Mobile asphalt drum mixing plant

The mobile drum asphalt plant has attracted much attention for its unique design and flexible maneuverability. When the equipment is running, the forward rotation is used for drying, and the reverse rotation is used for discharging. The design of the central air intake makes the structure of the asphalt drum mixers simple and clear, and it is easy and convenient to operate.

Moreover, it is equipped with PLC programmable centralized control and touch screen operation, and the automatic and manual modes can be switched freely. Its mobile chassis structure is a highlight, and both transportation and installation can be completed quickly and efficiently.

Batch type mobile asphalt batching plant

It is unique in its production process. Taking the mobile asphalt batching plant as an example. It adopts an intermittent drying drum and a double-horizontal mixing cylinder as an overall design. This design makes the mixing process more thorough and the quality of the finished product is even better.

Environmentally friendly asphalt plant

Environmentally friendly asphalt stations have emerged under the increasingly stringent environmental protection requirements and have become the focus of the industry. This type of asphalt station incorporates many innovative technologies in its design to achieve a balance between efficient production and environmental protection.

From the perspective of waste gas treatment, it is equipped with an advanced bag dust collector and cyclone dust collector combination system. In terms of asphalt fume treatment, a combination of spray absorption and activated carbon adsorption is used to effectively remove harmful components in asphalt fume and reduce the impact of odor on the surrounding environment.

In the material handling link, environmentally friendly asphalt stations are also unique. Aggregate conveying adopts a fully enclosed belt corridor to prevent dust from escaping during aggregate transportation.

At the same time, the mixing cylinder is optimized to reduce the leakage and volatilization of materials during mixing. In terms of energy utilization, some environmentally friendly asphalt stations use a waste heat recovery system to recycle the waste heat generated by the drying drum for preheating aggregates or other processes, improve energy utilization and reduce energy consumption.

How to operate asphalt plant

Before starting the equipment

Before starting the asphalt station equipment, a comprehensive and detailed inspection is essential. For environmentally friendly asphalt stations, it is also necessary to check the environmental protection treatment equipment. You can also visit the closest asphalt plant to get help.

Equipment in operation

During the operation of the equipment, the operator must always maintain a high degree of concentration. Pay close attention to the operating status of the equipment, including the display data of each instrument, such as temperature, pressure, metering data, etc.

At the same time, pay attention to whether the equipment has abnormal sounds or vibrations. Once found, it should be stopped for inspection immediately, and continue to operate after troubleshooting. In addition, the equipment should be cleaned regularly to prevent material residues from affecting the performance of the equipment.

Equipment maintenance

Regular maintenance is the key to extend the service life of asphalt plant equipment and ensure its stable operation. After each use, the residual materials in the equipment should be cleaned in time to prevent the materials from hardening and accumulating and causing damage to the equipment. Regularly check the wear of various components, such as mixing blades, conveyor belts, vibrating screens, etc., and replace the seriously worn components in time.

The lubrication system of the equipment should also be maintained, and lubricating oil should be added or replaced regularly. At the same time, the electrical system should be inspected and maintained to prevent the electrical components from being damp and aging, and to ensure the electrical safety of the equipment. In addition, according to the equipment's instruction manual, the equipment should be regularly inspected and debugged to ensure that the performance indicators of the equipment meet the requirements.
