Birkenmayer, a leader in brick-making technology in South Africa, has incorporated an extremely robust machine frame design and vibration technology into three of its brick-making models, making them even more cost-effective and user-friendly.

The HB68, HB48, and HB33-models offer impressive output capacities of 120 000, 85 000, and 58 000 basic stock bricks per shift, respectively, thanks to international standard technologies.

(Boosting block production with precisely-engineered technology and smart implementation.)

For ease of operation, Birkenmayer has incorporated the latest in PLC (programmable logic controllers) technology into its brick-makers. Centralised PLCs control brick-making plants with minimal operator intervention, while manual controls are used for maintenance and alternative operating modes.

Furthermore, full supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) packages are available to accumulate and distribute historical records of recipes and machine operation, while providing on-screen operating features and functionality. This technology is extremely beneficial during changes in product runs on the machine.

Birkenmayer also offers the option of including secondary feed units for making coloured pavers. This eliminates the need for colouring throughout, resulting in substantial savings in pigments.
