Twelve Poyatos Hollow Block Mould Sets for Guatemala

This Guatemala repeat order supplied twelve hollow block moulds for a Poyatos customer with two confirmed block sizes.

A Larger Order Following Previous Production Experience

A concrete block manufacturer in Guatemala returned to HAWEN for twelve customized hollow block moulds for its POYATOS machines. The repeat order followed the customer’s experience with earlier HAWEN moulds, which it reported had fitted accurately, operated smoothly and provided durable construction.

According to the customer’s feedback from the previous cooperation, block quality remained stable during continuous operation, and production efficiency improved. That experience provided the basis for a further order as its production requirements increased.

Two Block Specifications within One Order

The twelve mould sets covered hollow blocks measuring 400 × 150 × 200 mm and 390 × 140 × 190 mm. These were separate product requirements, each needing the appropriate forming dimensions while retaining compatibility with the customer’s existing POYATOS equipment.

For this project, the task was to reproduce the required products and build on the experience gained from the earlier supply. The customer already had a reference for installation and operation, giving the repeat order a practical starting point.

HAWEN refined the material specification, dimensional control and structural design of the moulds. These refinements were intended to improve resistance to wear and deformation during repeated use while maintaining the required block dimensions.

Maintaining Consistency Across the Mould Package

In an order covering twelve sets, the relationship between the approved block specification and each finished mould is essential. The forming geometry must correspond with the intended product, and the machine interface must remain suitable for the equipment on which the mould will operate.

The project therefore combined two priorities: supplying the customer’s specified hollow block formats and maintaining the equipment compatibility that had contributed to the earlier order’s success. The design refinements supported these objectives without changing the core production requirements.

Shipment to Puerto Quetzal

The twelve completed mould sets were loaded into a 40HQ container and shipped to Puerto Quetzal, Guatemala. This provided a single shipment for the full order.

The case illustrates how feedback from an initial supply can inform a larger repeat project. The customer’s earlier operating experience established confidence in the tooling, while the new order allowed HAWEN to apply further design and manufacturing refinements. The documented outcome for this twelve-set project was completion and shipment; performance feedback related to the customer’s previous HAWEN moulds.
