Stock brick
Cement stock bricks are commonly manufactured in South Africa market by stock brick making machine These grey color cement bricks are often applied in building projects for inner walls or cavity walls via plastering. Normally the stock bricks are cured to achieve 7Mpa strength for single storey buildings. Some brick factories adjust the recipe to gain 14Mpa strength for special purpose. Popular size stock bricks is 210×100×70mm which is widely accepted and used in various construction projects. However, it's important to note that there may be variations in size depending on the manufacturer and specific requirements of the project. These concrete bricks are typically made from a mixture of cement, sand, crushed stones and water, which is compressed and then cured to form solid bricks.
Stock bricks manufacturing process
Cement stock bricks are known for their strength, durability, and affordability, making them a popular choice for many construction applications, including building walls, houses, and other structures. They are versatile and can be used for both load-bearing and non-load-bearing walls.
To manufacture cement stock bricks using a stock brick making machine, you can follow these general steps:
Raw material preparation: Obtain the necessary raw materials, including cement, sand, and water. The cement-to-sand ratio typically used for stock bricks is 1:5.
Mixing: Use a concrete mixer to thoroughly mix the cement and sand. Gradually add water while mixing until you achieve a uniform consistency. The mixture should be moist but not too wet.
Cement brick production: Machine will automatically compress the mixture into the desired size and shape of the stock brick. This process may involve a combination of pressing, vibration, and compacting, demolding etc. depending on the specific machine.
Brick curing: Once the bricks are formed by the machine, they need to be cured to gain strength. The curing process involves keeping the bricks in a moist and controlled environment for a specific duration, typically around 7 to 14 days. This allows the cement to hydrate and the bricks to harden. Curing methods can include stacking the bricks and covering them with plastic sheets or spraying them with water periodically.
Brick drying: After the curing period, the bricks should be allowed to dry. This can be done by exposing them to air and sunlight, preferably in a well-ventilated area, for several days. Ensure they are kept protected from rain or excessive moisture during the drying process.
Quality control: Inspect the cured and dried stock bricks for any defects, such as cracks or deformities. Remove any defective bricks from the batch.
Packaging and storage: Once the stock bricks are dry and inspected, package them appropriately for storage or transportation. Common packaging options include pallets or wooden crates.
It's important to note that the specific process may vary depending on the type and model of the stock brick machine used. Therefore, it's recommended to refer to the machine manufacturer's instructions for detailed guidance.

Find a quality cement brick machine
To produce cement stock bricks, it's very very important for brick manufacturers to find a quality cement brick machine. Below are several important features needs to be considered:
1) Production height:
Check with manufacturer for machine production height limitation for the maximum and minumum height both. Ensure the brick production height can fullfil your demends;
2) Capacity: Determine the production capacity you require. Consider the number of bricks need to produce per day or per hour. Choose a machine that can meet your daily production capacity;
3) Automation Level: The automation level of brick production line depends on how the wet brick blocks are handled. There are several handling system available on the market and the most popular and economic solution is using stacker. That means after stacking, wet bricks can be transferred to curing area by hydraulic trolley or forklift. This solution can be added with independent offline brick palletizing system so as to save labor cost and avoid management headache. In developed countries such as Europe or USA people prefer fully automatic brick production line using elevator, lowerator and finger car for complete brick manufacturing process. This greatly improve the entire procedure to highest automation level;
4) Machine Size:Evaluate the available space to accommodate the machine. Consider the dimensions and weight of the machine to ensure it fits your working area'5) Durability and Maintenance: Look for a brick making machine that is built with high-quality materials, ensuring durability and longevity. Additionally, consider the availability of spare parts and after-sales service support, as well as the ease of maintenance;6) Cost: Set a budget and compare prices from different suppliers. Consider the overall value for money, taking into account the quality, features, and support provided by the manufacturer;
