In modern road construction, the quality of asphalt material directly affects the durability and construction efficiency of the road. With the expansion of infrastructure and environmental protection policies, traditional asphalt mixing equipment has been difficult to meet the needs of modern engineering. With its innovative design, intelligent production and green environmental protection characteristics, the asphalt drum mixing plant is becoming a "golden partner" for road construction enterprises to improve quality and efficiency.
This article aims to explain why drum asphalt mixing plants have become a new construction project of choice and discuss their advantages.
What is asphalt drum Mixing plant?
Asphalt drum mixing plant, also known as drum type asphalt mixing plant, is a drum type dry method to heat and stir asphalt mixture equipment. Compared with traditional mixing equipment, the asphalt drum mixing plant, through its unique design, can continuously produce asphalt mixtures without significant intermittent pauses in the production process.
This equipment is usually composed of heating cylinders, silos, screening systems, stirring systems, combustion systems and exhaust systems, which can efficiently and quickly mix raw materials (such as asphalt, minerals, fillers, etc.) to produce a stable quality asphalt mixture.
Why asphalt drum mixing plant becomes a helper to innovate road construction efficiency?
Break through traditional technology
The traditional batch mixing plant often faces the problem of low efficiency due to the problems of production process segmentation and high heat loss. The drum asphalt mixing plant adopts the "continuous integration" production mode, which is uninterrupted from aggregate drying and heating to asphalt mixture discharging, and the production efficiency is increased by more than 30%.
- Reduction of erection time：The daily output can reach hundreds of tons, which can easily meet the needs of large-scale projects such as highway expansion.
- Reduce energy consumption：The recycling rate of heat energy in the drum is high, and the fuel cost is 15%-20% less than that of the intermittent equipment.
Environmental protection construction
Environmental performance becomes a key consideration in equipment procurement. Asphalt drum mixing plant through the triple environmental protection technology innovation, to achieve clean production, from the dust control, waste gas treatment and noise reduction of three aspects, to achieve a significant improvement in environmental performance.
- Multistage dust removal system：Combined with cyclone dust removal + bag dust removal + activated carbon adsorption, the dust capture rate is as high as 99%, and less dust can be seen on the job site.
- Low nitrogen combustion technology：Accurately control the combustion temperature, reduce nitrogen oxide emissions, and meet the national ultra-low emission standards for air pollutants.
Diversified Construction Demand
The application scenario of asphalt drum mixing plant is more and more extensive, not only limited to traditional highway construction, but also covers a number of fields. Whether it is high-grade highways, municipal roads, or airport runways, the drum asphalt mixing plant can show excellent adaptability.
- Construction in the high cold area：Equipped with low temperature starting system, it can still run stably under -20℃ environment. And support 30%-50% blending of waste asphalt mixture to reduce raw material cost.
- Customized service：According to customer capacity needs to provide free personalized configuration solutions, higher return on investment.
