AAC WORLDWIDE %u2022 2.2026 PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY 35The machine is built around a rigid mechanical frame and a fully enclosed oiling chamber, forming a closed process that isolates oil application from the surrounding production area. This design minimizes contamination, improves operator safety, and allows controlled recovery of oil particles during the spraying process.At the center of the system is an L-shaped oiling arm that provides full 360%u00b0 coverage of the mould interior. The arm is equipped with five oil nozzles, arranged with two downward-facing nozzles, two side nozzles, and one corner nozzle. This configuration ensures uniform oil distribution across all mould surfaces, including edges and corners.The mould surface is divided into eight independently programmable oiling zones. Each zone can be configured individually via the operator panel, allowing the oil quantity to be adapted to specific mould geometries, product types, or production requirements. This zoned approach enables high precision and repeatability across different AAC formats.Oil is applied using oil pressure spraying, rather than compressed air. This method provides accurate deposition of oil onto the mould surface while avoiding excessive mist formation. The result is a cleaner oiling process with improved control over film thickness and reduced oil losses.Fig. 2: 3D engineering overview of the Closed Mould Oiling Machine, including the mould.Fig. 3: 3D model of the oil supply and pump system for controlled mould oiling.
