Professional foam concrete equipment manufacturer
As a professional foam concrete equipment manufacturer, Gaodetec has decades of experience in developing, manufacturing and marketing foam concrete foam concrete equipment. Regarding the manufacture of foam concrete, we have some experiences to share with you.
Foamed concrete usually consists of cement or a slurry of fly ash, sand, and water, although some suppliers recommend mixing pure cement and water with a foaming agent for lightweight mixtures. This slurry was further mixed with a synthetic aerated foam in a concrete mixing station. Foam is made by mixing a foaming agent with water and air in the generator. The blowing agent used must be capable of producing high levels of stable air bubbles, resistant to the physical and chemical processes of mixing, placing and hardening.
If foamed concrete bricks are pressed, the foamed concrete mixture can be poured or pumped into moulds, or directly into structural elements. Due to the thixotropic nature of the foam bubbles, the foam allows the slurry to flow freely, making it easy to pour it into the form or mold of choice. Viscous materials can take up to 24 hours to cure (or 2 hours if steam cures at temperatures up to 70 ° C), depending on variables such as ambient temperature and humidity. After curing, the molded product can be released from the mold. A new application in foam concrete manufacturing is the use of special steel wires to cut large pieces of concrete cake into different sizes through a cutting machine, and cut when the concrete is still soft.
Foam concrete has significant thermal and sound insulation effects and can be cut, carved, drilled and shaped with woodworking tools. This new building material can be used to make foundations, subfloors, building blocks, walls, domes and even arches that can be reinforced with architectural fabrics.
