The diagram illustrates the way in which bricks are produced for the building industry.
Overall, bricks originally formed from clay that pass through four stages (rolling, moulding, drying, heating, and cooling) before being packaged and ready for delivery. While the technique for moulding can be done with two methods, using a wire cutter or mould shaper.
In the first stage of making bricks, a digger machine is used to obtain clay from the ground. Then the clay will be place onto a metal grid, which is used to crush the clay into smaller pieces with the assistance of a roller. Then the crushed clay will be combined with salt and water before placing it into a wire cutter or mould shaper.
Afterwards, the bricks are placed inside an oven to dry which take one to two days. The next stage is the heating and cooling process. They are heated inside a kiln at a moderate then high temperature (ranging 200c to 1300 c), followed by a cooling process in a chamber for 48 to 72 hours. Finally, the final product is ready to be packaged and sent for delivery.
