The mixing speed of asphalt mixing plants 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 for measuring 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.
It should be noted that the torque of the mixing shaft of the asphalt mixing equipment is proportional to its shear strain, so as long as the shear strain on the outer surface of the mixing shaft is measured, the torque can be calculated. This method is suitable for measuring mixing systems with larger power.
When measuring specifically, it is necessary to first symmetrically paste 4 pieces of resistance wire strain gauges on the stirring shaft at a 45° angle to the axis and make them form an electric bridge. When the stirring shaft of the asphalt mixing equipment undergoes shear deformation under the action of torque, the length and cross-section of the resistance wire on the strain gauge also change accordingly.
This change will cause the resistance value of the resistance wire to change, destroying the balance of the bridge while generating a voltage signal that is linearly related to the shear strain. This voltage signal is amplified by the dynamic resistance strain gauge and input into the recorder, and the shear strain change data can be read.
According to the conversion relationship between torque and shear strain, the torque value of the stirring shaft can be easily obtained after data processing, and then the friction torque of the seal, bearing, etc. measured by the no-load test is deducted, which is the actual torque consumed by the asphalt mixing equipment during the mixing process.

    Emulsified asphalt equipment plays an important role in road construction, and its production quality will directly affect the quality of facilities such as roads. In order to operate it better, we need to pay special attention to the following four points when applying emulsified asphalt equipment:
    1. Before spraying, the emulsified asphalt equipment must check whether the position of each valve is correct. The hot asphalt added to the emulsified asphalt equipment must reach an operating temperature of 160~180℃. For long-distance transportation or long working time, a heating device can be used for insulation, but it cannot be used as an oil melting furnace.
    2. When the asphalt in the emulsified asphalt equipment is heated by a burner, the asphalt height must exceed the upper plane of the combustion chamber, otherwise the combustion chamber will be burned.
    3. The emulsified asphalt equipment cannot be filled too full, and the fuel filler cap must be closed tightly to prevent asphalt from overflowing during transportation.
    4. This vehicle has two front and rear control consoles. When using the front control console, the switch must be turned to the front control. At this time, the rear control console can only control the lifting and lowering of the nozzle.
    I believe that through the above description, everyone will be more comfortable when using emulsified asphalt equipment in the future. As for the relevant operating matters of the equipment, I will introduce them to you here today. If you want to know more information, please pay attention to the next explanation.

    For road construction machinery, the following is mainly about the asphalt mixer in road construction machinery equipment. Because it is the key product of Wuxi road construction machinery manufacturers, it is necessary to carry out comprehensive training and mastery, so as to ensure meticulousness and practicality, and not ignore any knowledge points.
    1. In road construction machinery, is there any difference between asphalt mixing equipment and asphalt concrete mixing equipment?
    The answer given by Sinoroader Group manufacturer to this question is no, that is, there is no difference between asphalt mixing equipment and asphalt concrete mixing equipment. They refer to the same type of equipment, but they are different in name. It can be said that they are two names for the same type of equipment, and there is no difference in essence.
    2. During the operation of the asphalt mixer, there is a sound in the mixing pot. What’s the matter?
    In the view of Sinoroader Group, there are two answers to this question. One is that the mixer arm on the asphalt mixer is not good or damaged. The second is that the wear-resistant lining in the mixer is damaged, which leads to this problem.
    3. What are the dust removal devices in the asphalt mixing equipment?
    In the asphalt mixing equipment, for its dust removal device, Sinoroader Group believes that the key is to use the dry ash removal method, because it can facilitate the collection of raw materials. In terms of its dust removal equipment type, there are filter dust removal equipment, centrifugal fan dust removal equipment and force dust removal equipment, etc., which can all be used well.
    For the asphalt mixer and asphalt mixing equipment in road construction machinery, I believe that through the practical discussion of the above relevant content, everyone can master it well and master it, so that in practice, they can have new gains and benefit a lot from it.

    Asphalt mixing stations, also known as asphalt concrete mixing stations, can produce asphalt mixtures, modified asphalt mixtures, and colored asphalt mixtures, which fully meet the needs of building highways, grade roads, municipal roads, airports, ports, etc. Changmeng Electric Power introduces the safety operating procedures of asphalt mixing plants below:
    1. During the operation of the mixing equipment, in addition to ensuring that the 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 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 determining fuel consumption. Additional material sheds should be added.
    3. Before operation, all working parts and devices of the mixing equipment should be fully checked to see if they are intact and normal. If there are any problems, they must be properly handled before operation, and it is forbidden to operate with illness.
    4. The operation must be carried out strictly in accordance with the procedures and precautions specified in the instruction manual. After normal ignition, the dust collector should be monitored to ensure that the drying drum burns under negative pressure; after production starts, the hot material elevator and agitator should be monitored to see if they are working normally to coordinate the operation of other parts.
