Can Your Custom Block Shape Be Formed and Released?

Yes. Technical drawings are often the most efficient way to evaluate a custom mold project. Please include complete dimensions and clearly identify critical surfaces, profiles, cavities, chamfers, radii, and other special features. Machine information should be provided at the same time....

Yes. Custom molds can be developed for existing production equipment after technical compatibility is confirmed. HAWEN has published mold customization capabilities for equipment from manufacturers such as Hess, Masa, Zenith, and Tiger, as well as other block machine configurations subject to technical confirmation....

For the initial evaluation, please provide as much of the following information as possible: Block machine brand Machine model Finished block dimensions 2D or 3D block drawing Product photos Physical sample, if available Existing mold drawing or dimensions Required special features Production requirements With this information, HAWEN can evaluate the mold st...

HAWEN will evaluate the geometry from a mold-manufacturing and production perspective. Features such as undercuts, very thin sections, deep cavities, complex internal profiles, or movable elements may require a different mold structure or further technical discussion. For applicable special designs, HAWEN's published mold capabilities include solutions invol...

A custom mold has to satisfy two requirements at the same time: it must reproduce the required concrete product geometry, and it must operate correctly on the customer's production equipment. Providing both sets of information helps avoid designing a mold that produces the correct shape but does not match the machine....

Yes. HAWEN provides customized mold solutions for non-standard concrete blocks and pavers according to customer drawings, samples, dimensions, and production requirements. Before manufacturing, the block geometry and machine specifications are evaluated to determine an appropriate mold solution....

HAWEN can evaluate molds for different non-standard concrete products, including special blocks, paving units, landscaping products, wall blocks, and other concrete products that can be produced on compatible block making equipment. The final solution depends on the product geometry and machine capabilities....

Yes. Customers can send a physical block sample for technical evaluation. However, for complex shapes, we may also require detailed measurements, drawings, or additional design information to accurately define the geometry....

For applicable mold structures, components such as mold cores or top plates can be designed with replaceability in mind according to the customer's requirements and the mold configuration. This can be particularly useful for molds containing localized wear areas or special forming components....

The technical evaluation considers factors such as: Block dimensions Shape and geometry Internal cavities Minimum sections Filling conditions Compaction Demolding Mold strength Wear areas Machine working area Machine configuration If necessary, the mold structure can be adjusted according to the production requirements....
