Auram Block Press
Specifications of the Press 3000
The frame of the Auram press 3000 can presently fit 19 moulds to produce about 80 different Compressed Stabilised Earth Blocks.
• High output from the automatic opening and ejection system:
Theoretical output = 1000 strokes/day. = 125 Blocks / Hour (plain full size blocks)
Practical output = 850 strokes/day. = 106 Blocks / Hour (plain full size blocks)
• Handling of the press with 3 men
• Mix preparation and block stacking with 4 men
• High and adjustable compression ratio from 1.6 to 1.83 (1.77 for 9 cm height)
• Micro adjustment of compression ratio
• Double compression with the folding back lid
• Rollers to move the press on site: Only 2 men are needed.
• Block height adjustable with ring spacers: 2.5 cm and from 5 to 10 cm (recommended is 9 cm)
• Micro adjustment of block height: 0.5mm accuracy
• Interchange ability of moulds
• Moulds are provided for making 4/4, 3/4 & 1/2 sizes
• Self-stability with the adjustable braces
• Very easy maintenance with grease nipples and grease gun
