Aggregate drying system of asphalt mixer

The materials used in asphalt mixtures contain a lot of dust. When the equipment is operating, if the dust enters the atmosphere, it will cause pollution. Therefore, dust removal equipment must be installed, and now bag dust removal is the main method. Safety is a common sense issue. There are well-established standard safety rules.
Do not clean, oil or adjust any mechanical equipment that is not specifically explained during operation; turn off the power and lock it before inspection or repair activities to prepare for accidents. Because each situation has its own particularity. Therefore, be vigilant about safety damage issues, incorrect operation issues and other deficiencies. All of them may lead to accidents, personal injuries, reduced production efficiency, and more importantly, loss of life. Careful and early prevention is the best way to avoid accidents.
Careful and correct maintenance can make the equipment work more efficiently and control it within a certain level of pollution; the maintenance of each component should be carried out according to its operating standards; maintenance plans and safe operation procedures should be formulated according to the inspection and repair conditions that must be carried out.
Take out a work log to record all inspection and repair conditions, list the analysis of each inspection of each component and the description of the repair content or the date of the repair; the second step is to give the inspection cycle for each component, which should be determined according to the service life and wear condition of each component.

Asphalt mixing equipment is also divided into fixed and mobile types. There are still big differences between the two to a certain extent. Let’s take a look at the design of mobile asphalt mixing equipment. What advantages can bring to the equipment?

The asphalt mixing plant is a complete set of equipment for mass production of asphalt concrete. The whole machine of the equipment consists of multiple systems, such as batching system, drying system, combustion system, powder supply system and dust prevention system. Each system is an important part of the asphalt mixing plant.
The working condition of the combustion system of the asphalt mixing plant has a great impact on the whole system, which is related to the economic efficiency of the whole system, temperature control accuracy and flue gas emission indicators. This article will briefly introduce how to judge the working condition of the combustion system of the asphalt mixing plant.
Generally speaking, due to the complexity of the detection equipment and methods, there are no conditions to achieve in the working process of most asphalt mixing plants. Therefore, it is more convenient to judge the working condition by a series of relatively intuitive factors such as the color, brightness and shape of the flame. This method is very simple and effective.

At present, the assembly and installation technology of large-scale asphalt concrete mixing equipment in high-grade highway construction is gradually improving. In order to improve work efficiency, it is necessary to analyze the pretreatment agent for the selection and matching of large-scale mixing equipment and auxiliary equipment, and clarify the installation and commissioning of asphalt stations. With the continuous change of highway construction methods, it is necessary to adopt production equipment according to the requirements of the development of the times. Intermittent asphalt mixing equipment is a widely used road construction equipment with the characteristics of simple operation and high work efficiency. Relevant staff are required to master the installation, construction and management methods of mixing equipment.

With the rapid development of highway construction and the increase in demand for asphalt, barreled bitumen has been widely used for its convenient transportation and easy storage. In particular, most of the high-performance imported bitumen used in high-grade highways is in barrel form, which requires an bitumen melter equipment with fast melting speed, clean debarreling, and prevention of asphalt aging.
The upper part of the debarreler of the bitumen melter equipment is hotter, and each barrel is directly heated by the heat transfer oil coil. The barrel wall directly bears the heat radiation of the heating coil. The asphalt is cleanly and sensitively debarreled, and there will be no waste of asphalt hanging barrels. According to the principle of layered heating, four-layer heating technology is adopted, with single inlet and single outlet of heat transfer oil, and high thermal efficiency of heating; at the same time, the waste heat of combustion exhaust gas is used for secondary heating, and power is effectively used; the debarreler body is insulated with high-quality rock wool material. It is suitable for various types of imported and domestic barrels, and the deformation of asphalt barrels will not affect production.

Asphalt mixing plant, also known as asphalt concrete mixing plant, asphalt mixing equipment. Refers to a complete set of equipment used for mass production of asphalt concrete. According to the mixing method, it can be divided into intermittent type and continuous type; according to the transportation method, it can be divided into fixed type, semi-fixed type and mobile type.

Asphalt (composition: asphaltenes and resin) tanks are divided into: intermittent and continuous functions according to the production process: initial batching of aggregates, heating and drying, screening and measurement; heating and insulation of asphalt (composition: asphaltene and resin) , transportation and measurement; transportation and measurement of filler; uniformly mix the measured aggregate, asphalt (composition: asphaltene and resin), and filler into a finished product of a certain temperature.

In general, the development of my country’s asphalt mixing plant industry is very rapid. In the ton segment, it quickly occupied most of the market share. And with the advancement of technology, it can basically meet the current development needs. However, the total demand for some large-scale asphalt mixing plants has not increased or decreased. What are the reasons?
If we analyze from multiple angles, it is not difficult to find that these reasons are also some of the problems faced by my country’s current asphalt mixing plantindustry. These problems are summarized as follows:

Asphalt mixing plants are large-scale products with high professional and technical requirements, and are composed of multiple systems. Among them, asphalt tanks are also a very critical part. Whether it is manufacturing, debugging or installation, it needs to be operated according to the actual application needs of users.
In addition to the manufacturing, debugging and installation, which need to be operated by installers, the maintenance of asphalt tanks in asphalt mixing plants must also be managed by professionals. At the same time, they must strictly follow all safety rules to operate. Before operation, they must be proficient in the relevant requirements and based on the regulations and safety instructions for storing and handling hot asphalt.

The mixing speed of asphalt mixing plant equipment is indeed very fast, and the corresponding mixing power must be very high, but the specific amount must be measured in a certain way to determine the scope of use of asphalt mixing equipment. There are many methods to measure the mixing power of asphalt mixing equipment, but the relatively small errors are the motor counter-torque measurement method and the strain measurement method.
When the motor of the asphalt mixing equipment starts running, the electromagnetic moment acting on the motor rotor and the electromagnetic moment acting on the motor stator are equal, but their directions are opposite. Therefore, as long as the torque acting on the stator is measured, the torque on the rotor can be obtained, and the actual mixing torque is obtained after deducting the friction torque on the rotor bearing.
On the premise of knowing the torque and mixing speed, the mixing power of the asphalt mixing equipment can be calculated. This is the so-called motor counter-torque measurement method, which is relatively simple and suitable for smaller mixing systems.

[1]. Composition of intermittent asphalt mixing plant
The intermittent asphalt mixing plant mainly consists of cold material silo, cold material distribution system, cold material conveying system, combustion and drying system, ventilation and dust removal system, hot material elevator, vibrating screen, hot material silo, powder conveying system and asphalt conveying system. System, metering system, mixing cylinder, control system, finished material transportation and storage system, asphalt heating and insulation system, etc.
2. Discussing the phenomenon of warehouse cascading in asphalt concrete mixing plants
2.1 First, let’s introduce the structure and principle of vibrating screen. The main components include: RetentionRubber, SupportTube, vibrating screen drive system and supporting electrical components
The working principle is introduced as follows: hot aggregate is sent to the vibrating screen through the hot aggregate elevator, and the hot aggregate is vibrated and screened by the vibrating screen. Stones of different specifications enter their corresponding hot aggregate bins through the screen and cannot pass through the geotechnical work. The super-sized particles from the cloth screen enter the overflow bin and are sent out.

Conveying system of hot aggregate in asphalt mixing plant

Asphalt concrete mixing equipment generally uses conveyor belt conveyors to transport cold materials. Its main advantages are large conveying capacity, continuous operation, simple equipment structure and automatic control. However, belt deviation is a common fault, which directly affects the drying operation of the drying drum and also affects the production efficiency of the mixing equipment. Therefore, it is very important for the asphalt mixing station to solve the belt deviation problem at the operation site of the asphalt concrete mixing equipment.

Speaking of asphalt mixing plants, we are not unfamiliar with them. This is a unit equipment specially used for asphalt mixing. In fact, what we really lack understanding of is its gas system. Even the accumulated failures that often occur in the gas system of asphalt mixing plants are not very clear. Facts have proved that only by properly maintaining the various systems of the equipment can efficient production and good benefits be achieved.
The following are four types of gas system failures that often occur in asphalt mixing plants. Let’s analyze the causes of the problems behind the failures one by one.

Hot Recycled Asphalt Plant is a new type of asphalt mixing plant with advanced structure, mainly producing plant-mix hot recycling asphalt

Asphalt mixing plant is a very practical engineering machinery. Especially in the road construction process, it plays an irreplaceable role. Due to its importance, in addition to ensuring its own quality, the use and maintenance of the equipment must be carried out normally. Let’s learn about the daily maintenance requirements of asphalt mixing plants.

There is also a reversing valve in the asphalt mixing plant, which generally does not cause problems, so I have not understood its solutions in detail before. But in actual use, we encountered this kind of failure. How should we deal with it?
The failure of the reversing valve of the asphalt mixing station is not complicated, that is, the reversing is not timely, gas leakage, electromagnetic pilot valve failure, etc. The corresponding causes and solutions are of course different. For the reversing valve to not change direction in time, it is generally caused by poor lubrication, the spring is stuck or damaged, oil dirt or impurities get stuck in the sliding part, etc. For this, it is necessary to check the status of the lubricator and the quality of the lubricating oil. Viscosity, if necessary, the lubricant or other parts can be replaced.
After long-term use, the reversing valve is prone to wear of the valve core sealing ring, damage to the valve stem and valve seat, resulting in gas leakage in the valve. At this time, the sealing ring, valve stem and valve seat should be replaced, or the reversing valve should be replaced directly. In order to reduce the failure rate of asphalt mixers, maintenance must be strengthened on a daily basis.

When using the asphalt mixing plant, you should regularly check the fuel pressure regulating valve or pressure reducing valve to determine whether the surface of the locking nut on the adjustable bolt is clean and removable; if the surface of the screw or nut is too dirty or rusty, it needs to be repaired or Replace the regulating valve.
Check the oil pump regularly to determine whether the sealing device is intact and whether the internal pressure is stable, and replace any damaged or leaking sealing devices. When using hot oil, check whether all oil pipes are well insulated. The filter installed between the oil tank and the oil pump must be cleaned regularly and checked for excessive wear to ensure that the fuel reaches the oil pump smoothly from the oil tank and to reduce the possibility of potential component failure.

Natural gas is a colorless, odorless, flammable and explosive gas, the main component of which is methane, which accounts for about 98% of natural gas. The density of natural gas is lower than that of air and it is difficult to liquefy. Natural gas is not only a clean green energy for civil, commercial and industrial use, but also a raw gas for chemical industry. The theoretical ignition value of natural gas is 540 degrees, the combustion temperature is 1970 degrees, the calorific value is 40MJ/m3, and the explosion limit is 5%-15%. CNG refers to natural gas that has been compressed to 20-25MP and stored in high-pressure gas tank trucks, and then transported to various gas transmission points to supply gas to residential users, commercial users and industrial users. In order to ensure the normal operation and safety of the asphalt mixing station and our pressure regulating station, our company has specially formulated the following safety protection measures.

Asphalt mixing plant is a very practical engineering machinery. Especially in the road construction process, it plays an irreplaceable role. Due to its importance, in addition to ensuring its own quality, the use and maintenance of the equipment must be carried out normally. Let’s learn about the daily maintenance requirements of asphalt mixing plants.

Asphalt mixing plant is one of the main equipment for producing asphalt concrete. It can mix asphalt, gravel, cement and other materials together in a certain proportion to obtain the products required for highway construction. In order to ensure its operating effect, the asphalt mixing station also needs to be powered on for trial operation before it is officially put into work.
At the beginning of the test run, first run a single motor, and at the same time check whether the current, steering, insulation and mechanical transmission parts are operating normally. After confirming that each motor and mechanical transmission parts are operating correctly, conduct a joint trial run. During the entire process, it is necessary to conduct patrol inspections of key parts. If any abnormal noise is found, the cause should be identified and eliminated in a timely manner.

Asphalt mixing plant is a relatively important complete set of equipment in people’s lives. There are many components of this equipment, such as grading machine, vibrating screen, belt feeder, powder conveyor, elevator and other parts. Plug valve is one of them, so what is the specific role of plug valve in asphalt mixing plant? This article will give a brief introduction.
The plug valve is first of all a closure or plunger-shaped rotary valve. Generally, it is necessary to rotate 90 degrees to make the channel opening on the valve plug the same as that on the valve body, or to split it to play the role of opening or closing. The shape of the plug valve in the asphalt mixing plant is generally cylindrical or conical.

What should I do when the reversing valve in the asphalt mixing plant fails? The editor has a trick:
1. The reversing valve cannot be reversed or the reversing action is slow, which is generally caused by poor lubrication, stuck or damaged springs, oil or impurities stuck in the sliding parts. In this regard, you should first check whether the oil mist is working normally; whether the viscosity of the lubricating oil is appropriate. If necessary, the lubricating oil should be replaced, the sliding part of the reversing valve should be cleaned, or the spring and reversing valve should be replaced.

Due to certain restrictions on the current development status and conditions, the profits of the domestic asphalt pavement construction industry are getting lower and lower. Therefore, in the process of using asphalt mixing plants for production, on the one hand, the quality of the products and customer requirements must be ensured. , on the other hand, it is necessary to reduce production costs. Therefore, cost management is very important, and refined management should be implemented in this regard.
First, for device management. Since equipment is the foundation and key of production, in the cost management of asphalt mixing stations, the management of equipment plays an important role in reducing costs. Only by managing the equipment well can the normal working status be ensured, which provides the necessary guarantee for the smooth progress of the project. In fact, in today’s highway projects, equipment costs account for a large part of the cost and profit. The huge profits after the construction of a highway will be greatly affected by the management of materials and equipment.

Asphalt mixing equipment mainly consists of batching system, drying system, incineration system, hot material improvement, vibrating screen, hot material storage bin, weighing mixing system, asphalt supply system, powder supply system, dust removal system, product silo and control system, etc. Some composition.

Asphalt mixing plants are highly professional equipment with complex systems. It is inevitable that some failures will occur during use. So, what are the common hardware failures of asphalt mixing plants? Do you know?
(I) Because its system is relatively complex, when different components have problems, the problems caused may be different. If during the operation, it is found that the material addition of each silo is inaccurate, this problem may be due to the failure of the sensor of the asphalt mixing plant. At this time, the machine should be stopped for inspection and replaced with a new sensor if necessary. It may also be caused by the jamming of the scale bar. At this time, foreign objects should be removed in time.
