Precast Hollowcore Machine

Find the ideal solution to your production goals. Coote Precast Hollowcore machine, trusted across the globe.

Mould, concrete and cores are rotated 180 deg. into the de-mould position. The cores are then retracted from the mould and the freshly manufactured concrete and pallet is lowered uniformly from the mould onto a transfer conveyor. This transfer conveyor moves the pallet with the new product to the collection station. With multiple core sizes, produce the flooring right for you.

Machine Overview
- This fully automated machine can produce up to 750m² by 2 operators in a single shift
- Precast concrete slabs with internal tubular voids create an efficient and lightweight plank that is far lighter than other floor slabs of equal thickness or strength
Production Run
1. The hopper travels longitudinally across the mould and is positioned in the parking bay during the de-mould cycle. Concrete is fed from this holding hopper to the mould via the variable speed conveyor.
2. A scraper bar mounted to the front of the conveyor and is controlled with a hydraulic cylinder to level off the concrete in the mould.
3. Mould, concrete and cores are rotated 180 deg. into the de-mould position; the cores are then retracted from the mould and the freshly manufactured concrete c/w the pallet is lowered uniformly from the mould onto a transfer conveyor.
4. A spray booth is mounted within a moving carriage. This carriage travels in the same structure as the feed hopper and is programmed to spray oil directly onto the mould in parallel with the insertion off the cores.
5. A 9 meter chain conveyor transfers the cores in and out of the mould. The bogey unit transfers the core removal / insertion conveyor from the casting station to the de-mould station.
