TETRAPOD MOULDS

Tetrapod Mold Formwork - 12

We have been designing, manufacturing and assembling moulds for Precast Concrete Tetrapods weighing from 1 to 42 tons according to our client's Project requirements. Tetrapods are used as amour units (concrete breakwater units) for protection of exposed coastal structures. Due to the necessity to produce thousands of precast items, durable and long-life Tetrapod Moulds are required ensuring their reusability hundreds of times in the course of the Project  Cycle. Through our experience of fabrication of modular formworks, we use steel elements of proper thickness in our moulds.

We determine the optimal production method basing on the latest technologies to fabricate the components in compliance with the European Standards delivering the Project on time. Different than Accropode and Xbloc moulds, Tetrapod moulds have a bottom segment (part) and a cast concrete block needs to be kept in the mould until it gets cured.

Vertical Panel Wall Moulds allows producers to have customized dimension precast concrete wall panel with preferred finishing on both sides. In addition having the mould vertically standing, it occupies less space for manufacturing and de-moulded easily. Structurally the mould has fixed central frame, side frames move on rails for the preparation and de-moulding of the concrete. The two independently moving side elements have 10mm thick surface plates to ensure the rigidity and not to have deformation in its lifecycle. 

The hinged side doors allow to have the concrete product in full extend as well as bottom and side panels with magnets are used to get customized wall width and height. For door and window frames similar panels with shuttering magnet can be placed in accordance with the project.  The vibration systems allows the uniform compaction of the concrete. Optionally for fast curing, pipping system carrying hot water can also be installed on the mould face. 

TILTING TABLES

Tilting Table equipment 8

Tilting Tables are used for the production of large precast concrete panel walls in various construction fields such as residential, commercial or industrial. KF Moulding Tilting Tables are designed for the use of wall panels with different thicknesses. The adjustable bottom section of the mould enables produce  100mm to 400mm thick concrete wall panels.  The sides panels with shuttering magnet elements allows the production of adjustable wall width and height in accordance with each specific construction design. The Shuttering mechanisms are also used for the door and window frames. 

It is also possible to produce sandwich panel wall systems to have decorative finish and having insulation materials installed in the wall structure. The hot water pipping systems can be installed upon the needs for the fast curing of the concrete panels. Following the concrete cure, the table is tilted up to 80 degrees vertical position by hydraulic cylinders for the panels to be moved from the table safely without having damages.

TRIBAR MOULDS

Tribar Formwork - 7

Breakwater armor units are essential for protecting coastlines, harbors, and other marine structures from the forces of the sea. Tribar molds are an important component of these units, as they are used to create the unique triangular shape of the armor units. Tribar molds consist of 8 segments that form the the mold. These molds are used to cast the breakwater armor units out of concrete, which is a highly durable and wave-resistant material.

One of the key benefits of tribar molds is their versatility. They can be used to create breakwater armor units of different sizes depending on the specific application. Additionally, tribar molds can be customized to meet specific requirements and tribar molds are also highly efficient and cost-effective.

PRECAST TUNNEL SEGMENT MOULDS

Tunnel Segment Mold - 2

Tunnel segment molds are an essential component of modern tunnel construction. These molds are used to create precast concrete segments that are pieced together to form the lining of a tunnel. The use of precast concrete segments has many advantages over traditional tunnel construction methods, including faster construction times, improved safety, and reduced environmental impact.

Tunnel segment molds are typically made of steel and can be custom-designed to fit the specifications of each individual project. The molds are used to create individual segments that are cast in a factory or onsite using a variety of high-strength concrete mixes. Once the segments are cast, they are typically transported to the construction site and pieced together using a specialized crane system. The segments are designed to interlock and form a strong, durable tunnel lining that is capable of withstanding the forces of the surrounding earth.

XBLOC PlUS® MOULDS

hydraulic prestressed girder MOULDS

Prestressed Girder Mold - 1

Prestressed girder molds are an important tool in the construction industry for creating strong, durable, and reliable structural components. These molds are used to create prestressed girders, which are reinforced concrete beams that have been pre-tensioned or post-tensioned with steel strands or bars. The use of prestressed girders has become increasingly popular in recent years due to their ability to withstand heavy loads and long spans. These girders are commonly used in the construction of bridges, high-rise buildings, and other structures that require a high level of strength and durability.

To create prestressed girders, steel strands or bars are pre-tensioned or post-tensioned within a mold that is typically made of steel or fiberglass. These strands or bars are stretched to a predetermined tension level and then anchored to the mold. Once the concrete is poured into the mold, the tensioned strands or bars are released.
