Two Quadra Q10 Hourdis Block Moulds for Morocco

This Morocco order covered two Hourdis block mould formats for a Quadra Q10 machine, each matched to a different block height.

A Returning Customer with New Product Requirements

A concrete products manufacturer in Morocco returned to HAWEN for two customized Hourdis block moulds for its Quadra Q10 automatic block-making machine. The customer had previously used HAWEN moulds and chose to continue the cooperation based on their stable performance and reliable quality.

The new order covered two Hourdis block specifications. Both moulds needed to work with the customer’s existing machine and 1200 × 1150 mm production pallets, while accommodating different block dimensions and cavity layouts.

Two Block Formats on One Machine

One mould was designed for 518 × 80 × 200 mm blocks, with 20 forming cavities. The second was designed for 518 × 160 × 200 mm blocks, with 12 cavities. These configurations gave the customer tooling for two distinct products on the same Quadra Q10 production system.

The engineering task was to develop each mould around its required block geometry while maintaining compatibility with the established equipment. The different cavity counts reflected the individual product layouts, making it necessary to confirm each design separately.

Before manufacturing, HAWEN engineers reviewed the technical drawings, product dimensions, mould structures and production requirements with the customer. This confirmation established the specifications for both sets and connected the finished block requirements with the machine-related dimensions.

From Approved Drawings to Finished Moulds

With the technical details agreed, HAWEN customized the moulds according to the Quadra Q10 configuration. The design work focused on the forming cavities and mould structure needed to produce the specified Hourdis blocks.

After manufacturing, both sets were inspected at the HAWEN factory. The checks covered the mould structures, dimensions and forming cavities against the confirmed project requirements. Each mould was assessed according to its own block specification before being prepared for delivery.

Continuing an Established Supply Relationship

The project resulted in two completed Hourdis block moulds prepared for the customer in Morocco. It extended an existing supplier relationship to a new set of product requirements, supported by drawing confirmation, customized design and final inspection.

For this customer, previous experience with HAWEN provided the basis for another purchase. The new order then required a fresh technical review to ensure that both Hourdis block formats were correctly defined for the Quadra Q10. Together, these steps connected the confidence built through earlier cooperation with the specific engineering requirements of the current project.
