How to choose Terrazzo tile machine?

Date: 2025-02-27 13:52:02

Terrazzo tile machine is the core equipment for producing terrazzo tiles. According to different dimensions such as molding process, degree of automation, pressure mode, etc., it can be subdivided into the following categories:

 

1. Classification by molding process

              

Category Name

Features and applicable scenarios

Technical advantages and limitations

Compression molding floor tile machine

The raw materials (cement, stone particles, pigments, etc.) are pressed into shape by high pressure in molds. It is suitable for diversified products such as standard bricks, antique bricks, special-shaped bricks, etc.

Advantages: high molding precision, high brick density, and controllable surface texture. Limitations: high mold cost.

Extrusion floor tile machine

The raw materials are continuously extruded into strips by a screw extruder and then cut into bricks. It is suitable for low-cost, large-scale production (such as ordinary floor tiles).

Advantages: high production efficiency and low energy consumption. Limitations: single texture, difficult to achieve stone-like effect.

2. Classification by degree of automation

 

Category Name

Features and applicable scenarios

Technology Comparison

Fully automatic CNC terrazzo floor tile machine

The PLC control system is used to automatically complete the processes of laying, pressing, demoulding, etc. Applicable scenarios: large factories, standardized production (such as 800×800mm large bricks).

Advantages: low dependence on manual labor and high yield rate.

Semi-automatic terrazzo floor tile machine

Manually assisted fabrication, demoulding, and automation of the pressing process. Applicable scenarios: small and medium-sized factories, customized production (such as colored mosaic tiles).

Advantages: High flexibility, low initial investment. Limitations: Low efficiency.

Features and applicable scenarios

Technology Comparison

Standard size floor tile machine

regular sizes from 300×300mm, 400×400mm to 600*600mm , with a thickness of 10-30mm. Home decoration, small industrial equipment

Fast production speed, usually 6-8 pieces per minute

Semi-automatic floor tile machine

Supports production of large panels of 800×800mm, 1200*600mm and above, with thickness up to 50mm. Requires a large-tonnage hydraulic system. Suitable for high-end scenes such as hotel lobbies and exhibition halls.

Advantages: Can produce high-end terrazzo slabs with high quality.

 

 

 

 

6. Special process equipment

Category NameInnovative Process and EffectTechnical Highlights

 

1. The vibration vacuum dehydration floor tile machine superimposes vibration and vacuum dehydration during the pressing process to reduce the pores in the brick body and improve the frost resistance. It is suitable for outdoor bricks in cold northern regions.

2. The double hydraulic cylinders of the double cylinder linkage floor tile machine are pressurized synchronously to ensure that the large-sized bricks are evenly stressed. It is used to produce special-shaped bricks and thickened engineering bricks. It solves the problem of insufficient edge density of traditional single-cylinder machines.

Terrazzo tile machine selection suggestions

 

When choosing a Terrazzo tile machine, you need to consider multiple factors, including production needs, cost budget, product positioning, and regional environment . The following are specific suggestions, sorted by priority:

 



 

1. Choose the equipment type according to the production scale

 

Production scale

Applicable models and configuration recommendations

Causes and cases

1. Large-scale mass production projects

-Fully automatic CNC hydraulic floor tile machine (such as double-cylinder linkage model)
-Supporting equipment : automatic material distribution system, intelligent curing kiln.

Reason : High degree of automation, single-shift output can reach more than 3,000 pieces, and labor costs are low.
Case : Batch production of 800×800mm full-body tiles for municipal engineering.

2. Small and medium-sized flexible production

-Semi -automatic hydraulic floor tile machine
- Supporting equipment : manual spreading car, simple maintenance area.

Reason : Low initial investment (about 100,000-300,000 yuan), suitable for small-batch customization (such as colorful mosaic tiles).
Case : Customization of 300×300mm antique tiles in the home decoration market.

3. Micro workshop/test line

-Mechanical pressure floor tile machine or second-hand equipment
- Ancillary equipment : small mixer, natural curing.

Reason : Very low cost (less than 50,000 yuan), suitable for trial production or low-end market.
Case : Production of permeable bricks in rural areas.

 



 

2. Matching process and machine model according to product positioning

 

Product Type

Core equipment selection

Technical points and cost analysis

1. High-end imitation stone tiles

- Compression molding CNC machine (pressure ≥ 20MPa)
- Optional : vacuum dehydration system, multi-color distributor.

Key points : High pressure ensures brick density, vacuum reduces pores, and imitation stone texture requires precision molds.
Cost : Mold fee is about 5000-20,000 yuan/set.

2. Ordinary terrazzo tiles

- Extrusion molding machine or low pressure hydraulic press (pressure 10-15MPa)
- Optional : single color fabric system.

Key points : The extrusion process is highly efficient, but the texture is single, suitable for the industrial market.
Cost : The cost of raw materials per brick is reduced by 30%.

3. Functional engineering bricks

-Vibration vacuum dehydration machine
-Optional : automatic feeder for antifreeze additives .

Key points : Vibration + vacuum improves compressive strength (≥C40) and frost resistance (≥F150).
Case : Outdoor square tiles in northern cities.

 



 

3. Selection of regional environmental adaptability

 

Regional characteristics

Equipment and process adjustment suggestions

Examples of technical solutions

1. Alpine regions

- Must choose vibration vacuum dehydration machine model
- Add antifreeze (such as CR-10T curing agent) to the raw materials.

Reason : Reduce the water absorption rate of bricks to avoid freeze-thaw damage.
Data : The water absorption rate of bricks after vacuum dehydration is ≤5%.

2. Rainy and humid areas

- Use high pressure molding machine (pressure ≥ 25MPa)
- Perform sealing and polishing treatment on the surface (such as epoxy penetration).

Reason : High-density brick body + sealing layer can prevent moisture and mildew.
Process : Add a second polishing process after pressing .

3. High salinity areas

- Choose corrosion-resistant alloy molds
. - Use alkali-resistant aggregates (such as quartz stone) in the raw materials.

Reason : Ordinary molds are prone to rust in saline-alkali environments, affecting the surface accuracy of the bricks.
