Sanitary Ceramics Production Line and Factory Setup

A sanitary ceramics production line is an industrial system designed to manufacture washbasins, toilets, and related sanitary ware from ceramic bodies through slip preparation, high-pressure casting, drying, glazing, firing, and packaging. The process requires precise control of slip properties, casting cycles, drying, and high-temperature firing to achieve strength, surface quality, and dimensional accuracy.

Main raw materials include clay, kaolin, feldspar, silica, water, glaze materials, and colorants. Core equipment consists of ball mills, blungers, high-pressure casting systems, microwave or tunnel dryers, robotic glazing systems, and tunnel kilns.

The Industrial Department supports new investors establishing a sanitary ceramics factory and existing plant owners requiring repair, overhaul, capacity expansion, or automation. Projects may start from an empty site or from an operating facility needing technical upgrading.

Engineering, machinery supply or manufacturing, installation, commissioning, and technical support can be provided for projects in Iran, Iraq, Kurdistan Region, Afghanistan, and other regional markets under defined contractual scopes.

Production Line Overview

The sanitary ceramics line is a multi-stage ceramic process. Capacity is determined during engineering (typical high-pressure casting systems can produce several hundred pieces per day depending on number of modules). The process sequence is: slip preparation, high-pressure casting, demolding, drying, glazing (often robotic), firing in tunnel kiln (around 1230 °C), inspection, and packaging.

Main machinery includes ball mill, blunger, high-pressure casting system (e.g. pressure around 19.5 bar, multiple cycles per hour), microwave or controlled dryer, robotic glazing system, and tunnel kiln.

Supporting infrastructure covers electrical power, gas for the kiln, process water, and large building space. Manpower is typically 15–30 persons per shift. Required area is typically 1000–3000 m².

Support can be examined for projects in Iran, Iraq, Kurdistan Region (Erbil, Sulaymaniyah, Duhok), Baghdad, Basra, Mosul, Afghanistan (Kabul, Herat, Mazar-e-Sharif), Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Syria, Oman, Jordan, Turkey, Armenia, and Georgia.

Manufacturing Process

  1. Slip Preparation – Raw materials are milled and mixed into a controlled slip.
  2. High-Pressure Casting – Slip is injected under pressure into porous molds to form the green ware.
  3. Demolding and Drying – Pieces are removed and carefully dried.
  4. Glazing – Glaze is applied, often by robotic systems for uniformity.
  5. Firing – Pieces are fired in a tunnel kiln at approximately 1230 °C.
  6. Inspection and Packaging – Quality control and packaging.

Machinery & Equipment

  • Ball Mill and Blunger – Prepare the ceramic slip.
  • High-Pressure Casting System – Forms complex sanitary shapes efficiently.
  • Dryer – Controlled drying (microwave or conventional).
  • Robotic Glazing – Applies uniform glaze layers.
  • Tunnel Kiln – High-temperature firing.

Support is available for design, manufacturing or procurement, installation, commissioning, repair, overhaul, refurbishment, automation, and spare parts.
