Establishing a gypsum board factory requires a series of professional production equipment to ensure the production efficiency and quality of gypsum boards. Here are some basic equipment requirements:
Raw material preparation equipment: including gypsum powder mill, calcination equipment, storage bin, etc., used to process natural gypsum or industrial by-product gypsum into gypsum powder suitable for producing gypsum boards.
Mixing equipment: Gypsum board production requires mixing gypsum powder with water, additives, etc. evenly to form gypsum slurry. Therefore, a mixer is needed to complete this process.
Forming equipment: Gypsum board forming equipment is the core equipment on the production line, including forming tables, forming molds, fabric machines, etc. These devices are responsible for pouring gypsum slurry into molds and shaping it into gypsum slab bodies with certain strength through vibration, compression, and other methods.
Drying equipment: After the gypsum board body is formed, it needs to be dried to remove excess moisture and achieve its strength for use. Drying equipment usually uses hot air drying or steam drying methods.
Cutting equipment: The dried gypsum board needs to be cut into specified sizes and shapes. Cutting equipment includes longitudinal cutting machines, transverse cutting machines, etc.
Packaging equipment: Finally, gypsum boards need to be packaged for storage and transportation. Packaging equipment includes packaging machines, edge banding machines, etc.
In addition to the basic equipment mentioned above, according to the production scale and market demand, the gypsum board factory also needs to be equipped with some auxiliary equipment, such as conveying equipment, dust removal equipment, metering equipment, etc.
