If you're setting up a small-scale operation in a remote area or somewhere with no reliable grid power, the lack of electricity isn't a dealbreaker—it's actually teh selling point. You don't need a generator or a diesel engine, just two people and a bit of muscle. It runs on pure manual hydraulic force, so what it does is apply 10MPa of pressure per brick without a single watt.

We've seen buyers mostly use this for on-site soil stabilization or small village housing projects where hauling in concrete is way too expensive. The RL2-40 puts out 2 bricks per mold, with a cycle of 30-40 seconds depending on how fast your crew works. It's not high-volume production line, but for a job that needs 2,000 to 5,000 bricks, it fits pretty much perfectly—better than spending on a massive automated setup that just sits idle.


Its size is another practical point, 1600×700×1200mm and 340kg or so, which means you can load it onto a pickup or small flatbed trailer without a crane. One guy with a pallet jack can usually reposition it around the site. But it's not suited for continuous daily use over months of hard shifts—manual hydraulic pumps wear out operator faster than a motorized unit, so plan breaks accordingly.

Mold customization is avaliable, which is good if you need a specific interlocking pattern for drainage or wall joint stability, though we usually stock the standard profile for soil blocks. The optional JQ350 mixer (roughly $1,200 extra) makes sense if you're blending clay and sand; otherwise, hand mixing works but slows you down.

On the trust side, it come with a 2-year warranty, and our company have CE cerification on file (check the COA and TDS for your batch). Lead time is typically 3-4 weeks from order, though we've pushed a few out in 20 days or so during off-peak months. Actual feedback we've heard is the hydraulic jack is a known brand, so replacement parts aren't a hunt—that's a detail you don't think about until you need it.
We typically start at 1 unit for this manual machine, so MOQ is just 1. We can discuss larger orders if you need more.
Each cycle runs about 30-40 seconds, so you're looking at roughly 30 to 40 seconds for 2 bricks. That gives you around 180-240 bricks per hour with 2 workers.
Yes, it's CE certified, and we include the CE certificate along with a warranty card. We can also provide a packing list and invoice on request.
Absolutely, we offer mold customization for various interlocking patterns. Lead time for custom molds is about 7-10 days after order confirmation.
You can use clay, soil, or sand as raw materials. The JQ350 mixer is optional but recommended for consistent mixing—it's not included, so you'll need to order it separately if you want one.
