PRECAST CONCRETE ELEMENTS112 CPI %u2013 Concrete Plant International %u2013 4 | 2025 www.cpi-worldwide.comMoldtech has announced a new international project that consolidates their presence in Latin America: the supply of a large tilting table in Uruguay for the production of non-prestressed precast concrete panels. The installation, 60 metres long by 4 metres wide, has been designed to manufacture panels with variable heights between 3 and 4 metres and adjustable thicknesses from 100 to 250 mm. This equipment incorporates technologies that optimise both product quality and production processes.Moldtech has announced a new international project that consolidates their presence in Latin America: the supply of a large tilting table in Uruguay for the production of non-prestressed precast concrete panels. The installation, 60 metres long by 4 metres wide, has been designed to manufacture panels with variable heights between 3 and 4 metres and adjustable thicknesses from 100 to 250 mm. This equipment incorporates technologies that optimise both product quality and production processes.Its main technical features include:%u2022 Pneumatic vibration system, which improves concrete compaction and reduces porosity.%u2022 Integrated heating at the bottom of the table, which promotes uniform setting and accelerates curing times.%u2022 Hydraulic tilting system, operated by cylinders and a hydraulic power unit, controlled from a main cabinet.%u2022 Height-adjustable lower longitudinal side, which facilitates the production of panels with different thicknesses.%u2022 Supply of 1,800 kg and 900 kg industrial magnets, together with adapted phenolic formworks.%u2022 A laser projection system, which projects the exact design of the panel to be manufactured onto the table surface, allowing operators to precisely position the magnets and separators, optimising preparation time and reducing errors.This project highlights Moldtech's ability to develop customised solutions and to meet the technical challenges posed by the industrialisation of construction.Industrialisation of construction in UruguayFor this project Moldtech was collaborating with Schmidt, a leading company in Uruguay in the design, production, and assembly of precast concrete structures.With 29 years of experience and a 40,000 m%u00b2 facility located in Canelones, Schmidt has developed innovative construction solutions ranging from industrial and logistics projects, public road infrastructure, and housing, homes, and high-rise buildings. Its production capacity of up to 5,000 tons of precast concrete pieces per month, combined with its ISO 9001 certification, underpins its commitment to quality, efficiency, and sustainability.Its focus on industrialized systems and its commitment to agile and durable construction have made Schmidt a technical leader in the region, combining rapid execution, structural strength, and architectural versatility.This nationally renowned company offers a wide range of precast products for industrial, commercial, residential, and road and urban infrastructure projects.In addition, it has developed a specific line of prefabricated housing, geared toward both social and larger-scale residential projects, with a modern and sustainable approach that prioritizes quality and energy efficiency. The company is ISO 9001 certified and has been institutionally recognized for its commitment to innovation and excellence in its processes.For Moldtech, being part of its value chain represents not only recognition but also a drive to continue designing and manufacturing equipment that meets the challenges of industrialized construction in Latin America.Magnetic technology for faster productionThis project has also integrated some of the most advanced magnetic solutions to optimise panel formwork in various types of moulds: tilting tables, fixed tables and vertical battery moulds.Large-scale production: 60%u00d74 meter tilting table installed in UruguayMoldtech S.L., 41500 Alcal%u00e1 de Guadaira (Sevilla), Spain
