Basic ways to build asphalt mixing plant

Bitumen, a black or brown petroleum-like material, has a viscosity ranging from a viscous liquid to a glassy solid. It can be obtained as a residue separated from natural deposits. Bitumen consists of hydrogen and carbon compounds with small amounts of nitrogen, sulfur and oxygen. The preparation of mixed materials for mixing with asphalt is done in several steps:
Prediction: According to the asphalt recipe, the individual components of the aggregate are weighed. Usually this is done using a belt scale, since the material must go to the next step in a continuous flow.

Safety is the key point for any piece of equipment, and asphalt mixers are of course no exception. What I want to share with you is the knowledge in this area, that is, the safe operation specifications of asphalt mixers. You might as well pay attention to it.
In order to prevent the asphalt mixer from moving during work, the equipment should be placed in a flat position as much as possible, and at the same time, use square wood to pad the front and rear axles so that the tires are elevated. At the same time, the asphalt mixer must be provided with secondary leakage protection, and it can only be started after the inspection, trial operation and other aspects are qualified.

Asphalt mixing equipment is equipment used to produce asphalt concrete in large quantities. Because this equipment is affected by various factors during the production process, some problems will inevitably occur after a period of use. Sinoroader Group The editor of the asphalt mixing equipment company of China Machinery Co., Ltd. will introduce to you the methods of rescuing damaged parts in asphalt mixing equipment.
Asphalt mixing equipment encounters different problems, and the solutions are also different. For example, one of the common problems of asphalt mixing equipment is that parts are worn out and damaged. The solution that needs to be done at this time is to start from the production of parts. Just start improving.

When an ordinary asphalt mixing station completes the mixing operation, it will cause great pollution to the surrounding environment. In order to solve this problem, environmentally friendly asphalt mixing equipment came into being. What are the characteristics of this type of equipment?

1.During the operation of asphalt mixing station equipment, in addition to ensuring that the asphalt mixing station equipment is in good condition, it should also be equipped with a mineral moisture content detector and a finished material tester, and the relevant data should be frequently tested for the operator to adjust the operation in time, so as to keep the equipment in good condition.
2. In addition to affecting production capacity, the moisture content of mineral materials is also the main factor that determines fuel consumption. Additional material sheds should be added.
3. Before operation, all working parts and devices of the asphalt mixing station equipment should be fully checked to see if they are intact and normal. If there is a problem, it must be properly handled before operation, and it is forbidden to operate with illness.

It is inevitable that the asphalt mixing plant will have insufficient pumping force during use. In fact, during the construction process, as long as the asphalt mixing station is operated in accordance with regulations, and the accessories are cleaned and replaced in time, the asphalt mixing plant will generally not have insufficient pumping force. Now the editor of the asphalt mixing station manufacturer briefly introduces the common solutions to insufficient pumping force of asphalt mixing plant as follows.

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.

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 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 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.

In my country, most of the raw materials used in highway construction are asphalt, so asphalt mixing plants have also developed rapidly. However, under the situation of rapid economic development in my country, the problems of asphalt pavement have gradually increased, so the market requirements for asphalt quality have become higher and higher.
There are many factors that affect the quality of asphalt. In addition to the need for asphalt mixing plant equipment to meet conventional requirements, the ratio of raw materials is also very important. At present, my country’s existing industry specifications indicate that the maximum particle size of the asphalt mixture used on the upper layer of the highway cannot exceed half of the thickness, and the maximum particle size of the aggregate of the middle asphalt mixture cannot exceed two-thirds of the thickness of the layer, and the maximum size of the structural layer cannot exceed one-third of the same layer.

Any kind of mechanical equipment must go through precise design, testing and other processes before it can be manufactured, and the same is true for asphalt mixing stations. According to the survey, the following stages are necessary for any asphalt mixing plant.
First of all, the main technical parameters of the product to be designed must be determined according to market needs, so construction market research, data analysis and other links are indispensable. Secondly, the ideal working principle and the plan to realize this principle will be determined through innovative conception and optimization screening. , a schematic diagram of the overall design scheme should also be given.

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.

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:

Judging from the current situation of domestic highway construction, asphalt mixing stations will also achieve great development for a long time to come. This is also a result of rapid economic development. However, we have found that more and more quality problems occur when constructing asphalt pavements in modern times. Therefore, we have to put forward more stringent requirements for the quality of asphalt.

The drying and heating system of the asphalt mixing plant can be regarded as an important part of the whole, so in actual work, it treats the material in a countercurrent heating manner, thereby achieving full dehydration of the cold aggregate, and heating it to a certain temperature, thereby providing the necessary conditions for the normal and continuous operation of the asphalt mixing plant.
During the entire heating process of the asphalt mixing plant, the main purpose is to make the performance of the mixture more in line with the requirements of use, and to make the finished material have good paving performance. Under normal circumstances, the heating temperature of the aggregate is about 160℃-180℃.

Asphalt mixing station is the standard for mixing asphalt. Having said that, many people still think that this has nothing to do with us. We don’t use asphalt, but do you know that our roads are made of asphalt? When I was a child, I used asphalt to pluck pig hair. The hair on the pig’s head was indeed clean. When using asphalt, it must be burned hot, because if it is cold, it will be very hard and cannot be used. Therefore, if a large amount of asphalt is needed, there must be an asphalt mixer because there is no more convenient equipment than it.
What kind of source material is asphalt that requires special equipment. Asphalt is a black-brown, high-viscosity organic liquid composed of hydrocarbons and non-metallic substances of different molecular weights. The surface is black and soluble in carbon disulfide. At the same time, it is also a waterproof, moisture-proof and anti-corrosion organic gelling material. It can be mainly divided into three types: coal tar asphalt, petroleum asphalt and natural asphalt. Asphalt is mainly used in industries such as coatings, plastics, rubber, and paving roads.

In recent years, asphalt pavement has dominated highway surfaces. With the rapid development of our country’s national economy, highway traffic volume is increasing, axle loads are increasing rapidly, vehicle speeds are increasing, and there are more and more quality problems occurring on asphalt pavements. Some are damaged after repair, and some have a service life of up to Less than design age. This has put forward increasingly higher requirements for the quality of asphalt pavement, and an important factor affecting the performance of asphalt surface layers is the gradation composition of the mixture. This article discusses the mix design of asphalt mixture.

The quality of asphalt mixture directly determines the quality of asphalt pavement engineering. This article discusses the key points of supervision of ordinary highway asphalt plants in order to better monitor the quality of asphalt mixture.

With the strengthening of the trend of environmental protection and energy conservation, the environmental protection of asphalt mixing plants has gradually become the mainstream form of mixing plant development. What kind of equipment can be called an environmentally friendly asphalt mixing plant? What are the basic conditions that must be met?
First of all, as an environmentally friendly asphalt mixing plant, it must meet the requirement of using less energy consumption during use. That is to say, under the conditions of the same quantity and quality, less energy is consumed during the operation process, including various resources such as water and electricity.
Secondly, environmentally friendly asphalt mixing plants not only require less energy consumption, but also must achieve higher production efficiency, while also reducing carbon emissions in the entire production process, so as to meet the proposed low-carbon production requirements

The application of asphalt mixing plants also involves selection issues. In order to give full play to the performance of the equipment, the model of the machine is mainly determined according to the actual situation of the construction site. It sounds relatively simple, but some details still need to be emphasized.
The so-called specific conditions of the construction site first include the size of the site; secondly, the properties, specifications and working dimensions of the enterprise’s supporting equipment. It is necessary to try to do a good job in all aspects to help improve production efficiency and ensure product quality. In the case of intensive network management, the network management function of the asphalt mixing plant must also be taken into account to avoid difficulties in future upgrades.

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 mixer plant 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.

The mobile forced asphalt mixing equipment adopts intermittent drying cylinder, double forced mixer, the main machine can be towed, small footprint, short installation cycle, convenient operation and maintenance, good stability, high degree of automation, high degree of standardization, and high quality of finished products, and the technology of continuous improvement. The mobile forced asphalt mixing plant is suitable for high-grade road asphalt paving and maintenance.
1. The combined structure of the drum dryer and the batching machine is installed on a movable bracket for easy movement.
2. The asphalt mixing plant is equipped with a double horizontal shaft to boil the aggregate and ensure uniform mixing.
3. In the densely arranged hanging barrels, the hot aggregate rises vertically. This lifting tool is easy to use and reliable.
4. For accurate weighing of aggregates, asphalt and powder ore, a measuring scale is used, which contains a weighing sensor for electronic measurement.
5. The movement of the power material follows a closed spiral path, which ensures little material loss and provides safe transfer.
6. On the cyclone burner, high-pressure oil is sprayed out and quickly atomized. In the combustion chamber, the material is fed in a spiral manner and automatically ignited by the oil mist, which ensures combustion efficiency. The cylindrical barrel of the burner is separated from the burner head. The furnace cavity can be pushed in and pulled out, which is convenient for replacing the damaged side column bricks inside the burner. The entire burner has a large heat capacity and high thermal strength. This is cost-effectiveness.

Asphalt mixing stations are constructed according to a certain process, which can not only ensure the construction quality, but also ensure that the asphalt mixing station is not damaged. Although construction details are critical, the key skills of asphalt mixing station construction must be mastered.
Before the construction of the asphalt mixing plant, the top surface of the asphalt mixing station construction range should be removed, and the site elevation should be kept dry and flat to meet the design requirements. If the surface is too soft, the foundation should be reinforced to prevent the construction machinery from losing stability and ensure that the pile frame is vertical.
Then the on-site construction machinery should be inspected to ensure that the machinery is intact and assembled and tested under the premise of meeting the requirements. To ensure the verticality of the asphalt mixing plant, the deviation of the gantry guide and the mixing shaft from the verticality of the ground shall not exceed 1.0%. Asphalt mixer manufacturer.

In today’s road construction, the use of a large number of road construction machinery represents the entry into the era of highway mechanization. For users, the goal is to use road construction machinery reasonably and tap its potential as much as possible. However, road construction machinery requires various accessories to work together. Now let’s take the asphalt mixing plant as an example to see what commonly used accessories and equipment are available.
Asphalt mixing plant equipment is a relatively complex system, which includes many equipment, mainly nine parts, namely: bag dust removal, finished material temporary storage warehouse, grading machine, fast heating asphalt tank, asphalt barrel removal machine, asphalt recycled material crushing and screening system, coal block crusher, coal mill and dust removal equipment, etc.

The basic working principle of the green asphalt mixing plants can be roughly summarized in the following ways:
To put it simply, an asphalt plant is actually a set of equipment that can mix several materials according to a predetermined ratio to form a relatively uniform mixture. It is currently widely used and is very important for the construction of different projects. Its performance Various aspects also have a great impact on the engineering quality of asphalt pavement.
Asphalt mixing plant equipment is usually divided into two structures. The intermittent type is relatively more complex in structure and process. The aggregates need to be screened twice and then measured in batches. The batching accuracy is higher. , the mixing quality is good and can meet different construction requirements. The continuous type has a slightly lower accuracy due to its simple structure and simplified operating procedures.

Mechanism to avoid asphalt damage in asphalt mixing plant
1. Asphalt operators should undergo physical examination. Anyone suffering from conjunctivitis, skin disease or allergic reaction to asphalt should not engage in asphalt work.
2. Asphalt operators must apply protective ointment on exposed parts of their skin, and a first aid kit should be provided on the construction site.
3. The factory uniforms and protective equipment of asphalt operators are stored in a centralized manner and are prohibited from being worn home or entering collective dormitories.
4. The transfer of lumpy asphalt should usually be carried out at night and on cloudy days, especially during hot seasons. Small machinery should be used for loading and unloading, and it should not be lifted and transported directly by hand.

The core of the asphalt mixing plant is its electronic control system. If it has problems, it will cause a lot of trouble to use. However, in actual use, the electronic control system in the asphalt mixing plant will inevitably encounter some problems and failures. How to solve it at this time?
If only the instrument display of the electronic control system of the asphalt mixing plant is inaccurate, it means that the weighing system may be affected by external forces; or the drift error of the sensor causes the weighing zero position or weighing interval to change; it may also be caused by sensor damage.

Asphalt mixing equipment is a large-scale equipment, so you must pay attention to safety when using it to avoid accidents. But to put it simply, if you want to truly use it safely, you must master some basic common sense. The following main things must be kept in mind.
