Moldtech supplies a 40-meter hydraulic mold in Portugal for the production of prefabricated columns

The Spanish company moldtech has successfully completed the delivery and commissioning of an innovative hydraulic column mold at a leading Portuguese company. This team, from 40 meters of useful length, is designed for the production of concrete pieces that will be used in the construction of large industrial and logistics structures.

The new mold allows the manufacture of columns up to 40 meters long, with a versatility that extends to its section dimensions, which can reach 60 x 80 centimetersThe incorporated technology offers great design flexibility, allowing brackets to be installed on all four sides of the mold to adapt to the specific requirements of each project. Furthermore, the ability to connect multiple sections in series significantly increases production capacity.

With this project, Moldtech not only strengthens its presence in the Portuguese market, but also consolidates its commitment to custom engineering and the application of cutting-edge technology in the precast concrete industry.

One of the most outstanding features of this team is its integrated hydraulic technology, which automates key operations such as opening and closing the sides and lifting the bottom of the mold. This system, with synchronized cylinders, not only facilitates part removal, but also drastically reduces operating times and improves the safety of the molding process, ensuring continuous and high-precision production.

The mold design also includes advanced options to optimize production. The base height can be adjusted to achieve different column sections, and vibration systems, both electric and pneumatic, can be integrated to achieve the highest quality surface finish. Furthermore, the incorporation of Heating systems by means of finned tubes allows to accelerate the curing of concrete, a crucial factor for manufacturing efficiency.

With this project, Moldtech not only strengthens its presence in the Portuguese market, but also consolidates its commitment to the custom engineering and the application of cutting-edge technology in the precast concrete industry. The Spanish company adapts to the specific needs of each plant, demonstrating its ability to offer advanced technical solutions that boost efficiency and quality in construction.
