Automatic Pole Production Line

A chain conveyor pole line that carries the mould through mixing, tensioning, spinning and steam curing on a stable cycle.

Product Overview

What This Equipment Product Does

The Zino Automatic Pole Production Line covers the full spun concrete pole process: concrete mixing, rebar and cage making, clamping, pumping, tensioning, spinning, steam curing, demoulding and stocking. The factory is equipped with the latest automatic chain conveyor, which holds a stable production cycle and protects the workers on the floor. It needs about 30 percent of the workers a traditional labour intensive line requires, so the return on investment is significant over the life of the plant.

Key Benefits

  • Stable production cycle secured by automatic chain conveyor handling
  • About 30 percent of the labour a traditional manual pole line needs
  • Full protection for workers at clamping, spinning and curing stations
  • Layout and capacity matched to your building and output target
  • One team from layout design through trial production and training

Problems It Solves

  • Cycle time drifts when moulds are moved by crane and by hand
  • Headcount per shift is too high for the local labour cost
  • Operators work close to spinning and curing hazards
  • Machines bought from several suppliers never balance into one line

Application Scenarios

  • Greenfield pole factory for a national electrification programme
  • Telecom pole plant supplying tower and antenna contractors
  • Existing yard converting from crane handling to conveyor handling
  • Second line added to raise plant output without a second site

Who It Is For

  • Utility pole producers supplying power distribution networks
  • Telecom infrastructure suppliers
  • Precast concrete groups entering the pole market
  • Investors setting up a first pole plant in a new market

  • Single line able to produce both poles and piles
Comparison

How It Compares

Traditional labour intensive pole lineThe conveyor line holds a stable cycle and needs about 30 percent of the workers, which changes the cost per pole rather than only the speed.
Automatic Pile Production LineThe pole process ends at steam curing and demoulding, while the pile line adds end plate welding and a second pressure curing stage.
Use Guide

How A Project Runs From Enquiry To Production

  1. Send the target output per shift, the pole lengths and the building dimensions
  2. Zino returns a layout and a line configuration for review
  3. Steel structure is installed under Zino site instruction
  4. Equipment is debugged, then trial production and operator training run on the real line
FAQ

Automatic Pole Production Line Questions

How many workers does the line need per shift?
An automatic Zino line runs with about 30 percent of the workers that a traditional labour intensive line needs for the same process.
Can the same line produce piles?
Yes. The Bangladesh turnkey project runs one production line that suits both pole and pile production, at 600 units per shift.
Which standard is the line designed to?
The default design standard is the latest GB standard from China. If you have your own national standard, send it before design starts and it will be applied from the beginning.
What is included besides the machines?
Planning, design, delivery, site instruction on steel structure installation, equipment debugging, trial production, training, mass production support, maintenance and servicing.
