As of 13 November 2026, six brick making machine manufacturers in India name an Indian plant on their own websites and list brick or block machines: Karmyog Hi-Tech Machineries, Macons Equipments, Maruti Hydraulics, Revomac Industries, Robexo Industries and SnPC Machines. Between them they cover hydraulic fly ash presses, cement hollow block machines and mobile clay brick machines. None of the CLC foam concrete plant sellers we checked qualified, and only Maruti Hydraulics publishes a price.

How many bricks will a fly ash press really make in a shift? Multiply bricks per stroke by strokes per hour, then by the hours you actually run. An entry press making 6 bricks a stroke on a 15 to 20 second cycle gives 8,640 to 11,520 bricks in eight hours, before any downtime.

Settle that sum before you choose a maker. The money side of running a unit, from ash supply to profit per month, is worked out in fly ash brick business: investment and profit, and the autoclaved block route in AAC block business: plant cost and margin.

How this list of brick making machine manufacturers in India was built

On 13 November 2026 we opened the websites of 19 companies selling fly ash brick, cement block, CLC or clay brick machines in India. A company is listed only if its own site names an Indian factory or plant address and lists brick or block making machines.

We dropped 13. Five gave only an office or head office address, among them a CLC plant seller and three clay machine makers. Six had websites built and run by IndiaMART or TradeIndia, which do not count as a maker’s own source. One foreign brand showed no Indian plant, and one site did not load. The list is alphabetical, not a ranking, and not complete.

Brick machine types by what they make

Machine type How it forms the brick Listed maker and stated output
Hydraulic fly ash brick press Hydraulic pressing with vibration in a steel mould; bricks cure without firing Karmyog KHM 72: 1,440 an hour; Maruti MBM range: 4,500 to 23,000 a shift
Multi-product block machine Vibration plus pressure on pallets; mould change switches bricks, blocks, kerbs Revomac MAC 1400: 15,360 fly ash bricks a shift; Robexo Rx08H: 20,700 to 25,900 per 8 hours
Cement hollow and solid block machine Vibro-press on pallets, aggregate and cement mix Macons MBM-6-15: 7,200 to 8,640 hollow blocks per 8-hour shift
Mobile clay brick machine Moulds prepared clay on a mobile chassis; green bricks are then dried and fired SnPC BMM160: 5,000 to 6,000 bricks an hour
Mechanical or rotary press Mechanical press head over a turning table of moulds Not specified by any listed maker
CLC foam concrete plant Foam generator and mixer; slurry poured into moulds, no pressing Not specified: no CLC maker qualified

As stated on each maker’s site on 13 November 2026. CLC blocks fall under IS 2185 (Part 4):2008, so ask any CLC seller for test results against it. Clay bricks still need firing; see machines for brick kilns.

What each maker says it makes

Karmyog Hi-Tech Machineries

Karmyog started at Bhuj in 1996 and says it builds fly ash brick and block machines at its Bhuj facility, at 107, GIDC Estate, Nagor Road. Its KHM 72 press works at 72 tonnes with bottom vibration, 6 bricks a stroke, a 15 to 20 second cycle and 30.5 hp. The range goes up to the KHM 252.

Macons Equipments

Macons’ main line is concrete batching plants. It names its works on the Sarkhej-Bavla Highway at Matoda Patia, Sanand taluka, Ahmedabad, on over 40,000 sq yards. The MBM-6-15 makes 6 hollow blocks of 400 x 200 x 200 mm a pallet on a 15 to 23 second cycle and draws 34.4 kW.

Maruti Hydraulics

Maruti Hydraulics was founded in Nashik in 1991, says it built its first solid block machine in 1993, and names its factory at Gat No. 592 on the Nashik-Pune Highway. Its main line is AAC block plants. Its fly ash brick machines, MBM 2 to MBM 12, make 4,500 to 23,000 bricks a shift with 40 to 120 tonnes of force and 7.5 to 17.5 HP.

Revomac Industries

Revomac was set up in Ahmedabad in 2010 and names its manufacturing plant at Shivadhin Industrial Park, Chandial, on the Indore highway. Its MAC 1400 makes 8 fly ash bricks of 230 x 110 x 75 mm a cycle, 1,920 an hour and 15,360 a shift, on 37 HP, and needs a 3,000 sq ft shed. The same machine lists hollow blocks, solid blocks, kerbs and pavers.

Robexo Industries

Robexo has made machinery since 2015 and says its manufacturing unit is in Ahmedabad; the address it gives, labelled head office, is Plot No. 25, Nandanvan Industrial Park-2, Bakrol. Its Rx08H presses at 100 tonnes with vibration on a 12 to 15 second cycle and 37 HP. It lists 18 fly ash bricks per pallet and asks for 8,000 sq ft of land.

SnPC Machines

SnPC names its manufacturing office at Village Barona, Kharkhoda tehsil, Sonipat, Haryana, and its assembly unit at IMT Kharkhauda. Its clay brick machines are mobile, on its own chassis. The BMM160 makes 5,000 to 6,000 bricks an hour with 2 to 3 workers, runs off a 160 kVA genset using 16 to 18 litres an hour, and takes up to 50 per cent fly ash in the clay.

Working out bricks per shift from the maker’s own numbers

Every maker quotes a shift figure. Check it against the cycle time, because the two do not always match. Here are four machines, from each site’s own numbers, over an 8-hour shift of 28,800 seconds.

Machine Units per cycle Stated cycle Stated per 8 hours Cycle the shift figure implies
Karmyog KHM 72 (fly ash bricks) 6 15-20 s 8,640-11,520 (our sum) 15-20 s
Revomac MAC 1400 (fly ash bricks) 8 15-30 s 15,360 15 s
Robexo Rx08H (fly ash bricks) 18 12-15 s 20,700-25,900 about 20-25 s
Macons MBM-6-15 (hollow blocks) 6 15-23 s 7,200-8,640 20-24 s

Our working: 28,800 seconds divided by the cycle, times units per cycle. Robexo and Macons base their shift figures on a slower cycle than their headline. Revomac’s figure assumes the fastest end of its range. Ask each maker which cycle and which mix its shift figure uses.

Then take off downtime. If you lose an hour of the eight to start-up, mould cleaning and breaks (our assumption, not the maker’s), the KHM 72 makes 7,560 to 10,080 bricks. If your buyers take, say, 2 lakh bricks a month over 25 working days, you need 8,000 a day. The entry press gets there only if its cycle stays under about 19 seconds.

What a brick making machine costs: the heads to budget

Five of the six makers publish no price on the pages we read. Maruti Hydraulics prints an estimated cost of around ₹2–25 Lakh (indicative, as of Nov 2026) across its fly ash range. It does not say which model sits where in that band.

The press is one line. Karmyog’s KHM 72 sheet asks for at least 2,000 sq m of land, a 20 x 70 ft shed 18 ft high, and 8 unskilled workers plus 1 skilled. Its power figure excludes the batching plant and stacker. Budget for:

  • The press and its moulds, plus spare moulds for every product you plan to sell.
  • Pan mixer or batching plant, conveyor and pallets.
  • Shed, curing area and the electricity connection for the load.
  • A loader to feed ash and sand to the mixer. A skid steer such as the JCB SSL 135 is rated at 612 kg with a 0.36 cu m bucket and a 2,320 mm dump height.

Compare machinery loan options for the press and loader before you pay a maker’s advance.

What to check before you buy

Fly ash-lime bricks are covered by IS 12894:2002. It says bricks may carry the ISI mark, but the BIS page for IS 12894 showed only 3 licences on 13 November 2026. So buyers will judge your bricks on test reports. Before you sign:

  • Get a trial run on your own ash and sand, and send the bricks to a lab. IS 12894 allows water absorption of up to 20 per cent by mass up to class 12.5, and drying shrinkage of up to 0.15 per cent.
  • Ask for bricks per stroke, the cycle time and the mix behind the shift figure in writing.
  • IS 12894 asks for the manufacturer’s identification mark or initials on each brick, so order the mould with your mark cut in.
  • Visit the plant named on the site and see a machine under assembly.
  • Get the spare parts list, service visit time and warranty in the order.

When an entry press is enough and when to buy an automatic line

An entry press like the 6-brick KHM 72 is enough when your shift sum, after downtime, covers your orders and you sell one product. Move to a larger line, such as Revomac’s MAC 1400 or Robexo’s 18-brick Rx08H, when your orders pass what the entry press makes in a shift, or buyers want blocks as well as bricks. Budget for the batching plant, pallets and bigger shed that come with it. Building and road tenders that need bricks are posted on the tenders and opportunities board.

Company details are taken from each maker’s own website as read on 13 November 2026; standards details from the BIS standards portal and the text of IS 12894:2002 with its amendments. The output-per-shift working is ours, from each maker’s stated figures. The list is alphabetical and not a ranking.
