1. Overview
The Continuous Cutting Machine is a key shaping device in the clay
brick production line.
It is used to cut the continuous clay column extruded by the vacuum
extruder into individual green bricks of precise size.
This equipment features high automation, cutting accuracy, stable
operation, and easy maintenance, ensuring consistent brick
dimensions and smooth surfaces - critical for high-quality drying
and firing performance.
Our product pricing is customized according to your production
capacity requirements and detailed project drawings, ensuring the
most cost-effective solution for your brick plant.
2. Working Principle
(1) The vacuum extruder extrudes the clay into a continuous
rectangular mud column.
(2) The mud column is guided onto the conveyor system and enters
the cutting area.
(3) The machine uses vertical cutting wires and horizontal cutting
wires to complete:
Vertical cutting → Divides the clay column into multiple rows;
Horizontal cutting → Cuts the rows into single bricks according to
the required height.
(4) The cut green bricks are automatically transferred and neatly
arranged onto drying or kiln cars.
3. Main Components
(1) Mud Feeding System
Equipped with guide plates and pressure rollers to ensure stable
and aligned feeding of the mud column.
(2) Vertical Cutting Frame
Uses multiple evenly spaced high-strength cutting wires to divide
the clay column into precise widths.
(3) Horizontal Cutting Frame
Equipped with parallel cutting wires driven by a crank linkage or
servo motor for accurate reciprocating cuts.
(4) Transmission System
Composed of a reducer, chains, and belt drives - ensuring
synchronized, smooth, and low-noise operation.
(5) Electrical Control Cabinet
Controlled by PLC automation; cutting speed and length can be
adjusted easily.
Includes manual/automatic modes and full safety protection.
(6) Brick Transfer System
Automatically transfers mud and finished green bricks, seamlessly
integrated with the stacker or loading system.
