Questions and answers about road construction machinery asphalt mixing plants

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.

Due to its complexity and importance, asphalt mixing plants are more critical in road construction. Modern asphalt mixing stations have five key systems. Do you know what they are?
1. Mixing system of asphalt mixing plant
Mixing equipment is one of the key systems, why? Usually, the productivity of the mixing equipment has a great impact on the next step of construction efficiency. Most asphalt mixing plants use twin-shaft forced mixing. Since the drying drum and burner of the mixing equipment have strong overload capabilities, and in most cases, the moisture content of the mineral materials is less than 5%, this improves the productivity of the mixing equipment. provide conditions. The mixing blades of the mixer have an adjustable assembly angle and are driven by dual mixing shafts and dual motors.

Road construction machinery is a large range, so let’s talk about one of it, which is the asphalt mixing plant. It is mainly used to produce asphalt, so it is very important among road construction machinery and equipment. An important part, if the quality of the finished product is not good, it will greatly affect the quality of the road. Therefore, below, the editor will use the form of question and answer to guide you to continue learning.

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 mixing station 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.

When inspecting the asphalt mixing plant, it was found that the asphalt in the pipeline solidified because the temperature of the asphalt transportation pipeline did not meet the requirements. Analysis believes that the reasons for this result are that the high-level oil tank of the heat transfer oil is too low, resulting in poor circulation of the heat transfer oil; the second is that the inner tube of the double-layer pipe is eccentric; the third is that the heat transfer oil pipeline is too long; and the fourth is that the heat transfer oil pipeline is not insulated measure.

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.

As a special equipment, standardizing the operating procedures of important production tools of asphalt mixing stations, conducting daily maintenance, regular inspections, eliminating hidden dangers, etc. can effectively ensure the safety and stability of the equipment and prevent equipment from malfunctioning due to misoperation. causing equipment damage. Good maintenance operations can also greatly extend the service life of asphalt mixing plants. Therefore, before daily operation, the asphalt mixing plant must be properly maintained to make the asphalt mixing plant operate better and create wealth.

The asphalt mixing plant contains multiple different systems with different functions. The drying system is one of them. Its main function is to heat and dry the materials to reach the temperature required for the process. In order to successfully achieve this goal, the drying system must provide a certain amount of heat.

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.

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.

In order to keep the asphalt mixing plant in a stable operating process, a series of adverse factors related to it must be excluded. What should be paid attention to in this process?
First of all, the selection of the delivery pump in the asphalt mixing plant must meet the requirements of asphalt pouring per unit time during construction, height, and horizontal distance requirements. At the same time, there must be a certain technical and production capacity reserve, and the balanced production capacity is preferably 1.2 to 1.5 times.
Secondly, the movement and hydraulic systems of the asphalt mixing plant must be normal, and there must be no abnormal sound and vibration to avoid large aggregates and lumps inside the equipment, otherwise it is easy to get stuck at the feed inlet of the mixing plant or be blocked due to arching. Another point is that when the asphalt mixing plant is in the same site, it is not suitable to use too many pumps and pumps from multiple manufacturers to avoid affecting its normal operation.

Asphalt mixing plant, also known as asphalt concrete mixing plant, is a complete set of equipment for batch production of asphalt concrete. Its efficient and stable operation is of great significance to ensure the quality of the project. It is mainly used in the construction of highways, grade roads, municipal roads, airports, ports and other projects. According to the mixing method, asphalt mixing plant can be divided into forced intermittent type and continuous production type; according to the transportation method, it can be divided into fixed type, semi-fixed type and mobile type.
The working principle of asphalt mixing plant mainly includes steps such as aggregate processing, asphalt processing and mixture mixing. Specifically, aggregates (such as gravel, crushed stone, etc.) are sent to aggregate bins through conveyors or bucket elevators, and then measured by aggregate metering devices, and a certain amount of aggregates are sent to sub-bins. Asphalt is stored in asphalt bins or oil storage tanks, and is measured by asphalt metering devices, and a certain amount of asphalt is sent to asphalt sub-bins. Finally, according to the ratio requirements, different aggregates are taken out from their respective sub-bins and sent to the mixture mixer through conveyors or bucket elevators for mixing.

Asphalt mixing plants bring a lot of convenience. You should understand what asphalt is. Asphalt is a very viscous liquid with a black surface that dissolves carbon disulfide. They generally exist as asphalt and smoke tar. Asphalt appeared early in social life.

Asphalt mixing stations play an important role in road construction. This article starts from the site selection, commissioning, and acceptance of the asphalt mixing plant, and elaborates on comprehensive and reasonable planning to avoid disturbing the normal construction order.

Speaking of asphalt mixing plants, we are not unfamiliar with them. This is a unit equipment specially used for asphalt mixing. In fact, what we really lack understanding of is its gas system. Even the accumulated failures that often occur in the gas system of asphalt mixing plants are not very clear. Facts have proved that only by properly maintaining the various systems of the equipment can efficient production and good benefits be achieved.
The following are four types of gas system failures that often occur in asphalt mixing plants. Let’s analyze the causes of the problems behind the failures one by one.

What should I do when the reversing valve in the asphalt mixing plant fails? The editor has a trick:
1. The reversing valve cannot be reversed or the reversing action is slow, which is generally caused by poor lubrication, stuck or damaged springs, oil or impurities stuck in the sliding parts. In this regard, you should first check whether the oil mist is working normally; whether the viscosity of the lubricating oil is appropriate. If necessary, the lubricating oil should be replaced, the sliding part of the reversing valve should be cleaned, or the spring and reversing valve should be replaced.

Construction safety has always been a major issue, and we cannot let any safety hazard go unnoticed. Especially the use of equipment at the construction site. Asphalt mixing stations are prone to failure. Strengthening the maintenance of this equipment is essential to ensure safe construction at the construction site, improve equipment integrity, reduce equipment failures, and ensure the quality of concrete. The role of neglect.
The composition of the asphalt mixing plant is relatively complex, so during maintenance, classified maintenance should be carried out according to the usage and functions of different parts. Maintenance content can be divided into tank maintenance, winch system maintenance and adjustment, stroke limiter adjustment and maintenance, wire rope and pulley maintenance, lifting hopper maintenance, track and track bracket maintenance, etc.

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.

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.

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.

1: The site should be located on higher ground and away from residential areas and densely populated areas.
2: The venue should consider the transportation distance and choose a location with convenient transportation.
3: Determine the website construction plan according to the terrain

With the changes in society and the transformation of the economy, real estate and construction are developing rapidly. When building and constructing houses, most of them use some equipment, such as mixing plants. The asphalt mixing plants produced by our company have a high level of mechanization and high production efficiency.
What is an asphalt mixing plant? It is a combined device used for centralized mixing of concrete, also known as a concrete prefabrication site.
With the development of municipal construction, the use of centralized mixing and the provision of commercial mixing plants have great advantages, so it has developed rapidly and created conditions for promoting concrete pumping construction and realizing the joint operation of mixing, conveying and pouring machinery. It is mainly composed of five major systems, including a mixing host, a material weighing system, a material conveying system, a material storage system and a control system, as well as other ancillary facilities. However, there are some faults in normal times. What are the specific ones in the gas source failure?

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.

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?

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

1: The site should be located on higher ground and away from residential areas and densely populated areas.
Because part of the equipment of the mixing station is installed below the ground, in order to avoid continuous rainfall. The equipment will suffer disaster, and the changing aggregate moisture content will affect the concrete quality. Quality accidents are prone to occur. Therefore, during site construction, attention should be paid to the construction of drainage pipelines and sand and gravel quarries. With the rapid development of cities. With the continuous expansion of urban scale, environmental protection requirements will become more and more stringent. Urban roads prohibit gravel vehicles from passing, so concrete mixing plants should be built far away from urban areas.

Asphalt flue gas treatment methods, their principles and characteristics, and an asphalt flue gas environmental protection treatment plan based on the actual asphalt flue gas problems faced by the unit.

1. Basic situation
My unit’s mixing plant is equipped with a 4000-type asphalt mixing plant. During daily production of the asphalt mixing plant, a large amount of asphalt smoke will be emitted from the mixing pot discharge port. This smoke not only has an unpleasant smell, but also contains A large number of compounds that are harmful to the human body, such as benzopyrene, benzanthracene, carbazole and other polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, mostly have carcinogenic risks. Smoke overflow will cause pollution to the surrounding atmospheric environment and affect the personal health of workers. Although the overflow port of the mixing station is equipped with a dust retaining wall, the fine dust is seriously raised, and the cold material belt conveyor is dusty. In order to protect the environment, reduce pollution, and reduce cost investment, based on full research and absorption of technology in the same industry, and combined with the actual situation of asphalt mixing, we are planning to install asphalt mixing bag dust collectors to the flue at the discharge port of the mixing pot to control asphalt fumes. Gas is processed. The dust removal efficiency of the bag dust collector can reach 97%~99%, and the dust-containing gas can be purified to a level of 50mg/Nm3.

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:
