The heart of a sand lime brick making plant
The different types of Masa sand lime brick presses are designed for different production capacities. The actual capacity depends on various factors, such as the individual raw material mix and the size of the finished products – from small bricks to large-sized plain elements. Freely programmable automatic brick setting machines are available for the press plants.

Variety of products
The variety of sand lime products depends on the moulding tools. It is possible to manufacture bricks with eg. chamfers or holes for handling. Sand lime bricks with tongue and groove, with impressed installation channels or other cavities are some examples only from a wide range of possibilities.

It's a long way from raw materials through the mixture to the finished stone. Many plant components are involved in this process. Only if the system components are matched, can one be assured of a smooth process and economical operation of the block and paver making plant.
The manufacturing of autoclaved aerated concrete products demands high standards for mixing and dosing of the aggregates, the control of the fermentation process and the control of each production step. Masa's aerated concrete installations are proven advanced technology processes, designed according to customers specific requirements. This approach allows complete solutions to ensure highly efficient, optimised processes resulting in consistent final product quality.
