Project Overview
- Location: San Salvador, El Salvador
- Machine: QT4-24

Customer Background
A small-to-medium producer near San Salvador needed to expand output for a rapidly growing residential construction market.
Customer Challenges
Manual production delivered only about 500-600 blocks per day, product dimensions varied and rising labor costs limited further growth.
Selected Solution
The semi-automatic QT4-24 uses vibration forming, a 24-second cycle and simple controls. A three-to-four-person team can operate the line and change molds for blocks or pavers.
Project Results
Output increased by more than six times, quality stabilized and the customer entered several residential-development supply chains. The reported investment recovery period was about six months.
Customer Feedback
QT4-24 gave us a major capacity increase at a reasonable investment. The machine is stable, our operators learned it quickly, and we can now accept larger orders.
