Low-Investment Start-Up Block Yard

A first block business built around a QTJ4-26, a JQ350 mixer and PVC pallets — the smallest commercially viable configuration.

The brief

A first-time entrepreneur wanted to supply 6-inch hollow blocks to local house builders with limited capital and a three-phase connection shared with a neighbouring workshop.

Our solution

  • QTJ4-26 semi-automatic machine with platform + mould vibration
  • JQ350 mixer and wheelbarrow feeding
  • 800 PVC pallets for low initial cost
  • Moulds for 6-inch and 5-inch hollow blocks plus solid bricks

Design outcome

With 4 blocks per 30-second cycle at 75% efficiency, the design output is about 2,900 blocks per shift — enough for roughly one average house every working day.

This is a reference configuration. Capacities are design values from machine specifications; actual results depend on materials, curing and operation.
