Raw Material Preparation

• Clay or shale is mined from quarries or sourced from deposits Then The raw material is transported to the factory and stored.

Drying

The shaped bricks are allowed to air-dry or placed in drying chambers to remove excess moisture.

Proper drying is crucial to prevent cracking or warping during firing.

Packaging and Storage

Approved bricks are packaged and stored for distribution.

They are typically stacked on pallets, wrapped, and labeled for identification.

Firing

Dried bricks are placed in kilns and fired at high temperatures, typically around 1,100°C to 1,200°C.

Firing transforms the clay into a durable, hardened structure through a chemical and physical process known as vitrification.

Distribution

Bricks are shipped to construction sites, retailers, or other destinations for use in various building projects.

Mixing

The powdered material is mixed with water to form a clay mixture or "body." Also, other additives may be included to enhance properties like strength or color.

Cooling

After firing, the bricks are allowed to cool slowly inside the kiln or cooling chambers.

Rapid cooling can lead to stress fractures in the bricks.

Recycling and Waste Management

Any waste or byproducts from the brick-making process may be recycled or disposed of according to environmental regulations.

Shaping

The clay mixture is formed into brick shapes using one of several methods, such as extrusion, molding, or pressing.

The shaped clay can be in the form of individual bricks or larger brick panels, depending on the method used.

Quality Control

The finished bricks are inspected for defects, size, color, and strength.

Any substandard bricks are removed from the production line.

Crushing and Grinding

The raw material is crushed and ground into a fine powder, and after that this process helps ensure a uniform mixture for brick production.
