting local waste to use.
Curing: No Firing, No Steam
Blocks gain strength by curing in curing chambers — no kiln, no autoclave and no steam boiler. That keeps the investment low and the plant simple to run, so the plant starts earning quickly.
Semi-Automatic or Fully Automatic
We configure the line to your output and budget: a semi-automatic line with manual handling for a first plant, or a fully automatic line with board elevators, transfer cars and automatic stacking for high volume. Block lines are a common first investment in Africa and Central Asia, where local block demand is high.
Capacity, Site and Project Timeline
Lines are commonly built for 100,000–200,000 standard bricks a day, or 15,000–30,000 hollow blocks (390 × 190 × 190 mm) a day — about 30–60 million bricks a year.
- Delivery: a standard block machine in 30–45 days, a customised machine in 50–70 days, a complete line in 2–3 months
- Installation and commissioning: usually 2–3 engineers on site for 1–2 months
- Site: about 0.4–0.7 ha (6–10 mu) for a small line; 1–2 ha (15–30 mu) with 2,000–6,000 m² of buildings for a fully automatic line
These are typical figures; your output, products and site decide the final configuration and schedule.
Send us your target output, products and local materials, and we will propose a configuration. For other plants, see our building material production lines.
Which Brick Line Fits Your Project?
| Concrete block / non-fired brick | Autoclaved brick | Fired clay brick | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Raw materials | Cement, sand, crushed stone, fly ash, slag | Fly ash or sand with lime | Clay, shale, coal gangue, fly ash |
| Forming | Vibration and hydraulic pressing | High-pressure pressing | Vacuum extrusion |
| Curing / firing | Curing chambers, no steam | Autoclave (high-pressure steam) | Tunnel kiln |
| Investment | Lowest; quick start | Medium to large | Largest; kiln built on site |
| Typical buyer | County-level — local producers and small building-materials businesses supplying housing in their area | Government-backed — projects that consume fly ash and other industrial solid waste, often next to power plants or in circular-economy parks | Commercial-scale — large building-materials groups supplying urban housing |
| Best for | A first plant for the local market, 30–60 million bricks a year | Large-scale use of fly ash or sand, 30–120 million bricks a year | Large clay-based plants, 60–100 million bricks a year |

Frequently Asked Questions
What can one machine produce?
Hollow blocks, standard bricks, perforated bricks, paving bricks and permeable pavers. Changing the mould switches the product.
Do the blocks need firing or steam curing?
No. Blocks cure in curing chambers without firing or steam, so the plant needs no kiln, autoclave or boiler.
Which raw materials can be used?
Cement with sand and crushed stone, plus industrial by-products such as fly ash and slag. Send us your local material information and we will check the mix.
Semi-automatic or fully automatic?
Both. A semi-automatic line keeps the first investment low; a fully automatic line adds board elevators, transfer cars and automatic stacking for higher output with fewer workers.
Should I choose a block line, an autoclaved brick line or a fired clay brick line?
It depends on your market, raw materials and budget. Block lines need the lowest investment; autoclaved brick lines use fly ash or sand at scale; fired clay brick lines suit large clay-based plants. See the comparison above, or send us your project details for a recommendation.
What output can a line reach?
Commonly 100,000–200,000 standard bricks a day, or 15,000–30,000 hollow blocks (390 × 190 × 190 mm) a day — about 30–60 million bricks a year.
How long does a project take, and who do you send?
A standard block machine ships in 30–45 days, a customised one in 50–70 days, and a complete line in 2–3 months. We usually send 2–3 engineers for 1–2 months of installation and commissioning.
What do you need to prepare a quotation?
Your products and sizes, target output per day, available raw materials, project location and planned timeline.
