We have completed the shipment of the CBM 25-2 concrete block machine to Senegal. This shipment of our CBM 25-2 model, designed for concrete block and paving stone production, is part of İBAR MAKİNA’s international activities. In this article, we cover the shipment, the model’s production capacity and applications, and the key considerations when planning a production facility.
Shipment of the CBM 25-2 Machine to Senegal
At İBAR MAKİNA, we have been manufacturing machines and moulds for concrete product production in Çerkezköy, Tekirdağ, since 1978. We export to more than 30 countries with a product range that includes concrete block and paving stone machines, concrete pipe, box culvert and manhole machines, and concrete batching plants. The completed CBM 25-2 shipment to Senegal forms part of these international activities.
The shipment of a production machine is an important stage in an investment project. However, when planning the start of production, the facility layout, raw material preparation, mould selection and areas where products will be held after production should all be considered together. Addressing these factors in advance helps a business establish a workflow suited to its production targets.
Installation, operator training, maintenance and spare parts support are also standard services to consider when investing in machinery. Completion of the shipment to Senegal does not mean that installation or the start of production has been completed; these stages are assessed separately from shipment.
Features of the CBM 25-2 Concrete Block and Paving Stone Machine
The CBM 25-2 concrete block and paving stone machine has a production capacity of 10 concrete blocks or 25 paving stones per cycle. The model’s daily paving stone production capacity is specified as 500 m². The ability to produce both concrete blocks and paving stones with the same model allows businesses to consider production plans for different concrete products.
The basic principle of concrete product production is to place the prepared mix into a suitable mould and compact it into shape. While the mould determines the product’s shape, proper mix preparation and consistent production conditions are important for product quality. Curing and suitable holding conditions after production are also part of the process through which concrete develops strength.
- Concrete block production per cycle: 10 pcs.
- Paving stone production per cycle: 25 pcs.
- Daily paving stone production capacity: 500 m².
- Factors to consider together in production planning: moulds, concrete mix, material flow and curing area.
Capacity figures provide a reference for investment planning. A business’s actual production setup should also be assessed in terms of work organisation, continuity of raw material supply, maintenance practices and post-production processes. It is therefore important to focus not only on the number of products per cycle, but also on the facility as a whole.
Applications of Concrete Blocks and Paving Stones
Concrete blocks are among the concrete products used for wall construction in building projects. Paving stones are used for pedestrian paths, sidewalks, outdoor landscaping and various paving applications. For both product groups, products must be selected to suit their intended use, taking the relevant project requirements into account.
When considering an investment in a paving stone machine, the intended product range, local demand and the business’s production organisation should be assessed together. Similarly, product requirements, raw material supply and storage conditions are important for concrete block production. These assessments help match machine capacity to the business’s actual needs.
Comprehensive Planning for a Production Investment
When planning production with the CBM 25-2, concrete preparation, product handling, curing and storage processes should be considered alongside machine selection. Regular maintenance and operators’ understanding of operating principles help keep production running smoothly. Clearly defining requirements before investing is a fundamental step in establishing a suitable production setup.
