Opening Remarks on Industry's Technical Pain Points
Traditional roofing materials such as clay tiles suffer from issues like low strength, susceptibility to weathering, and short service life. Moreover, their production consumes substantial soil resources, failing to meet environmental protection requirements. Although colored cement tiles offer significant advantages, outdated production equipment can easily lead to the following problems:
STEP 1: Uneven mixing of raw materials— Deviations exceeding 5% in the proportions of raw materials such as cement, sand, gravel, and pigments result in significant color variations and substandard strength of the tiles;
STEP 2: Insufficient molding pressure— When the pressure is below 30 MPa, the tile density is low, and the impermeability decreases by more than 30%;
STEP 3: Excessively long maintenance cycle— Natural curing requires 7-14 days, occupies a large site area, and results in slow capital turnover.
These issues directly constrain production efficiency and product quality, becoming key pain points for technological upgrading in the industry.

Introduction to the company's technological strength
Zhengzhou Xinlong Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd., established in 2001, has been dedicated to the production of tile-making equipment for 25 years. The factory covers an area of 30,000 square meters and possesses comprehensive testing methods and customized service capabilities. Its colored cement tile production equipment adopts the following core technologies:
STEP 1: Intelligent Ingredient Mixing System— Through PLC control, precise proportioning (error ≤ 1%) of raw materials such as cement, sand, gravel, and pigments is achieved, ensuring uniform tile color and stable strength. For example, a customer reported that after using this system, the tile color variation rate dropped from 15% to 3%, and the product qualification rate increased to 98%.
STEP 2: High-pressure molding technology— Utilizing a hydraulic forming machine with a pressure capacity of up to 50 MPa, significantly exceeding the industry standard of 30 MPa, resulting in a 20% increase in tile density, a 50% improvement in impermeability, and extending the service life to over 30 years.
STEP3: Rapid Curing Process— Equipped with supporting steam curing equipment, it shortens the curing cycle from 7-14 days to 24 hours, reduces site occupation by 80%, and triples the efficiency of capital turnover.
The company's technical team comprises over 20 senior engineers capable of providing overseas installation guidance services. Its equipment has been exported to regions such as Southeast Asia and Africa, serving over 500 customers in total.

FAQ Q&A Technical Selection Guide
Q1: How to select the appropriate molding pressure?
A: The molding pressure should be determined based on the raw material ratio and tile specifications. For example, when producing tiles with a thickness of 6 mm and a length of 400 mm, it is recommended to control the pressure within 40-50 MPa. Insufficient pressure can result in inadequate tile density and reduced impermeability, while excessive pressure may increase equipment wear and raise energy consumption.
Q2: How to control the temperature and time for steam curing?
A: Steam curing should be carried out in stages:
STEP 1: Heating phase— Increase the temperature to 60-70℃ within 1 hour to prevent tile cracking caused by excessive temperature differences;
STEP 2: Constant temperature phase— Maintain a temperature of 60-70℃ for 12-16 hours to promote the cement hydration reaction;
STEP 3: Cooling phase—Slowly cool down to room temperature within 1 hour to prevent deformation of the tiles due to thermal expansion and contraction.
Q3: What are the precautions for equipment maintenance?
A：
STEP 1: Daily Inspection— Clean the residual cement on the mold surface and check the oil level of the hydraulic system and the pressure gauge reading;
STEP 2: Weekly Maintenance- Replace the lubricating oil, check the belt tightness, and adjust it to an error of ≤ 5 mm;
STEP 3: Monthly Maintenance— Disassemble the hydraulic cylinder, inspect the wear condition of seals, and replace aged components.
A customer case: By strictly implementing the maintenance plan, the equipment failure rate was reduced by 60%, and the service life was extended by 5 years.
