Seems a nice machine and well built. Now some critique. May I suggest you do a internet search for ECB machines to garner information on what is presently available.

This appears to be designed as a single purpose unit, which is like buying singlr purpose kitchen appliances each with it’s own motor. Better solution is to have one well designed drive base with numerious well designed and built attachments.

May I suggest a redesign of the moulding area so that users can easily swap moulds to produce a vatiety of products ie. different type and size bricks ( locking, hollow etc. ) roofing tiles flooring tiles etc., etc., etc. Make this machine more versatile.

Horizontal compaction would result in a more uniformly accurate height, which in conjunction with locking bricks would make dry stacked a better build. May I suggest that instead of flipping the machind to horizontal, to flip the mould in order to acive the same.

There are a couple of organizations in India that have been experimenting in this for many years with goverment and U.N. sponcership. There is an organization in South Africa that has conducted dry wall destructive testing for earthquake properties. Check all these out by spending a couple of days surfing and gaining futher insights. As it stands at present your very good machine is also very limiting in it’s use at present.

I am in the market for a unit. Would love to hear your reply. Thanks. All the best.

This appears as a very disorganised site. In trying to access CEB Liberator informatin it is scattered all over this site. Would be far less fustrating if it had been consolidated under one tab. The same applies to other applications.

I observe many people asking various questions with no responce from the principals. Also no ” contact us ” information i.e. phone number, address, email address all in one place.

If you want to seriously market your products then there needs to be efficient dialogue, which at present does not exist.

As far as your CEB unit goes, you spent a lot of time reinventing the wheel. Time which could have been better applied to improving existing designs. The design for the Cinva Ram CEB machine ( manual ) is obtainable for $ 50 from Dirtcheapbuilder.com It may not be as good as yours and if so you should have spent your time improving upon it rather than starting form scratch. Auroville Earth Institute is a non-profit NGO located in India too makes a manual machine that uses multiple style moulds to produce a variety of building bricks trageted to specialised applications. They have been in this field for many more years and work in collaboration with the UN and various world goverments. Yours appears more on the lines of a ego venture with a lot of wasted money in duplicated effort.

Your automatic unit appears good but very limited in usage. It would have served a purpose if it had been designed to use the various moulds from Auroville ( collaborative improvement ). Making your unit more veasatile and able to produce a multitude of CEB products i.e. roofing tiles, flooring tiles etc.

Lastly where does one go to order your products either finished or blue prints.

Hope you choose to reply.
