Reef
Construction Machinery Cape Town,
part of the PMSA Group, is a
manufacturer of Rock Solid moulds
for the brick and block making
industry, as well as providing
services to the industrial energy
sector.
Established in
April 2015 and based in Blackheath
in close proximity to Cape Town
International Airport, the company
sports a complete drawing and design
office, machine shop, boiler shop
and service centre running at full
capacity 48 weeks of the year.
The company
currently has eight personnel and 18
workshop employees dedicated to
planning, designing and building the
best in long lasting and reusable
dry-cast brick casting machines,
thus the name “Rock Solid”.
In addition to
moulds and machinery for the brick
making industry, Reef Construction
Machinery also supplies components
for the industrial energy sector,
mainly for systems fired on
agricultural waste products and
bagasse. These components are
exported worldwide.
The company
specialises in the manufacturing of
block moulds, paver moulds and
special customised retainer moulds
as well as the maintenance and
repairs of moulds and machinery in
the brick-making and wet-cast
sectors.
Reef
Construction Machinery is very proud
and fortunate to be a part of the
PMSA Group, as it allows us to
provide a much wider service to our
customers, with the back-up of a
well-established company that has
been in the concrete equipment
industry since 1976.
Rock Solid Features:
Featuring wear
resistant steel and thick outer
liners makes for a fantastic low
mould with great stability and
rigidity.
Wear resistant steel provides for a
longer wear life on wear plates.
Being replaceable these wear plates
also cut the cost on maintaining our
moulds as you only need replace what
is worn and nothing else. Reusable
tampers make for great savings of
about 30% when ordering a new mould.
On average these moulds yield well
over 100 000 drops on pavers and
80000 drops on block moulds with
just a tamper re-shoe mid-life in
order to preserve the neatness of
the final product. The extra thick
tamper bases and extra strong bent
section legs limit bending while
vibrating while windows on the legs
allow for cleaning and prevent
material hanging on top of the
shoes. The extra thick tamper base
provides longevity, as well as
preventing deformation during
vibration resulting in a dramatic
reduction in vibration time causing
the end product to be super compact
with reduced cement requirements.
