Production line and factory setup overview
A mould-based architectural-decoration line producing column shafts, bases and capitals from reinforced gypsum sections, using matched mould sets, internal support where needed, controlled curing, joint finishing and installation-ready packing.
Recommended lowest-entry line configuration Screen a limited classical or contemporary column family only after confirming column height, joint method, wall fixing and transport route with installers.
Production process and implementation sequence
- Column family and fixing design
- Slurry mixing and mould preparation
- Reinforced section casting
- Curing and demoulding
- Joint trimming and dry assembly
- Trial fit, packing and delivery
Products, capacity and market fit
- Use local gypsum only after test casting.
- Mould quality and controlled drying govern saleable finish.
- Launch with a focused design range and contractor samples.
- Decorative gypsum columns and capitals - Diameter, section length, straightness, joint alignment, reinforcement and fixing detail - Villas, hotels, event venues, decorators and façade/interior contractors
Core production machinery and line specifications
| Machine / stage | Function / value | Production note |
|---|---|---|
| Column shaft and capital mould sets | Forms matching architectural sections | Defined diameter/family |
| Reinforcement and joint fixtures | Protects handling and alignment | Installer-approved joints |
| Casting/drying supports | Maintains straightness | Section-length matched |
| Trial-assembly tools | Checks completed column | Fit before dispatch |
Raw materials, utilities and factory requirements
- Gypsum, water, glass fibre/hessian, approved inserts and repair compound

- Covered dry workshop and finished-goods storage
- Dust control, guarded tools and safe lifting
- Measured water, approved mould release and batch records
- Workshop electricity, ventilation and packing area
Indicative low-entry investment and implementation plan
These planning ranges prioritize economical machinery, local labor and local civil works. Final pricing follows confirmed capacity, product specification, delivery terms and site conditions.
| Scope | Indicative range | Entry-plan note |
|---|---|---|
| Mould sets, fixtures and worktables | US$8k-28k | One column family |
| Drying, assembly and packing equipment | US$5k-15k | Section handling scope |
| Indicative low-entry total | US$18k-55k | Land and working capital excluded |
