How to control the temperature of the mixture in the asphalt mixing plant?

The drive unit is one of the important components of the asphalt mixing plant, so whether it can be reliably operated must be highly valued to avoid adverse effects on the entire asphalt mixing plant. In order to ensure that the drive unit in the asphalt mixing plant is indeed complete and reliable, the following maintenance measures are essential.
The first thing to pay attention to is the universal rotating part of the drive unit of the asphalt mixing plant. This part has always been a fault-prone part. In order to reduce the occurrence of faults, grease should be added on time, and the wear should be checked frequently, and repaired and replaced in time. Users should also prepare the universal shaft assembly to avoid affecting the working process of the entire asphalt mixer.
Secondly, the cleanliness of the hydraulic oil used in the asphalt mixing plant must be ensured. After all, the working environment of the equipment is relatively harsh, so it is necessary to prevent sewage and mud from entering the hydraulic system. The hydraulic oil should also be replaced regularly according to the requirements of the manual. Once water or mud is found mixed in the hydraulic oil during inspection, the hydraulic system should be stopped immediately to clean the hydraulic system and replace the hydraulic oil.
Since there is a hydraulic system, of course, a matching cooling device is also required, which is also an important focus in the drive system of the asphalt mixing plant. To ensure that its function can be fully exerted, on the one hand, the hydraulic oil radiator should be cleaned regularly to prevent the radiator from being blocked by cement; on the other hand, the radiator electric fan should be checked to see if it is running normally to prevent the hydraulic oil temperature from exceeding the standard.
In general, as long as the hydraulic oil of the asphalt mixing plant drive device is kept clean, there are generally few faults; but the service life varies from manufacturer to manufacturer, so pay attention to its alkalinity observation and replace it in real time.

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.

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:

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.

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:

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 (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.

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.

Asphalt mixing plant is a complete set of equipment composed of many systems. It is widely used in the current society. Its components include batching system, drying system, combustion system, hot material lifting, weighing and mixing system and control system.
In the process of asphalt mixing, heating is an indispensable link, because there must be a system for heating in the asphalt mixing station, but the system generally fails for various reasons. So how should the heating system of the asphalt mixing station be improved? This article will briefly explain this issue.
Generally speaking, when the asphalt mixing station is running under low temperature conditions, the asphalt circulation pump and spray pump cannot operate normally, which will cause the asphalt in the asphalt scale to solidify, and then the asphalt mixing station cannot be produced. Therefore, the asphalt mixing station needs a heating system during operation.

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.

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.

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.

Certain failures cannot be avoided during the use of the asphalt mixing plant. For example, a malfunction of the cold material feeding device may cause the asphalt mixing plant to shut down. This may be due to a malfunction in the asphalt mixing plant or due to gravel or foreign matter being trapped under the cold material belt.

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.

[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.

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.

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 actual operation steps of drying drum of asphalt mixing equipment: 1. Pay attention to routine inspection; 2. Proper operation steps; 3. Effective maintenance.
Drying drum is a cylindrical device specially used for heating and drying stones in asphalt mixing equipment. Proper application and maintenance of drying drum can maximize the performance of drying drum, increase its service life and reduce application cost. Let’s take a look at the actual operation steps below.
1. Pay attention to routine inspections
The asphalt mixing equipment drying drum has been tested and inspected before leaving the factory, but it will be subjected to vibration and vibration during transportation to the construction site. A comprehensive inspection should be carried out before use: check whether all anchor bolts are tightened; whether all key pins are properly driven; whether all drive devices are adjusted according to the manufacturer’s instructions; whether all pipe connections are appropriate and whether the three-way joints are reliable; whether the entire equipment is fully lubricated; start the motor and check whether all parts can rotate steadily in the correct rotation direction; whether the pressure gauge can work normally and whether the valve is adjusted to the correct working pressure; whether the burner ignition mechanism is available and whether the gate valve is open.
2. Correct operation steps
After the equipment is started, it is recommended to control the machine manually at the beginning, and then switch to the automatic control mode after achieving the required production volume and pouring temperature. The stone should be dried and have a stable moisture content as much as possible so that the stone can maintain a stable final temperature when passing through the drying drum. If the stones delivered to the drying drum change frequently and the moisture content changes each time, the burner should be adjusted frequently to compensate for these changes.
The stones directly from the crushed stone have a relatively constant moisture content, while the stones from the outdoor storage yard have a higher moisture content, and the moisture content of different piles varies greatly. Therefore, it is best for the stones to come from the same source.

The quality of the asphalt mixing plant will be a key factor affecting the quality of the project. After reviewing relevant materials related to the production and construction of asphalt concrete, we summarized some cases of failures in asphalt concrete mixing stations during construction and analyzed the reasons.
1. Unstable output and low production efficiency of asphalt mixing plants
(1) Improper proportioning. The mix ratio of asphalt concrete is divided into target mix ratio and production mix ratio. Among them, the target mix ratio controls the cold material transportation ratio of sand and gravel materials, and the production mix ratio is the mixing ratio of various types of sand and stone materials in the finished asphalt concrete materials specified in the design. The production mix ratio is determined by the laboratory, which directly determines the off-site grading standard of the finished asphalt concrete. The target mix ratio is set to further ensure the production mix ratio, and can be adjusted appropriately during production according to the actual situation. When the target mix ratio or the production mix ratio is not appropriate, the stones stored in each measurement of the asphalt mixing station will be disproportionate, with some overflowing and some other materials, unable to be weighed in time, and the mixing cylinder will be idling, resulting in reduced output.

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.

In fact, asphalt mixing stations are not uncommon in our daily lives. They are mainly a unit of equipment specially designed to mix asphalt. What we really don’t understand is the gas system of the asphalt mixing station. Only correct maintenance And operation can bring out the best production effect. So what are the faults in the gas circuit of asphalt mixing station?
The following three points are the more common gas path failures of asphalt mixing stations:

Asphalt mixing stations and equipment must implement secondary leakage protection measures. They can only be used after being plugged in and operated through the circuit breaker before use. During the trial operation, it is necessary to verify that the rotational speed of the mixing drum will be inappropriate.

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?

Colored asphalt pavement is a kind of special pavement material that mixes colored particles into asphalt and then lays on the pavement

The HMA-B series forced asphalt mixing plant can produce reliable quality asphalt in various proportions. The product technology is mature, the operation is stable, the specifications are complete, the efficiency is high, the output is large, and the finished asphalt quality is good. It is suitable for various sizes and This type of road construction project has more obvious advantages in larger-scale road construction projects and high-grade highway construction projects.
