EXPANDED-CLAY ROUTE

Ceramsite lightweight product production line

Delivery lead time: 40–50 working days.

Ceramsite grading, absorption and moisture must be tested before feeding, mixing, moulding and finishing are selected. HENGDE configures this route after reviewing the actual aggregate and target product.

SIX-STEP PROCESS

Six route-specific process stages

  1. 01

    Test aggregate

    Confirm ceramsite grading, absorption and moisture before configuration.

  2. 02

    Meter components

    Dose the confirmed aggregate, binder and water inputs.

  3. 03

    Mix & mould

    Select mixing and moulding around the tested project recipe.

  4. 04

    Cure & demould

    Match curing and release conditions to the target product.

  5. 05

    Cut & finish

    Match cutting and finishing to the aggregate structure and required product dimensions.

  6. 06

    Handle & store

    Confirm the handling and storage method for the selected product and site.

PRODUCTION EQUIPMENT

Equipment modules for this production route

These modules introduce the core equipment. HENGDE develops the complete configuration from your product, material trials, output plan and factory layout.

PROJECT DELIVERY / TURNKEY SUPPORT

From local materials to an operating factory

HENGDE connects raw-material testing, factory planning, equipment manufacturing and site commissioning in one delivery plan. Our engineers develop the production route and machine interfaces, and our team prepares operators for production and maintenance. The proposal identifies the equipment, site preparation and services for your factory.

  1. 01

    Raw Material Testing

    Evaluate representative samples from the project location before selecting the final process.

  2. 02

    Formula Adjustment

    Adjust the formulation and material ratios against the test results and target product.

  3. 03

    Product & Process Selection

    Confirm product dimensions and the product-specific preparation, forming, curing and finishing process.

  4. 04

    Factory Layout Planning

    Coordinate land, buildings, storage, material flow, foundations and utilities.

  5. 05

    Production Line Customization

    Match capacity, automation, budget, moulds and process interfaces to the agreed factory scope.

  6. 06

    Equipment Manufacturing

    Prepare the agreed machines, tooling and controls against the approved configuration.

  7. 07

    Factory Acceptance

    Check applicable equipment and delivery scope before shipment.

  8. 08

    Packing & Shipping

    Coordinate packing, loading and destination requirements with the project shipping plan.

  9. 09

    Site Installation

    Install and connect the agreed equipment after site conditions are ready.

  10. 10

    Commissioning

    Check machine sequences and trial production with the selected materials.

  11. 11

    Operator Training

    Train operators in safe use, production sequence and routine maintenance.

  12. 12

    After-sales & Spare Parts

    Plan maintenance communication and spare-parts support for the installed equipment.

RAW MATERIAL OPTIONS

Local Raw Materials, Engineered into Your Production Plan

Ceramsite products use expanded-clay lightweight aggregate with a compatible binder system. Aggregate grading and water absorption affect the final process configuration.

Test the ceramsite aggregate

Review expanded-clay grading, density, moisture, absorption and supply consistency with the selected binder system.

Representative samples are needed before feeding, metering, mixing and finished-product equipment are selected.

Adjust water and mixing to the aggregate

Testing determines pre-wetting needs, water demand, batch sequence, mixer operation, mould filling and curing conditions.

Cutting and handling are then selected for the verified product geometry and cured condition.
