The diagram demonstrates the process of how manufacturing bricks are used in the building industry.
Overall, it is a line process consisting of three main stages: mass preparation, hardening, and transportation. The first step is to obtain a mass consisting of various components, including clay, with a digger. The mass should be divided by a sieve into metal grid and clay. In addition, sand and water are added to the clay to achieve a significant structure ready for pouring into the mould. Afterward, there are two ways to shape a future brick: cutting and forming. In the former, the mass of sand, water, and clay is put into a mechanism, it is rolled out, and cut into bricks. While in the latter, the mixture is poured into an already prepared mold.
Future bricks are stacked in rows in a drying oven for 24 to 48 hours. Next, they are passed through two kilns with moderate from 200 to 980 C and high from 870 to 1300 temperatures, respectively. Last, but not least, in this stage is a cooling chamber where the mass should remain for 48 to 72 hours. Finally, after all the manipulations, the bricks are ready for packing and then delivery.
