Choose the Machine According to Your Product
The QT4-15 is particularly suited to production projects where different concrete products need to be manufactured using corresponding molds.
For example:
- Hollow bricks: 4 pieces per mold
- Porous bricks: 14 pieces per mold
- Paver bricks: 14–16 pieces per mold
- Solid bricks: 26–28 pieces per mold
Smaller products generally allow more cavities per mold, while larger hollow blocks require fewer cavities. Therefore, the target product should be confirmed before determining the expected daily production capacity.
Block Products Supported by QT4-15
Hollow Bricks
The QT4-15 can produce 390 × 190 × 190 mm hollow bricks with the corresponding mold configuration. Hollow bricks are commonly used for wall and building construction applications.
Porous Bricks
The machine can be configured for 240 × 115 × 90 mm porous bricks. This configuration provides 14 pieces per mold according to the current production data.
Paver Bricks
For paving applications, the QT4-15 can use a dedicated paver mold. The current data lists 14–16 pieces per mold for 200 × 100 × 60 mm paver bricks.
Solid Bricks
The QT4-15 can also produce solid bricks with a dedicated mold. The listed 238 × 115 × 51 mm configuration produces 26–28 pieces per mold.
Other Mold Configurations
Additional product configurations can be evaluated according to the required block dimensions and mold design.
When requesting a quotation, provide the target product drawing or dimensions whenever possible. This allows the machine and mold configuration to be evaluated more accurately.
Industrial Components
The QT4-15 uses several named electrical and hydraulic components that should be highlighted as part of the machine configuration rather than presented as generic “high-quality components.”
Siemens PLC Control
The PLC control cabinet uses a Siemens PLC and buttons, providing a recognized industrial control platform for the production system.
ABB Relay
ABB relay components are used in the control cabinet configuration.
Schneider Electrical Accessories
The control system also incorporates Schneider electrical accessories according to the manufacturer's current specifications.
Yuken Hydraulic System
The hydraulic station and solenoid valve use Yuken components from Taiwan. The hydraulic station is designed as a sealed system, with a cover that also facilitates cleaning and maintenance.
Cast Vibration Box for Long-Term Use
One of the structural features of the QT4-15 is its whole cast vibration box.
Rather than using a vibration box assembled from welded iron plates, the machine uses a cast structure. The manufacturer states that this construction is intended to provide a stronger vibration assembly and longer service life.
This component deserves specific attention because the vibration box directly participates in the block forming process. Stable vibration is important for concrete compaction and product consistency.
Frequency-Conversion Vibration System
The QT4-15 uses a frequency-conversion motor for the vibration system and raw material feeding system.
The purpose is to allow the vibration performance to be adjusted for different concrete products rather than relying on one fixed vibration setting for every mold.
This configuration is particularly relevant when the same machine is used for:
- Hollow bricks
- Porous bricks
- Paver bricks
- Solid bricks
Different products can have different dimensions, cavity structures and concrete requirements, so vibration settings should be adjusted according to the actual production configuration.
油圧システム
The hydraulic system provides the main pressing force required during block formation.
The QT4-15 has a listed rated pressure of 25 MPa and uses a Yuken hydraulic station and solenoid valve configuration.
The hydraulic system should be inspected regularly for:

Maintenance intervals should follow the machine manual and actual operating conditions.
PLC Control and Machine Operation
The QT4-15 control system manages the production sequence through the PLC control cabinet.
The control system can be used to coordinate the main machine functions during:
- Material feeding
- Mold filling
- Vibration
- Hydraulic pressing
- Demolding
- Pallet movement
- Cycle completion
Operators should receive training on machine startup, shutdown, control-panel operation, basic parameter adjustment and routine inspection before independent production.
Mold Selection
The mold determines the final product dimensions and the number of pieces produced during each cycle.
Before selecting a QT4-15 mold, confirm:
- Product type
- Product length
- Product width
- Product height
- Number of cavities
- Required production capacity
- Product surface design
- Required strength
