Hollow blocks

Concrete blocks with cavities, made with hollow-block mould configurations.

Three grey concrete hollow blocks with two rectangular cavities each.

About this product

Hollow concrete blocks are formed on the QT5-15 with a hollow-block mould: the mould sets the block size and the cavity layout, and hydraulic mould movement combined with vibration forms each block on a pallet.

General applications

  • Masonry walls and partitions
  • General building and boundary walls

Suitability for a specific use depends on the product specification confirmed for your project.

Configuration

Dimensions, availability and output are confirmed for each project — not fixed by this page.

  • Product dimensions are set by the mould fitted to the QT5-15, so they depend on the moulds confirmed for your order.
  • Availability, achievable output and product specifications are confirmed per project; none are guaranteed by this page.
  • Changing to a mould of a different product height requires adjusting the machine before production.

Production

How it is made

Every product type follows the same connected process on the QT5-15 line.

Production details
  1. Batching

    The PLD1200 three-bin batching station prepares aggregate for transfer.

  2. Mixing

    An 8 m conveyor feeds the batched material to the JS500 mixer.

  3. Feeding

    Mixed material travels by conveyor to the main machine hopper.

  4. Moulding

    The QT5-15 combines hydraulic mould movement with vibration.

  5. Transfer

    The pallet feeder and block conveyor move formed products out of the moulding area.

  6. Stacking

    The stacker handles loaded pallets before the products go to curing.
