How does the modified asphalt equipment work? How is it heated?

No matter what product is used, after using it for a period of time, some large and small problems will inevitably arise, which will affect our work, just like the use of asphalt heating equipment will cause problems such as uneven asphalt pavement. We know that for the use of asphalt heating equipment, the construction of asphalt pavement is affected by many factors, including the quality of construction personnel, the quality of roadbed construction, the treatment of the two sections of the bridgehead culvert and the expansion joint of the bridge, the construction of the road subbase and base, the selection of road construction machinery and the quality of road materials. These are the main reasons affecting the flatness of the road surface.
In order to better help customers apply it, professionals introduce the use of asphalt heating equipment. Flatness is an important indicator for measuring the quality of high-grade pavement. Unsmooth pavement will increase driving resistance and cause additional vibrations in the vehicle, which will directly affect the safety and comfort of driving. At the same time, it will aggravate the damage of automobile parts and tires and increase fuel consumption.

Contemporary roads and pavements have undergone many changes: traffic volume and driving frequency have increased significantly, the axle load of logistics trucks has continued to increase, one-way driving in separate lanes has been widely implemented, and regulations have further improved the anti-flow resistance of the ground, that is, the work of modified asphalt equipment under high temperatures ability;

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.

For users of equipment, the amount of material used is the focus of every user. We should attach great importance to this link in the production process. The following is an analysis of the amount of emulsifier used by Gaoyuan manufacturers.
When emulsified asphalt equipment is emulsifying asphalt, the asphalt temperature is better controlled at above 130°C to have better fluidity; 2. The amount of emulsifier is generally 8-14‰ of emulsified asphalt, that is, 8-14kg per ton of emulsified asphalt (asphalt content is more than 50%), and the temperature is 60-70°C. The emulsifier should be used in the middle and upper limit of the production, 10 kg per ton of emulsified asphalt, or 20 kg per ton of water (asphalt content is 50%); the amount of BE-3 emulsifier is generally 18-25‰ of emulsified asphalt, that is, 18-25kg per ton of emulsified asphalt (asphalt content is more than 50%), and the emulsifier solution temperature is 60-70°C. The emulsifier should be used in the upper and middle limits in the first production to ensure successful production. Use 24 kg per ton of emulsified asphalt, or 48 kg per ton of water (asphalt content is 50%). After the production goes smoothly, the dosage can be reduced according to actual conditions.

Due to the incorporation of a certain proportion of water into the slurry sealing mixture, it is easy to evaporate in the air. After the water is evaporated, it will become dry and hardened. Therefore, after the slurry is formed, it not only looks very similar to fine-grained asphalt concrete, but does not affect the visual appearance of the road. It also has the same technical properties as fine-grained concrete in terms of wear resistance, anti-skid, waterproofing, and smoothness. Slurry seal technology is used in highway pavement maintenance because of its simple construction technology, short construction period, low cost, high quality, wide application, strong adaptability, etc. It is an asphalt with both economy and high efficiency. Pavement maintenance technology is worthy of application and promotion.

The bitumen decanter equipment is mainly composed of barrel removal shell (BOX), hoisting mechanism, hydraulic booster and electrical control system. The shell is divided into two chambers, the left and right chambers. The upper chamber is a chamber for melting a large barrel of bitumen (definition: the transformation process of a substance from solid to liquid). There are heating coils evenly distributed around it.

From the current point of view, road construction machinery has bottomed out and asphalt meltering equipment has risen rapidly. In recent years, highway construction and maintenance departments have a strong awareness of using asphalt mixing equipment, especially in developed coastal areas such as Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, etc. In addition, these regions have a fast economic growth rate, relatively developed industry, and strong comprehensive economic strength. Therefore, the consumption of asphalt mixing equipments in these regions has always been at the forefront of the country. With the rapid development of highway construction and the increase in demand for asphalt, barreled asphalt has been widely used for its convenient transportation and easy storage. In particular, most of the high-performance imported asphalt used in high-grade highways is in barrel form, which requires an asphalt meltering equipment with fast melting speed, clean de-barreling, and can prevent asphalt aging. my country’s highway construction has achieved remarkable results, among which mechanized production has contributed greatly. Different types of asphalt mixers and bitumen meltering equipment are selected for the characteristics of large highway pavement construction and tight construction period. With the rapid development of my country’s economy, the further extension of expressways, and the large-scale development of western construction, the central and western regions have become new investment hotspots. While paying attention to the market in the developed eastern regions, domestic road construction machinery manufacturers have also increased their efforts to develop the central and western markets, creating new highlights for the domestic asphalt mixing plants consumer market. In summary, my country’s asphalt mixing plant sales market has begun to move westward with the westward movement of investment hotspots. As the market center of gravity gradually shifts westward, the market in the western region is gradually heating up. The self-heating integrated structure, hot air barrel melting and bitumen barrel flipping technology in the asphalt barrel removal equipment are our company’s self-heating integrated structure. The thermal oil furnace used in the old equipment is perfectly integrated with the asphalt barrel removal equipment body, which reduces the volume of the entire set of equipment, greatly reduces equipment investment, saves equipment space and transfer transportation costs.

Asphalt emulsifiers can be divided into synthetic emulsifiers, natural emulsifiers, inorganic powder emulsifiers, etc. according to their formation. Synthetic emulsifiers are currently the most widely used. Asphalt emulsifiers are a type of organically synthesized surfactant that can emulsify asphalt.
Emulsifiers are divided into ionic and non-ionic types according to whether the hydrophilic group of the emulsifier molecule is charged when the emulsifier is dissolved in water. Ionic emulsifiers are divided into cationic and anionic types due to the different charges of the hydrophilic group after ionization in water. In addition, there are zwitterionic types.
Cationic emulsifiers are divided into three types: fast cracking, medium cracking, and slow cracking according to the speed of demulsification. Slow cracking emulsifiers are divided into slow setting and fast setting according to the length of time the mixture solidifies. Slow cracking and slow setting types are mainly used as permeable oils. Slow cracking and fast setting are used for micro-surfacing, slurry sealing, cold regeneration, etc. Medium cracking and fast cracking types are used for adhesive layer oils, gravel sealing layers, and waterproof base oils.

No matter the application of emulsified asphalt equipment or other related equipment, in the application of appropriate maintenance work, today we introduce professional technicians to do the following 3 points to effectively improve the utilization rate of asphalt equipment:
1. When the emulsified asphalt plant is out of use for a long time, the liquid in the pipeline and storage tank should be discharged, the lid should be sealed, kept clean, and all moving parts are lubricated. When it is used for the first time and disabled for a long time, the rust of the oil tank should be removed, and the water filter should be cleaned regularly.
2. When the outdoor temperature is lower than -5℃, the emulsified asphalt production equipment shall not store the product without insulation device, and it should be discharged in time to avoid freezing and demulsification of emulsified asphalt.
3. The gap between the stator and the rotor of the emulsified asphalt equipment should be checked regularly. When the machine cannot meet the smaller gap requirements, the stator and rotor should be replaced.

Some of the equipment of emulsified modified bitumen equipment are as follows. The specially made bitumen filter can effectively filter the residues and dirt in the high-temperature culture medium bitumen to avoid damage to the subsequent equipment. The emulsified modified bitumen equipment adopts a spiral plate type or a shell and tube heat exchanger to quickly heat the culture medium bitumen through high-temperature heat transfer oil to meet the needs of the production process. The emulsified modified bitumen equipment is heated in the storage tank to prevent the bitumen from aging due to long-term high-temperature heating and exposure to the air. The sulfate generated during the production process of the emulsified modified bitumen equipment is very limited, reducing air pollution.
The emulsified modified bitumen equipment sends the modified material manually poured into the dumping bin to the bitumen batching tank by wind or spiral. It can be equipped with a metering and calibration system. The emulsified modified bitumen equipment thickener is automatically or manually added. The emulsified modified bitumen equipment can be equipped with a metering and calibration system. Emulsified modified bitumen equipment transportation and metering and calibration system, the emulsified modified bitumen equipment adds the set bitumen amount to the batching tank through the frequency converter and computer interlock. The emulsified modified bitumen equipment and bitumen steam flowmeter use big brand products to ensure the preparation.

Classification analysis of emulsion bitumen equipment is used to heat-melt bitumen. According to the actual cutting effect of mechanical equipment, it is loosened into a solution with demulsifier in the form of tiny droplets to form oil-in-water asphalt. Industrial equipment for lotions. Emulsion bitumen equipment can be divided into three types: portable, transportable and mobile according to the equipment, layout and maneuverability of the equipment.

Emulsified asphalt equipment hot-melts basic colored asphalt and mechanically distributes tiny colored asphalt particles in an aqueous solution containing emulsifier to form a liquid colored asphalt material. The cement emulsified asphalt equipment mortar used in slab ballastless track construction uses cationic emulsified asphalt equipment. The purpose is to adjust the elasticity, toughness and durability of the cement emulsified asphalt equipment mortar. Polymers are often used to modify the asphalt.

The fine surface is made of stone with a single particle size, which has high wear resistance and anti-slip properties. The construction of the fine surface adopts mechanized construction, which requires less manual labor and has the characteristics of fast construction speed, anti-skid and noise reduction.
The special bonding material for fine surfaces produced by Sinoroader Group has the characteristics of good bonding performance and good durability. The specific construction process is roughly as follows:

The advantages of Sinoroader bitumen decanter equipment over similar domestic equipment are reflected in the following points:
1. The equipment produces 8-10t/hour, with an automatic telescopic sealed container structure. It uses an electric hoist to lift the asphalt barrel at the inlet guide tube. Start to control the hydraulic cart forward button, which will promote the barrel push (push and slide into the barrel). It is a 1300mm hydraulic cylinder with a 7.5-ton top thrust. The device has a beautiful appearance, reasonable layout, compactness, stable performance, and is suitable for production under various industrial and mining conditions.
2. Fast barrel removal: According to the principle of layered heating, it adopts four-layer thermal oil heating technology, a single inlet and outlet, and high thermal efficiency of heating; at the same time, it uses the waste heat of combustion gas for two heatings and efficient use of energy; the barrel body uses high-quality rock wool insulation material.
3. Good environmental protection: closed structure, no pollution.
4. No barrel hanging: The upper part of the asphalt barrel is hot, and each is directly affected by the thermal oil heating pipe. The barrel wall directly receives the heat dissipation of the heating coil, and the barrel is clean and fast, which will not cause waste of asphalt barrel hanging.
5. Strong adaptability: Suitable for imported and domestic barrels, and the deformation of asphalt barrels will not affect production.
6. Good dehydration: Use a large-displacement asphalt pump for internal circulation, stirring, water vapor overflows, and is naturally discharged from the exhaust port. After dehydration, asphalt can be directly used to produce asphalt mixture or used as matrix asphalt.
7. Automatic slag removal: This set of equipment has an automatic slag removal function. The filter device sets the asphalt circulation pipeline through the filter, which can automatically remove the barreled asphalt slag.
8. Safe and reliable: The equipment adopts an automatic control system, an automatic ignition burner import, can automatically control the temperature according to the temperature, and is equipped with corresponding monitoring instruments.
9. Convenient relocation: The whole machine is assembled with large components, which is easy to move and quick to assemble.

The difficulty of emulsified bitumen equipment itself, because general bitumen also has different classifications, in the production and processing of emulsified bitumen equipment bitumen concrete, it is necessary to pay attention to whether the common raw materials are the common bitumen and ensure the quality. Check the black antistatic tweezers of emulsified bitumen equipment asphalt concrete machine equipment emulsified bitumen equipment.
If the gap of the black antistatic medical tweezers bitumen concrete micro-powder machine of emulsified bitumen equipment is enlarged after long-term use, then we can adjust it and continue to process it. Emulsified bitumen equipment is a relatively simple difficulty.

How to reduce the energy consumption of emulsified asphalt production equipment is a concern of many users, and is also an issue that many manufacturers attach great importance to. Therefore, today Sinoroader, as a manufacturer of emulsified asphalt production equipment, would like to take this opportunity to share with you how to reduce the production of emulsified asphalt. Equipment energy consumption method.
Since emulsified asphalt appears as a finished product in emulsified asphalt production equipment, and the outlet temperature of ordinary emulsified asphalt is about 85°C, the outlet temperature of emulsified modified asphalt is above 95°C, so there is a lot of latent heat in emulsified asphalt, but emulsified asphalt The production equipment does not make good use of them, but directly enters the finished product tank, allowing the heat to be lost at will, resulting in a waste of energy.

I believe everyone is familiar with the relevant knowledge about modified bitumen equipment. As users continue to increase its application, we have also talked about it a lot in the above articles and learned that it is mainly engaged in the production of modified bitumen. Production, in order to further enhance users’ understanding of it, professionals summarize its relevant characteristics as follows:

Emulsion bitumen manchine is widely used in new technologies and new processes for preventive maintenance. Emulsion bitumen manchine is an emulsion at room temperature formed by dispersing asphalt into the water phase. It is a new material that is made of natural materials. It is different from traditional Compared with hot asphalt, it saves more than 50% of energy, saves 10%-20% of asphalt, and causes less pollution.

The emulsified bitumen equipment hot-melts the base cold-mix colored bitumen, and then disperses the slightly cold-mixed colored bitumen particles into the aqueous solution containing emulsifier through a machine to form liquid cold-mixed colored bitumen sheets.

We have conducted in-depth research on asphalt distributors and have accumulated a lot of production technology experience. We have conducted professional and in-depth research on some problems existing in the market to provide convenience for everyone in future production applications.
Every time when spraying asphalt, the asphalt distributor does not spray asphalt. Troubleshooting. The asphalt distributor does not spray asphalt. It is a common fault. The following teaches you how to solve the problem of not spraying asphalt.
1. No asphalt spraying
Analysis of the reasons may be the following reasons:
1. Is the asphalt pump working?
2. Are the valves adjusted correctly?
3. Is the pump or pipeline blocked?
2. Troubleshooting method
1. Check whether the hydraulic system is working properly?
2. After adjusting the valve position, the asphalt distributor must be cleaned to avoid pipeline blockage when used next time. Because the asphalt distributor has different high and low configurations, it can spread various high-viscosity and high-temperature modified asphalts and rubber asphalt in high configuration. If you mistakenly use a low-configuration asphalt truck to spread this type of asphalt, you must spray the asphalt inside the entire vehicle clean after the first use. After spraying, in order to leave no residual asphalt, you can use waste diesel to clean it. Our company’s vehicles are equipped with air cleaning and gravity cleaning devices. Diesel cleaning is a reliable cleaning method.

Improve the understanding of the importance of preventive maintenance
We should further improve the understanding of the importance of preventive maintenance and raise preventive maintenance to the level of highway asset protection and road protection. At present, leaders at all levels and maintenance departments do not fully understand the significance of preventive maintenance of asphalt pavement. We should deepen our understanding of the important role of preventive maintenance and improve the strategic awareness, initiative and creativity of preventive maintenance. At the same time, the maintenance department should strengthen communication and exchanges with transportation authorities and financial management departments at all levels, so that departments at all levels understand the importance and necessity of preventive maintenance and create conditions for the implementation of preventive maintenance and funding sources. At the same time, it is very necessary to add preventive maintenance to the classification of maintenance projects, which will help the management of leaders at all levels and the implementation of preventive maintenance.
Improve the decision-making and planning of preventive maintenance
According to the decision-making and planning process, reasonably arrange the preventive maintenance of asphalt concrete pavement structure to ensure the safe and stable operation of highway projects throughout the life cycle, and reduce production costs while providing high-quality traffic services. Therefore, the key to preventive maintenance of asphalt concrete pavement structure lies in establishing a scientific decision-making and planning mechanism. The Ministry of Transport proposed in the “13th Five-Year Plan for Highway Maintenance Management Development” that the average annual mileage of preventive maintenance for expressways should not be less than 8%, and that for ordinary national and provincial roads should not be less than 5%. In the actual application process, local governments should also actively summarize experience and propose different preventive maintenance ratios based on the specific conditions of different regions.

The viscosity of the drum bitumen decanter equipment decreases as the temperature increases during the production process. Its output viscosity is about twice as high as every 12°C increase. During production, the base bitumen decanter equipment must first be heated to a liquid state and then emulsified. In order to better integrate the emulsification ability of colloid milling, the viscosity of base bitumen decanter is generally controlled to be about 200 cst. The lower the temperature, the higher the viscosity, which increases the pressure on the bitumen decanter pump and colloid milling, making emulsification impossible: However, on the other hand, in order to prevent the bitumen decanter equipment from weaning when the moisture of the finished product evaporates, it is impossible to heat the base asphalt barrel removal temperature too high, and generally use a colloid grinding inlet and outlet system. The finished product temperature should be below 85°C.

There are certain standards for the composition and mix ratio of micro-surfacing, and a wide range of materials are used, including polymer-modified emulsified asphalt, various aggregates, cement, water, additives, etc. Raw material quality has a significant impact on microsurfacing performance, so understanding the performance of each component and the key factors that influence its performance is critical to ensuring the quality of your microsurfacing mix.

Asphalt used to pave roads. It can be obtained by regular vacuum distillation of crude oil with appropriate properties, and can also be obtained by shallow oxidation of vacuum residue or propane deasphalting process. It can also be prepared by mixing asphalt of different duction and injection degree

What is the overall operation process of bitumen (composition: asphaltene and resin) drum melting equipment?
The bitumen (composition: asphaltene and resin) drum melting equipment produced by our company mainly uses barrel debarking and melting of large barrels of bitumen (definition: the transformation process of materials from solid to liquid), using high-temperature thermal oil as the material (playing a decision-making role substance), used in supporting facilities of high-temperature thermal oil heating equipment. Bitumen drum melter equipment has the functions of barrel delivery, barrel removal, storage, temperature raising, slag discharge, etc. It is an essential product for high-grade highway construction companies. Bitumen drum melter equipment can be used for resin barrel removal. The bitumen drum melter equipment mainly consists of barrel removal shell, hoisting mechanism, hydraulic booster and electrical control system.

Modified asphalt equipment is a widely used asphalt equipment. Now its ultra-high performance has been widely praised by users. However, we must first ensure the safe use of modified asphalt equipment in order to fully demonstrate its performance. So how much do you know about the safe use and operation of modified asphalt equipment? Today, Gaoyuan Road Construction will explain it in detail:
1. Placement: The modified asphalt equipment should be placed on a flat place, and the front axle wheel should be fixed with sleepers and the tires should be suspended to ensure that the machine does not move around during operation.
2. Check regularly whether the mixer blades are deformed and whether the screws are loose.
3. Check whether the running direction of the mixing barrel is consistent with the arrow. If not, please replace the positive and negative poles of the wiring.
4. Before powering on, check for empty vehicle trial operation, check for leakage, and check the idling of the mixing barrel. The normal speed is about 3 times faster when the empty vehicle is full. If the speed is wrong, you should stop and check.
5. If the machine is stopped for more than one hour after the asphalt mixing is completed, clean the mixing barrel, pour in clean water, and clean the mortar. Then drain the water. Remember that there should be no water accumulation in the barrel to prevent the formula from changing and even rusting of the pages and other links.

The base layer of asphalt pavement is divided into semi-rigid and rigid. Since the base layer and the surface layer are materials of different properties, good bonding and continuity between the two are the key requirements for this type of pavement. In addition, when the asphalt surface layer seeps water, most of the water will be concentrated at the joint between the surface layer and the base layer, causing damage such as slurry, looseness, and potholes to the asphalt pavement. Therefore, adding a lower seal layer on top of a semi-rigid or rigid base layer will play a vital role in enhancing the strength, stability and waterproofing capabilities of the pavement structural layer. The more commonly used one is to use asphalt gravel synchronous sealing technology.
So let’s take a look at how the construction of the asphalt gravel synchronous sealing truck is carried out:

Fog seal is an asphalt pavement maintenance construction method.
When the asphalt pavement has increased water permeability, loss of fine aggregate, cracks, pitting, etc., a fog seal layer can be used for pavement repair. The bonding material of the fog seal layer is fluid, can repair cracks and gaps, and can heal cracks below 0.3. After construction, the oil content of the road surface is increased, the anti-sticking aggregate is loosened, and it can play a waterproof role.
Before construction, the original road surface should be surveyed and analyzed to determine the construction bonding materials and spray volume.
So what precautions should be taken during construction?
