A semi-automatic hollow block machine in this family is a compact vibration former for hollow concrete masonry blocks—typically a rigid frame, feed hopper, side control cabinet, and pallet discharge. Gongyi Machinery coordinates sourcing of this equipment from Gongyi-area partner plants; we are a procurement coordinator, not the manufacturer and not a factory owner.
Public pages stay brand-agnostic. Partner-plant model codes and nameplates are confirmed at quote / inspection—no invented model strings on this URL.
Category hub: Brick & block making.
Suitable applications & honest limits
Suitable when buyers need
- Hollow concrete / cement masonry blocks for walls and partitions in a small-to-mid yard
- A host machine that can often take interchangeable molds (hollow → solid brick or paver — confirm at quote)
- Semi-automatic operation with clear labor / pallet handling expectations
Honest limits
- Not briquetting. This is cement/concrete vibration forming, not powder densification. See briquetting if you need presses for fines.
- Not positioned here as a full-automatic high-output QT line. If you need full auto / egg-layer scope, say so—we treat it as a separate sourcing discussion.
- No published blocks/hour on this page. Output depends on mold, cycle time, mix, curing, and labor. Figures are confirmed only after a partner-plant quote against your duty sheet.
- Outdoor yard photos used in the gallery are partner-plant sites, not “our factory.”
Mold & product family (buyer duty sheet)
Discuss molds as a configuration question—not a fixed catalog claim:
- Hollow blocks — primary intent of this page; buyer states L × W × H
- Solid cement bricks — often same host family with a different mold → also see small cement brick making machine
- Pavers / colored face molds — optional; confirm tooling list at quote
Bring (or estimate): desired sizes, pieces per mold, and whether one mold set or a mold kit is required for year one.
Inquiry table
| Field | What buyer should provide |
|---|---|
| Product family | Hollow block (primary); also solid / paver if in scope |
| Product size(s) | L × W × H for each mold |
| Pieces per mold / cycle | Target if known — else “advise at quote” |
| Shift-output target | Blocks per shift (buyer-stated planning number) |
| Mix notes | Cement / sand / aggregate / fly ash; moisture if known |
| Operation preference | Semi-auto (default for this page) vs full-auto discussion |
| Voltage / frequency | At destination |
| Pallets | Type / size preference; whether pallets ship with machine |
| Documentation language | Manual / labels preference |
| Destination port | + Incoterm preference if known |
| Inspection tier | Photos / FAT / third party |
| Nameplate / model | Ask partner plant to confirm — not published here yet |
Inspection, packing & export coordination
Before payment milestones and sailing:
- Lock sizes, mold list, and utilities against the inquiry table
- Request nameplate photos (not visible on the first 8-image set) plus trial / cycle video if useful
- Agree photo QC, FAT, or third-party inspection
- Align packing, moisture protection, and documents to the Incoterm
Guides:
- Factory visit & QC checklist
- Pre-shipment packing checklist
- Pre-shipment inspection checklist
- Importing from China

FAQ
Do you manufacture this machine?
No. We coordinate sourcing from Gongyi-area partner plants.
Is this a briquetting press?
No. It forms cement / concrete masonry products by vibration. For powder briquetting, see briquetting.
What do you need for a quote?
Sizes, pieces-per-mold if known, shift-output target, mix notes, voltage/frequency, port, and inspection tier. Capacity and model codes are confirmed only after partner-plant reply.
Can we visit or inspect?
Yes—photo evidence, FAT, or third-party inspection can be coordinated. Use the factory-visit QC checklist.
Can molds be changed for solid bricks or pavers?
Often yes on this host family—confirm mold compatibility and tooling list at quote. Solid-brick intent is also covered on the small cement brick page.
