MEC Evolution-20 Concrete Block Machine

Fully automatic concrete block machine

MEC Evolution-20 concrete block machine is based entirely on electromechanical operations. It is equipped with a new servo technology. The design of the machine is based on decades of experience in tested, constantly evolving mechanical solutions and new solutions developed as a result of active development cooperation with customers, for the needs of efficient production.

Concrete intelligence and efficiency

The control system is concretely smart and extremely versatile, but still really user-friendly and easy to use. Improved servo gear motor technology guarantees precise and fast movements in all conditions and improves energy efficiency totally to a new level.

The new web-based services are designed to support maximizing production efficiency and responding quickly to any need. New solutions also enable an extensive selection of predictive maintenance and real-time diagnostic services.
