Where ARTON Gas Block Quality Control Begins
The quality of a finished product depends not only on equipment settings and final inspection. At our production facility, quality control begins even before the mixture is prepared: the factory laboratory evaluates raw materials and helps technologists maintain the required parameters.
Quartz sand, cement, lime, a gas-forming agent, gypsum raw materials, and water are used in production. Each component is checked for compliance with regulatory requirements and suitability for the technological process. This control makes it possible to identify deviations before production begins.
Once the quality of the components has been confirmed, the laboratory, together with the technologist, adjusts the formulation when necessary, taking into account the properties of the raw materials and the requirements for the future aerated concrete mass. Therefore, a high-quality building material begins with properly prepared components.
When selecting products, we consider their intended use, the characteristics of the construction site, and project requirements. Gas silicate and aerated concrete materials are evaluated based on a combination of characteristics. Therefore, when selling products, the price of gas blocks from the manufacturer is considered alongside their technical parameters.
How the Laboratory Monitors Aerated Concrete Production
We carry out quality control at every stage of production, ensuring that customers who want to buy ARTON gas blocks can be confident in product quality. After incoming inspection, laboratory work continues directly during production. Specialists monitor component dosing, temperature conditions, the maturation of the concrete mass, and the development of plastic strength before autoclaving.
Autoclave treatment is part of an integrated system in which consistently maintaining the specified parameters is essential. The laboratory operates around the clock and monitors the main production stages. The data collected makes it possible to detect deviations promptly and maintain process stability. The main stages of production quality control include:
- checking raw material dosing and compliance with the formulation;
- monitoring the temperature and condition of the concrete mass;
- evaluating maturation and the development of plastic strength;
- checking the readiness of the concrete mass for autoclaving;
- recording results at all key stages.
We organize quality control so that production management and laboratory inspections complement each other. This is also important for delivery planning: when preparing products for a construction project, we consider the required volume and delivery schedule in advance. Logistics is linked to production planning, while wholesale orders and commercial calculations, including the cost of gas block delivery, depend on the shipment composition and agreed terms.
Which Properties Are Tested in Finished Gas Blocks
Before shipping our products to customers who contact ARTON to buy gas blocks in Tashkent or other cities of Uzbekistan, we carry out a final quality inspection. Each batch is assessed comprehensively. The final inspection covers the following parameters:
- compressive strength and compliance with the declared strength class;
- actual density of finished products;
- thermal conductivity and the material's ability to retain the required properties;
- frost resistance during repeated freezing and thawing cycles;
- drying shrinkage and vapor permeability;
- dimensional accuracy and geometry of each product.
Products with different characteristics are used for different purposes: wall blocks are suitable for certain structures, while partition blocks are intended for others. When necessary, we also consider additional elements, such as partitions designed for specific applications, so product selection is based on the project requirements.
Verified performance indicators help customers make practical choices. In the catalog, they can select the appropriate product type, clarify the required volume and delivery conditions, and then place an order. If gas blocks with delivery are required, ARTON specialists will help coordinate the batch specifications and shipment. In this way, we support our products from raw material inspection through to delivery to the customer.
