Customer Background
A small contractor outside Nairobi wanted to enter block supply with the minimum practical investment.

Capital was extremely limited, and the customer needed a pallet-free machine that could operate on a simple level site.

The manual QT40-3C measures about 920 x 800 x 1260 mm, weighs only 250 kg, uses 1.5 kW and can be operated by one or two workers.
Project Results
