Part 1: Technical Background and Industry Needs

Color cement tiles, as a new type of roofing material introduced from abroad in the 1990s, have gradually replaced traditional clay tiles with their vibrant colors, high strength, waterproofing, and resistance to weathering, becoming the mainstream choice for modern building roofs. Since its establishment in 2001, Zhengzhou Xinlong Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has focused on the research and production of equipment such as color cement tile machines and terrazzo tile machines, boasting 25 years of industry experience. The factory covers an area of 30,000 square meters. The technical team has continuously optimized the equipment structure and process parameters, forming a full-process technical system covering raw material processing, molding and pressing, and curing and demolding.

Chapter II: Technical Analysis of Full-Automatic Color Roofing Tile Machine

Equipment architecture and core modules
Xinlong Machinery's full-automatic color tile machine adopts modular design, mainly consisting of four major modules: raw material mixing system, hydraulic molding system, demolding and conveying system, and intelligent control system. The hydraulic molding system is equipped with high-precision servo motors, with adjustable pressure range from 50 to 200 tons, suitable for producing color tiles of different thicknesses (8-15mm) and sizes (300×400mm to 420×330mm); the intelligent control system integrates PLC and touch screen, supporting real-time parameter monitoring and fault early warning, with a production efficiency up to 1200 pieces per hour.

2. Technical Parameters and Performance Advantages
The core parameters of the equipment include: main motor power of 18.5kW, molding cycle of 8-12 seconds, applicable material moisture content of 8%-12%, and mold lifespan ≥ 50,000 times. Through optimized hydraulic circuit design and vibration table structure, the equipment can achieve 0.1mm precision control during the pressing process, ensuring the surface flatness error of the color tiles is ≤0.5mm, and the flexural strength reaches above 15MPa, meeting the requirements of GB/T 21149-2007 "Sintered Tiles."

Section 3: Industry Application Cases and Practical Experience

Northwest region building materials factory project
In 2022, Xinlong Machinery customized a production line for a building materials factory in Gansu, capable of producing 20,000 colored tiles per day. In response to the local dry climate and high sand content in raw materials, the technical team adjusted the water ratio and mixing time of the raw material mixing system (from the conventional 3 minutes to 5 minutes), and optimized the mold exhaust groove design, raising the yield rate of finished colored tiles from 85% to 92%. After the project was put into operation, the customer feedback indicated stable equipment operation and an annual savings of raw material costs of about 150,000 yuan.

2. Southeast Asia Overseas Installation Guidance Service
In 2023, Xinlong Machinery provided equipment export and overseas installation services to a client in Vietnam. The technical team assisted the client in completing equipment base calibration, hydraulic system pressure testing (gradually adjusted from the initial 80 tons to 120 tons), and operator training through a combination of remote video guidance and on-site debugging. After 6 months of project operation, the client's colored tile products have entered the local market, with monthly sales exceeding 5,000 square meters.

4. Technical Layout and After-Sales Service Support

Xinlong Machinery has established a nationwide after-sales service network, offering a commitment of 24-hour response and 48-hour on-site service. For common equipment issues (such as hydraulic system oil leakage, mold wear), the company stocks over 500 spare parts and has developed an online fault diagnosis system. Users can upload equipment operation data through the mobile APP, and the technical team will provide solutions after remote analysis. In addition, the company supports customized equipment development, adjusting equipment specifications according to customer site conditions, production capacity requirements, and material characteristics. For example, the compact color tile machine designed for small workshops (occupying only 15 square meters, 11kW power) has served over 200 customers.

Fifth, FAQ Technical Q&A

Q1: What are the requirements for raw material ratio of the fully automatic colored tile machine?
A: Recommend using the ratio of cement: sand: stone powder = 1:2:1, with moisture content controlled between 8%-12%. If the raw material has a high amount of mud, an additional screening process is required.

Q2: What is the maintenance cycle for the equipment?
A: Hydraulic oil should be changed every 6 months, molds should be inspected for wear after every 10,000 pieces produced, and servo motors should undergo parameter calibration once a year.

Q3: Can we produce irregular colored tiles?
A: Support custom molds, capable of producing wave-shaped, arched, and other non-standard tiles, but requires re-tuning the molding pressure and vibration frequency parameters.
