Abstract: A molding station and method comprising a hopper having a mouth closable with at least a lower door and a mold to be filled, the hopper and the mold being movable to a filling position in which the hopper is closed by the lower door; the lower door then opening to allow an amount of moldable material to be released into the mold; the mold being made in a deformable material, so that an interior volume of the mold is temporarily reduced when releasing the moldable material into the mold.

Abstract: A device allowing concrete products sorted on a traveling conveyor to be formed in a predetermined pattern of products for subsequent feeding onto a concrete product stacking cuber. A set of pneumatic wheels located downstream of the conveyor and vertically distanced from the conveyor cooperate with a rubber lined shaft located under the wheels to contact the concrete product to act as a gate to the predetermined pattern. The wheels and the shaft are driven in synchronization to rotate in a direction as to cause the pattern of concrete products to be forwarded therebetween to the stacking cuber.
