Part 1: Technical Background and Industry Demands

Color cement tiles, as a new type of roofing material introduced from abroad in the 1990s, have gradually replaced traditional clay tiles due to their vibrant colors, high strength, storm resistance, and waterproof properties, becoming the mainstream choice in modern architecture. Since its establishment in 2001, Zhengzhou Xinnong Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has focused on the research and production of cement color tile machines, terrazzo tile machines, and other equipment, with 25 years of technical accumulation and a 30,000 square meter factory scale. The products cover all provinces and cities in China, and we also provide overseas installation guidance services, offering a full chain of support from equipment customization to technical training for the industry.

2. Technical Principle and Core Advantages of Cement Tile Machine

1. Technical PrincipleThe cement tile machine, equipped with an automatic control system, mixes cement, sandstone, pigments, and other raw materials in proportion, then molds them under high pressure and cures them naturally to produce colored tiles. The equipment features modular design, supporting the production of tiles in various specifications (such as 300mm×400mm, 400mm×500mm) and thicknesses, which can be adjusted from 8-20mm to meet diverse architectural requirements.

2. Core Advantages：

（1）Efficient productionThe daily output of a single unit can reach 2,000-3,000 pieces, more than triple the traditional process, with an energy consumption reduction of 20%.

（2）Quality stableTiles have a density of over 98% through hydraulic molding technology, with a flexural strength of ≥15MPa, a seepage pressure resistance of ≥0.6MPa, and a service life exceeding 30 years.

（3）Environmental protection and energy savingEquipped with a dust recovery system, the equipment reduces dust emissions during the production process, meeting national environmental protection standards.

Typical Application Cases and Industry Practices

1. Cooperation Project with a Large Domestic Building Materials Enterprise：

After introducing Xinlong Machinery's cement tile machine, the company has achieved an annual production capacity of 1 million square meters of colored tiles. In the past two years of operation, the failure rate of the equipment is less than 1%, and the product pass rate reaches 99.5%. Customers have reported no cracking or water leakage in the tiles under extreme weather conditions, significantly enhancing the market competitiveness.

2. Case Study of Overseas Customized Service：

Customized export equipment for a Southeast Asian client, adapted to the local high temperature and humidity environment, with added corrosion-resistant coating and an intelligent temperature control system to ensure stable operation at 40℃. After the project was implemented, the client's local market share increased by 15%, and an additional order for 3 units was placed.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What are the requirements for raw materials in the cement tile machine?

A: Raw materials must meet national standards, with cement strength grade not lower than 42.5, sand and stone mud content ≤3%, and pigments must be inorganic mineral pigments to ensure the tiles' color durability and physical properties.

Q2: What is the maintenance cycle for the equipment?

A: Daily maintenance requires cleaning the equipment surface and mold, and lubricating the critical parts; hydraulic oil and filters should be changed every 2000 operating hours, and a comprehensive overhaul should be performed every 5000 hours to ensure long-term stable operation of the equipment.

Q3: How to solve the problem of tile edge cracking?

Possible causes include improper raw material ratio, insufficient molding pressure, or insufficient curing time. These issues can be resolved by adjusting the cement to sand and stone ratio (recommended 1:3), increasing the molding pressure to over 600 tons, and extending the curing cycle to over 7 days.
