Curetec Smart Curing System Solves Cracking Challenge for Fly-Ash Bricks in the Philippines
In the building materials industry, curing of fly-ash bricks has long been a tough challenge — natural curing features a long cycle, and uncontrollable environmental conditions are likely to cause cracking. Recently, a fly-ash brick plant in the Philippines has successfully solved this problem with a set of “Electric Steam + Intelligent Tent” System from Curetec.
Points: 28-day Curing Cycle with Frequent Cracking
The customer originally adopted the traditional natural curing method to produce fly-ash bricks and panels.
Long Cycle:
It takes a full 28 days to reach the required strength of 3.5MPa
High Loss:
Frequent product cracking due to uncontrollable ambient temperature and humidity, leading to a persistently high defective rate
The lengthy curing cycle and high waste cost have become two major bottlenecks restricting production capacity and profits.
