Machine for molding composite matter and a method of producing ceramics-based composite

A method of producing composite based on calcium phosphate ceramics mixed with curdlan, wherein

• into a water suspension containing 76-175 grams of β-1,3-glucan, hereinafter referred to as curdlan, per one litre of water calcium phosphate ceramics in the form of porous granules weighing from 415 to 800 g, are added and mixed until a composite matter having homogeneous consistency has been achieved and then preliminary moulding takes place wherein
• a preform trough is manually precisely filled with a matter which is pushed by a force generated by push rods (7) of a dosing unit (6) moved by a linear drive (3) into a detachable mould wherein
• a portioning assembly comprises a dosing unit, equipped with at least one linearly driven push rod, and an exchangeable preliminary molding unit, equipped with at least one trough, are slidingly mounted on a plate of a carriage which is connected to linear drive (3), wherein
• each portion of the matter is rammed separately 10-13 times until consistency containing less than 15% of air is achieved and, after ramming, the matter together with the detachable mould is being kept for 5-120 minutes in temperatures between 80-100° C., and after that a finished composite product is removed from the detachable mould.
