TITAN 900S high-pressure sand-lime brick and block making machine based on a high-capacity single-action hydraulic press with servo-drive for material cart, air-independent hydraulic system, and fully-automatic control system.
Sand-lime brick press is intended for the production of building materials using hydrated lime as the main binding agent with the further bricks’ and blocks’ hardening in autoclaves. In a possible variant of the embodiment, the press can be used with different raw materials for producing paving tiles and bricks.

TITAN 900S sand-lime brick machine can produce the following products:

• Sand-lime bricks (calcium silicate or silica-sand bricks);
• Sand-lime blocks (calcium silicate or silica-sand blocks);
• Paving tiles.

Titan 900S sand-lime brick machine is specifically designed for the mass-production of the sand-lime bricks and blocks. Its material cart has an upper puncheon and pneumatic grippers built-in. It provides the following functions:

1. Raw materials feeding;
2. Mold closing and force transfer during pressing;
3. Green brick clamping after unmolding;
4. Green brick transporting onto the folding table.

TITAN 900S sand-lime brick presses have a very compact design and they can be installed in workshops with a relatively small height and there no need for a deep pit.

The basis of the sand-lime brick machine accuracy is in using the traditional four-pillar design with very high stiffness of the main frame. In addition, we use pillars for guiding purposes. A proportional control system gives us the ability to achieve a high degree of accuracy not only for all linear movements but also during the pressing process.

Computer-controlled lower puncheon displacement optimizes the compaction process of the mixture, which ensures uniform compaction of the brick over its entire height. Advanced linear position and pressure sensors provide constant feedback in regard to the parameters affecting the product’s quality. For example, the height of the brick and the corresponding force required for compaction of the raw materials are constantly monitored, evaluated, and, if necessary, the corresponding adjustment is automatically made.

Our TITAN 900S sand-lime brick machines are equipped with the robotic arm and pneumatic grippers by default that gives our machines the ability to stack bricks and blocks onto curing wagons in a very accurate manner.  Robotic arms have proprietary control systems with user-friendly interfaces and they can be easily reprogrammed. Main presses are equipped with a special folding table to synchronize the recycling time of the robotic arm and the pressing machine.  To optimize the cycle time the green blocks of two press strokes are taken off by the robot in one working cycle and stacked onto the curing wagon.

By special request, it is possible to order TITAN 900S presses with a conventional conveyor and a gantry robot. The press produces the blocks in two rows. Then the blocks are taken off by the stacking device in four rows (output of two press strokes).

In the design of the main pressing machine, we use quick-exchange cassette molds accompanied by a special molds’ quick-change unit which drastically decreases servicing time.

All our brick machines have Siemens PLC for the computer control over the bricks’ and blocks’ production process. The operating personnel merely carries out monitoring and set-up functions.

Titan control system offers a lot of advantages:

• Automatic filling height regulation depending on the pressing force.
• The precise approach of the filling and pressing position is ensured by the hydraulic positioning of the punches.
• Consideration of special cycles for “defective” blocks.
• Shorter cycle times and higher block quality due to the optional integrated wagon and block height sensing system.
• Optional interfaces in several languages to a master control system.
• The entry of all production data via a central operating terminal using a touch screen.
• The detailed screen display faults and warnings in plain text.
• Short setting times by means of production parameters stored in a database.

• Maximum production capacity for sand-lime brick and block production;
• High quality of the products;
• It is possible to produce sand-lime blocks with a height up to 500 mm;
