Industrial machinery and hydraulic presses WKB Systems

Engineering selection and integration of WKP hydraulic presses, AAC cutting lines and forging automation cells from WKB Systems.

AAC cake cutting and profiling production complexes

Automated longitudinal and cross cutting lines by WKB Systems provide high-accuracy dividing of green aerated concrete cakes into blocks and panels. Pneumatically tensioned cutting wires eliminate microcracking and maintain tight dimensional tolerances across all production cycles.

  • Longitudinal and vertical wire cutting units featuring pneumatic tension regulation
  • Oscillating cutting wires ensuring smooth block surfaces and minimal edge chipping
  • Green cake separating system to prevent product adhesion during steam autoclaving
  • Integrated suction hoods for bottom waste removal and slurry recycling circuits

WKP series hydraulic presses for sand-lime bricks

Heavy-duty hydraulic presses of the WKP 800, WKP 1200, and WKP 2000 series utilize double-sided staged compaction for sand-lime mixtures. High-accuracy moulding dies and servo-regulated valves produce solid and hollow bricks with uniform bulk density across every cycle.

  • Double-sided hydraulic pressing action with clamping ratings from 800 to 2000 kN
  • Quick-change mould inserts for standard, modular, and textured facing masonry units
  • Electronic brick height adjustment with automated green mix shrinkage compensation
  • Proportional hydraulic manifolds operating with closed-loop pressure regulation

Autoclave trolleys, tilting tables, and handling conveyors

Handling complexes by WKB Systems transfer moulds, autoclave cars, and aerated concrete cakes without shock loads. Automated tilting machines smoothly rotate green cakes onto their sides, preventing deformation of uncured product before entering the cutting area.

  • Rail transfer trolleys and pusher units with variable-frequency smooth travel control
  • Hydraulic tilting platforms engineered with soft end-position shock absorption
  • Autoclave trolleys equipped with heat-resistant wheelsets rated for 200 degrees C
  • Laser alignment sensors verifying track continuity at autoclave entrance gates

Robotic manipulators and forging automation cells

Automated cells from WKB Forging Automation handle high-temperature billet transfers between heating furnaces and forging presses. Multi-axis industrial robots feature insulated end effectors and automated die lubrication units to maintain rapid production cycles.

  • Heavy-duty multi-axis industrial robots with payload capacities reaching 1200 kg
  • Thermal-resistant mechanical grippers featuring internal liquid cooling jackets
  • Automated spray manifolds delivering precision die lubricants between press strokes
  • Integrated cell controllers synchronized with press automation and feeder lines

U-block milling lines, lintel profiling, and packaging systems

Dedicated processing equipment by WKB Systems performs groove milling in U-blocks, profiling of reinforced lintels, and batch packaging of finished masonry. Finished pallets receive stretch-hood or shrink film wrapping to ensure safe logistics during road transport.

  • Multi-spindle milling machines forming precise longitudinal grooves in U-blocks
  • Profiling stations for reinforced aerated concrete lintels and floor panels
  • Robotic palletizing arms stacking bricks and blocks onto wooden shipping pallets
  • Automated hood packaging machines utilizing durable Stretch-Hood film technology

Preventive service, hydraulic parts, and plant retrofits

Modernization programs by WKB Systems and the Calsitec / Aircrete Europe service division extend the operational life of existing plants. Upgrading worn hydraulic cylinders, high-pressure pumps, and control software enhances overall throughput across demanding industrial cycles.

  • Supply of rod seals, piston assemblies, and custom heavy hydraulic cylinders
  • Overhaul and bench testing of proportional valves and servo manifolds
  • Modernization of numerical PLC software on wire cutting and handling complexes
  • Scheduled geometric audits for machine guideways, autoclave rails, and conveyors

Operating procedures for wire cutting complexes on AAC production lines

WKB Systems autoclaved aerated concrete cutting complexes require rigorous inspection of cutting wire tension to maintain tight block dimensions. Before installing replacement high-tensile wire sets, technicians isolate electrical drive motors and vent pneumatic distribution manifolds.

Each cutting wire is threaded through precision guide pulleys and secured into collet chuck holders. Pneumatic cylinders apply calibrated tension pressure to eliminate wire deflection when passing through green aerated concrete cakes.

Operators verify wire pitch and lateral alignment using optical laser gauges. Routine tension monitoring prevents block edge irregularities during continuous operation.

Hydraulic calibration of WKP series sand-lime brick press equipment

WKP 800 and WKP 1200 hydraulic presses perform staged double-sided compaction of sand-lime mixtures within an automated cycle. When configuring tooling for alternative masonry dimensions, technicians clean bolster plates and install modular forming dies.

Operating parameters including target block height and pressing force are input into the numerical control terminal. During test cycles, linear position transducers record travel profiles of upper and lower punch tools.

Minor bulk density variations are corrected by fine-tuning pressure dwell times and oil delivery flow rates. Regular inspection of vertical tie columns ensures balanced mechanical load distribution.

Operational protocol for green cake transfer tables and tilting units

Handling machines by WKB Systems smoothly rotate green aerated concrete cakes onto their sides prior to wire cutting. Synchronized hydraulic cylinders equipped with proportional flow throttles deliver smooth platform rotation without mechanical shock.

Prior to each manufacturing shift, technicians inspect bed rails and verify gentle grip actuation. When positioning green cakes, impacts against steel guideways are prevented to maintain intact corners.

Routine maintenance includes greasing pivot bearings, checking foundation anchor tightness, and inspecting high-pressure hydraulic hoses. Scheduled hydraulic oil renewal protects proportional control spools from wear.

Preventive servicing of robotic manipulators in hot forging cells

Robotic manipulators in WKB Forging Automation cells operate near high temperatures and mechanical vibration during billet transfers. Every work shift includes checking cooling water flow through gripper cavities and verifying pneumatic pressure levels.

Articulated robot joints are protected by heat shielding panels and receive high-temperature lubricants. Within the die lubrication unit, spray nozzles are cleaned and spray coverage angles are calibrated across tooling cavities.

Periodic checks of mechanical axis reference marks and servo calibrations maintain repeatable billet positioning into press dies.

Operation of U-block groove milling modules and Stretch-Hood packaging

Downstream processing machinery by WKB Systems shapes longitudinal grooves in U-blocks and applies automated protective packaging onto pallet loads. Before starting milling spindle motors, operators inspect carbide cutter inserts and verify dust extraction hood seals.

Suction ducts connect to a cyclone filtration unit for immediate evacuation of dry aerated concrete particles. In the packaging station, a Stretch-Hood machine stretches polyethylene film and forms a weather-resistant protective hood over each block pallet.

Weekly inspection of carriage tracks and pneumatic cutting blades prevents processing delays.

Hydraulic unit servicing and valve block overhaul for WKB equipment

High-pressure power units on WKB Systems manufacturing lines operate at pressures reaching 315 bar and require systematic fluid cleanliness monitoring. Monthly fluid samples determine oil purity ratings and detect moisture contamination.

Technicians monitor differential pressure indicators on high-pressure filters, replacing filter elements when restriction limits are reached. Proportional valves and directional control manifolds undergo command current checks against manufacturer specifications.

Scheduled inspection of rod seals and flange bolting prevents hydraulic fluid leaks across production lines.
