For bitumen pavement reconstruction equipment, two layers of separate pre-screening modules should be configured. The soil used in the raw materials, including the sand and gravel used, should be strictly inspected and pre-screened. They must meet the on-site application standards before they can enter the plastic belt pavement milling machine material crushing and screening equipment at the bottom. For example, the soil in the raw materials must be output through the pre-screening belt on the side to improve the equipment productivity and control costs.
Bitumen pavement raw materials are then mixed with bitumen mixture, transported, and constructed. Due to the effects of heating and different natural factors, the filter element will gradually age, and the colloidal solution structure will also change, which will cause the bitumen penetration to decrease, but the viscosity will increase, the elongation will decrease, and the composite fluidity, which reflects the rheological properties of bitumen, will also decrease. Bitumen is more obvious in terms of non-Newtonian properties.
In the construction of bitumen pavement, not only should we pay attention to the maintenance of the filter surface equipment, but also pay attention to the maintenance of raw materials. Only when the equipment is well maintained and the equipment is good, can the bitumen pavement have strong adhesion and long service life. For consumers, the paving of bitumen pavement also requires great attention to the selection of equipment. Good equipment is easier to use and can improve efficiency. Only such equipment is worth choosing.

    In modern highway maintenance work, how to repair asphalt pavement quickly and effectively has become one of the key issues. As an advanced repair technology, cold patching technology is very popular because of its convenient construction and remarkable effects.
    What is the cold patching process?
    Cold patching process, as the name suggests, refers to a technical method for repairing asphalt pavement without heating. This process uses a specially proportioned cold-patch asphalt mixture. This material can maintain good fluidity and adhesion even at lower temperatures, thus ensuring the quality of the repair.
    Advantages of cold patching process
    Fast construction: Cold patching materials can be directly applied to damaged areas without preheating, and are immediately open to traffic, greatly shortening repair time.
    All-weather construction: Whether in hot summer or cold winter, cold patching materials can be effectively constructed and are not affected by the weather.
    Easy to operate: Thanks to its good working properties, even small damaged areas can be repaired easily.
    Environmentally friendly: The construction process reduces environmental pollution and is in line with the concept of green construction.
    Application scenarios
    The cold patching process is suitable for various types of pavement repair work, especially those places where traffic needs to be restored quickly, such as urban main roads, highway ramps, etc. In addition, the cold patching process is also an ideal choice for remote areas or situations where professional heating equipment is lacking.
    In short, the cold patching process has occupied a place in the field of rapid repair of asphalt pavement with its unique advantages and has become an indispensable part of modern highway maintenance.

    Emulsified asphalt is an emulsion that disperses asphalt into the water phase to form a liquid at room temperature. This determines that emulsified asphalt has many technical and economic advantages over hot asphalt and diluted asphalt. We know that modified asphalt equipment is a road engineering machinery. In order to better promote users’ understanding of it, today the editor will introduce its characteristics to you so that users can better understand that modified asphalt equipment is used for modified asphalt. It consists of a main machine, a modifier feeding system, a finished product tank, a heat transfer oil reheating furnace and a microcomputer control system. The main machine is equipped with a mixing tank, a dilution tank, a colloid mill and an electronic weighing device. The entire production process is controlled by a computer automatic program. In addition, it can be learned that the product has the advantages of reliable quality, stable performance, accurate measurement, and convenient operation. It is an indispensable new equipment in highway construction. The advantages of asphalt equipment are prominently reflected in its two-way modification effect, that is, while greatly increasing the softening point of asphalt, it also significantly enhances the low-temperature ductility, improves the temperature sensitivity, and has a particularly large elasticity and recovery rate. The modified asphalt equipment has a long service life and a safe and reliable production process. The rotor and stator are specially heat treated, and the service life of the equipment is more than 15,000 hours.

    Asphalt spreader is used to spread the penetration oil, waterproof layer and bonding layer of the bottom layer of asphalt pavement of high-grade highway. It can also be used for the construction of county and township highway oil roads with layered paving technology. It consists of a car chassis, an asphalt tank, an asphalt pumping and spraying system, a thermal oil heating system, a hydraulic system, a combustion system, a control system, a pneumatic system, and an operating platform.
    Knowing how to properly operate and maintain the asphalt spreader can not only extend the service life of the equipment, but also enable the construction project to proceed smoothly. So what problems should the asphalt spreader pay attention to when working? The technicians of Gaoyuan Road Construction Machinery Equipment Co., Ltd. give you tips:
    1). Before use, please check whether the position of each valve is accurate and make preparations before work. After starting the motor of the asphalt spreader, check the four thermal oil valves and the pressure gauge. After everything is normal, start the engine and the power take-off starts to work. Test the asphalt pump and circulate for 5 minutes. If the pump head shell is hot, slowly close the thermal oil pump valve. If the heating is insufficient, the pump will not turn or make noise. In this case, the valve needs to be opened to continue heating the asphalt pump until it can operate normally. During the working process, the asphalt liquid must be kept at a working temperature of 160~180℃, and it cannot be filled too full (pay attention to the liquid level pointer during the injection of asphalt liquid, and check the tank mouth at any time). After the asphalt liquid is injected, the filling port must be closed tightly to prevent the asphalt liquid from overflowing during transportation.
    2). During use, asphalt may not be pumped in. At this time, it is necessary to check whether the interface of the asphalt suction pipe is leaking. When the asphalt pump and pipeline are blocked by solidified asphalt, a blowtorch can be used for baking, and the pump must not be forced to turn. When baking, care should be taken to avoid directly baking the ball valve and rubber parts.
    3). When spraying asphalt, the car should be driven at a low speed. Do not step on the accelerator hard, otherwise it may cause damage to the clutch, asphalt pump and other components. If 6m wide asphalt is spread, pay attention to obstacles on both sides at any time to prevent collision with the spreading pipe. At the same time, the asphalt should be kept in a large circulation state until the spreading work is completed. After the work is completed every day, if there is any remaining asphalt, it must be returned to the asphalt pool, otherwise it will solidify in the tank and cannot work next time.
    4). In addition, the emulsifier must also pay attention to daily maintenance:
    1. The emulsifier and delivery pump and other motors, agitators, and valves should be maintained daily.
    2. The emulsifier should be cleaned after work every day.
    3. The speed regulating pump used to control the flow should be regularly tested for accuracy, and adjusted and maintained in time. The asphalt emulsifier should regularly check the matching clearance between its stator and rotor. When the minimum clearance specified by the machine cannot be reached, the stator and rotor should be replaced.
    4. If the equipment is out of use for a long time, the liquid in the tank and pipeline should be emptied (the emulsifier aqueous solution should not be stored for a long time), the hole covers should be tightly closed, kept clean, and the running parts should be filled with lubricating oil. When it is used for the first time or when it is used again after a long period of inactivity, the rust in the tank should be removed, and the water filter should be cleaned regularly.
    5. Regularly check whether the terminal in the electric control cabinet is loose, whether the wires are worn during shipment, and remove dust to avoid damage to the machine parts. The frequency converter is a precision instrument. Please refer to the instruction manual for specific use and maintenance.
    6. There is a heat transfer oil coil in the emulsifier water solution heating stirring tank. When injecting cold water into the water tank, the heat transfer oil switch should be turned off first, and then the switch should be turned on to heat after adding the required amount of water. Pouring cold water directly into the high-temperature heat transfer oil pipeline can easily cause the weld to crack.

    Asphalt spreader is an irreplaceable tool for highway maintenance. Asphalt spreader is an irreplaceable tool for highway maintenance. Highway maintenance is divided into four categories according to the nature of the project, scale, and technical complexity: minor repair, medium repair, major repair, and improvement. Specific classification:
    (1) Minor repair and maintenance project: preventive maintenance and repair of slightly damaged parts of the highway and all its engineering facilities to keep them in good condition. It is usually planned and carried out daily by the maintenance team within the annual minor repair and maintenance quota funds on a monthly (ten-day) basis.
    (2) Medium repair project: regular repair and reinforcement of general wear and tear and local damage of highway engineering facilities to restore them to their original state. It is usually planned and implemented by grassroots road maintenance agencies on an annual (seasonal) basis.
    (3) Major repair project: periodic comprehensive repair of major damage to highway facilities to fully restore them to the original design standards, or local improvements and individual additions within the original technical level to gradually improve the highway’s traffic capacity. It is usually organized and implemented by grassroots road maintenance agencies or with the help of their superior agencies according to the approved annual project budget.
    (4) Improvement projects are large projects that improve the technical level of roads and their engineering facilities in stages and sections due to their inability to meet traffic volume and load requirements, or significantly improve traffic capacity through improvements. It is usually organized and implemented or completed through bidding by regional road maintenance agencies or provincial road maintenance agencies according to the approved plan and design budget.
