Vacuum Systems for Superior Ceramics Quality

From air removal in clay preparation to extrusion and firing, our solutions ensure consistent quality, reliability, and efficiency in the manufacturing of bricks, roofing tiles, porcelain, and technical ceramics. The production of ceramics requires precision and reliability to ensure air pocket-free products that can withstand firing and environmental conditions. Elmo Rietschle’s vacuum solutions optimize key ceramics applications, such as clay preparation and extrusion, ensuring homogeneous mixtures, efficient air removal, and consistent product quality.

Our systems are designed to meet the unique demands of ceramics manufacturing processes, helping to prevent defects during firing and ensure long-lasting durability in bricks, tiles, porcelain, and technical ceramics. With decades of industry expertise and a global support network, Elmo Rietschle is your trusted partner for vacuum technology in ceramics production.

Precision and Reliability in Clay Preparation and Extrusion

Vacuum systems play a critical role in ceramics manufacturing by enabling the removal of air during clay preparation and extrusion, preventing the formation of air pockets that could compromise product quality. Elmo Rietschle’s solutions enhance key processes, such as:
  • Air Removal from Clay : Vacuum extruders eliminate air pockets from clay mixtures to ensure consistent quality during firing.
  • Homogeneous Clay Mixing : Vacuum systems support pressurization with water or steam to create uniform clay mixtures for extrusion.
  • Extrusion and Moulding : Vacuum ensures the integrity of clay as it is pressed into moulds and extruded to precise dimensions.
