The combination of time-reliable hydraulic transmission components and Meitong’s control system can make the equipment instantly start from zero. Spraying starts in line, stable and reliable.
2. Duplex sealing structure
The sealing process of this equipment is a three-layer simultaneous and continuous construction process of one layer of asphalt + one layer of fiber + one layer of asphalt, forming a layer of interactive dense network winding structure, which fully meets the user’s construction requirements.

The heating principle of asphalt decanter equipment is to heat, melt and decanter the asphalt through the heating plate. It is mainly composed of de-barreling box, lifting system, propeller and electrical control system.
The box of asphalt decanter plant is divided into upper and lower chambers. The upper chamber is the asphalt melting chamber, which is densely covered with heat transfer oil heating coils or hot air heating pipes. The asphalt is melted and removed from the barrel by heat. The hoisting hook is installed on the gantry, and a barrel grabber is hung. The asphalt barrel is lifted by the electric winch, and then the asphalt barrel is placed on the guide rail by horizontal movement. Then the propeller pushes the barrel into the upper chamber through two guide rails, and an empty barrel is pushed out at the rear end outlet.
An anti-drip oil tank is provided at the entrance of the asphalt barrel. The asphalt enters the lower chamber of the box and is continuously heated to a temperature of about 100 to be transported, and then pumped into the asphalt tank by the asphalt pump. The lower chamber can also be used as an asphalt heating tank.
The asphalt decanter plant has the characteristics of not being restricted by the construction environment, strong adaptability and extremely low failure rate. If large production is required, multiple units can be assembled.

1 Common diseases of asphalt pavement
There are nine phenomena of early damage to asphalt pavement: rutting, cracks, and potholes. These diseases are the most common and serious, and are one of the common quality problems of highway projects.
1.1 Rutting
Rutting refers to the longitudinal strip grooves on the road surface along the wheel tracks, with a depth of more than 1.5cm. Rutting is a strip groove formed by the accumulation of permanent deformation of the road surface under the repeated action of vehicle load. Rutting reduces the smoothness of the road surface. When the rutting reaches a certain depth, due to the accumulation of water in the rutting, it is easy for cars to slide and cause traffic accidents. The main reasons for rutting are unreasonable design and serious overloading of vehicles.
1.2 Cracks
There are three main forms of cracks: longitudinal cracks, transverse cracks and mesh cracks. When cracks occur in asphalt pavement, water seepage occurs, which harms the surface layer and base layer.
1.3 Potholes
Potholes are common early diseases of asphalt pavement, which refer to the road surface being damaged into potholes with a depth of more than 2cm and an area of ??more than 0.04㎡. The main reason for the formation of potholes is that the oil used in vehicle repair or motor vehicles seeps into the road surface, polluting the asphalt mixture and causing it to loosen. The pits are gradually formed by driving and rolling.

When performing bitumen melting, specialized equipment is required. These equipment usually include bitumen melting furnaces, asphalt mixers, asphalt conveying equipment, etc. Among them, the bitumen melting furnace is one of the most advanced equipments, which can heat solid bitumen to liquid state. In addition, asphalt mixers can mix liquid asphalt with stone to make asphalt concrete. , Asphalt conveying equipment can transport asphalt concrete to the construction site. The selection and use of these equipment are of great significance to ensure the quality of bitumen melting and construction efficiency.

Asphalt emulsifier is an emulsifier that belongs to the category of surfactants and is a raw material for the production of emulsified asphalt.
Emulsifiers are divided into: synthetic emulsifiers, natural emulsifiers, inorganic powder emulsifiers, etc. Currently, synthetic emulsifiers are widely used. Asphalt emulsifier is a type of chemical organically synthesized surfactant.

With the development of science and technology, the emergence of emulsified asphalt tanks has brought great convenience to our work, and is widely used in every site. So what issues need to be paid attention to when filling emulsified asphalt tanks? Below, the editor will introduce to you the relevant knowledge structure diagram, hoping to be of some help to you.

Bitumen decanter equipment can be placed in a complex system as an independent unit, replacing the existing heat source de-barreling method, or in parallel as a core component of a large set of equipment, or it can work independently to meet the requirements of small-scale construction operations.
The Sinoroader bitumen decanter device is mainly composed of a de-barreling box, a lifting mechanism, a hydraulic thruster and an electrical control system. The box is divided into two chambers, the upper chamber is a barreled bitumen melting chamber, and heating coils are evenly distributed around it. The heating pipe and the bitumen barrel mainly exchange heat in a radiation manner to achieve the purpose of bitumen de-barreling. Several guide rails are the tracks for the bitumen barrel to enter. The lower chamber is mainly to continue heating the bitumen removed from the barrel to make the temperature reach the suction pump temperature (100℃), and then the asphalt pump is pumped into the upper chamber. At the same time, an empty barrel is pushed out at the rear end outlet. There is also an oil tank on the platform at the entrance of the asphalt barrel to prevent the dripping bitumen from flowing out.
The inlet and outlet doors of the device adopt a spring automatic closing mechanism. The door can be automatically closed after the asphalt barrel is pushed in or out to reduce heat loss. A temperature gauge is installed at the asphalt outlet to observe the asphalt outlet temperature. The electrical control system can control the opening and closing of the hydraulic pump and the reversing of the electromagnetic reversing valve to realize the advance and retreat of the hydraulic cylinder. If the heating time is extended, a higher temperature can be obtained. The lifting mechanism adopts a cantilever structure. The bitumen barrel is lifted by an electric hoist, and then moved horizontally to place the bitumen barrel on the guide rail. A temperature gauge is installed at the outlet of the asphalt meltering equipment to observe its outlet temperature.

Emulsified asphalt equipment is a special equipment for producing emulsified asphalt. The emulsified asphalt produced by emulsified asphalt equipment is used in many industries. I wonder how much you know about the emulsified asphalt produced by emulsified asphalt equipment. Let’s take a look at them one by one:
Slurry seal is a cold mix asphalt mixture with the advantages of aggregate and asphalt mixing. Under normal circumstances, similar graded slurry seal has a higher modulus than hot mix asphalt mixture, so it is often used to fill road rutting. The higher stability has a higher resistance to deformation. The mixture is usually composed of harder fine aggregate grading and wear-resistant aggregate with high sand equivalent, especially micro-seal and polymer-modified seal. This greatly increases the strength and integrity of the road surface. This makes the road surface have high wear resistance and excellent deformation resistance. Emulsified asphalt emulsion is also easy to use on a mobile slurry seal paver, where mixing and admixtures are used for chemical control to meet maintenance needs.

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.

per month (or every 200 hours worked)；
​Per year (or every 500 hours worked)；
Every two years (or every 1,000 hours worked)；

In our daily life, we can often see emulsified asphalt equipment. Its appearance has brought us great convenience. So what is the difference between its modification process? Below, the editor will give you a brief introduction to the relevant knowledge points.
1. Emulsified asphalt equipment first emulsifies and then modifies: This is a relatively simple way to make modified emulsified asphalt. The production process is to grind hot asphalt and emulsifier soap together through a colloid mill to make ordinary emulsified asphalt, and then add latex-like modifiers to the emulsified asphalt through mechanical stirring to make modified emulsified asphalt. The characteristic of this method is that it does not require high equipment.

Each F1 track must be paved with three layers of asphalt, middle and lower, of which the lowest layer is 10 cm coarse asphalt concrete bearing layer, its flatness is less than 8 mm; In the middle is a 4 cm medium grained asphalt concrete bond layer, its flatness is less than 5 mm; The top layer uses 4 cm modified asphalt mixture as the surface wear layer, and the flatness is less than 2 mm.

The paved F1 track cannot have more than 3 points per kilometer of flatness detection, which is much higher than the highway.

Asphalt mixture mixing equipment is a factory-style complete set of equipment that mixes dry and heated aggregates of different particle sizes, fillers and asphalt according to the designed mix ratio at a specified temperature into a uniform mixture. It is widely used in high-grade highways and urban roads. , airports, docks, parking lots and other engineering construction. It is a key equipment for asphalt pavement construction, and its performance directly affects the quality of asphalt pavement.
Generally, there are two types of asphalt concrete mixing equipment: intermittent type and continuous type. The continuous process flow is simple and the equipment is simplified. As for the intermittent forced mixing equipment, due to the secondary screening of aggregates, various components are measured in batches, and forced stirring and mixing can reliably ensure gradation, and the measurement of powder and asphalt can also achieve very high accuracy; so the mixing equipment The asphalt mixture produced is of high quality and can meet various construction requirements.

Fillers used in emulsion bitumen equipment are generally divided into two types: chemically active and non-chemically active. In the production of emulsion bitumen equipment, it can improve the stability of the slurry mixture, speed up or slow down the demulsification speed, and improve the strength of the sealing layer. When adding chemically active fillers, the reaction and compatibility of the fillers with mineral materials and modified emulsion bitumen should be fully considered.

The hydraulic bitumen decanter equipment produced by our company uses thermal oil as the heat carrier and has its own burner for heating. The thermal oil heats, melts, debarks and dehydrates the asphalt through the heating coil. This device can ensure that the asphalt does not age, and has the advantages of high thermal efficiency, fast barrel loading/unloading speed, improved labor intensity, and reduced environmental pollution.

Asphalt mixture is a kind of composite material, mainly composed of asphalt, coarse aggregate, fine aggregate, mineral powder, some also added polymer and wood cellulose; By these different quality and quantity of materials mixed to form different structures, and have different mechanical properties

The slurry seal truck is one of the main maintenance methods of highways. The slurry seal is made of emulsified asphalt as the binding material, well-graded mineral materials, fillers, water and additives, etc., mixed in a certain proportion. The slurry mixture is evenly spread on the old road surface to be treated with a sealing truck, and is firmly combined with the original road surface to form a new thin layer of asphalt mixture. So what preparations need to be done before construction? Let’s find out below.

Asphalt sealant is a material specially used for road crack repair. The following is a detailed introduction to asphalt sealant:
1. Definition and composition
Asphalt sealant is a road repair material made of asphalt or modified asphalt as the base material, with a certain amount of additives and fillers added, and processed by special technology. It usually has a black or dark brown appearance and is in a solid or semi-solid form.
2. Main characteristics
High adhesion: Asphalt sealant can firmly bond to the crack wall of the road surface to form a tight sealing layer to prevent moisture and other harmful substances from invading the road surface structure.
High elasticity: It has a certain elastic recovery ability and can adapt to the expansion and contraction changes of the road surface to prevent further expansion of cracks.
Weather resistance: After special process treatment, it has good weather resistance and can maintain its stable performance for a long time.
Convenient construction: The construction operation is simple and fast, without complex construction machinery, which reduces the construction cost.
3. Scope of application
Asphalt sealant is widely used in crack repair of various asphalt pavements, including highways, urban roads, airport runways, etc. At the same time, it can also be used for the maintenance and repair of asphalt surfaces such as bridges, tunnels, and parking lots.

Microsurfacing is a thin layer of overlay placed on old asphalt pavement and is a type of preventive maintenance process. The purpose of microsurfacing is road maintenance. After micro-surface paving, it can repair cracks in the original road surface, waterproof and beautify the road surface.
The construction method of micro surfacing is: using a micro surfacing paver to evenly spread modified emulsified asphalt, a certain grade of mineral materials, water and other additives on the road surface in a certain proportion.

Preparation items for micro-surfacing slurry sealing: materials, construction machinery (micro-surfacing paver) and other auxiliary equipment.
The micro-surface slurry seal requires emulsified asphalt and stone that meet the standards. The metering system of the micro-surfacing paver needs to be calibrated before construction. The production of emulsified asphalt requires asphalt heating tanks, emulsified asphalt production equipment (capable of producing asphalt content greater than or equal to 60%), and emulsified asphalt finished product tanks. In terms of stone, mineral screening machines, loaders, forklifts, etc. are needed to screen out oversized stones.
The tests required include emulsification test, screening test, mixing test and the equipment and technical personnel required to do these tests.

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.

Synchronized gravel sealing is a process technology for treating cracks in asphalt pavement, and it is currently a road construction and pavement maintenance technology with low energy consumption and high cost performance. Do you know what its six technical features are? If you don’t know, just follow the editor of Sinoroader and take a look.

There are many types of emulsified asphalt (composition: asphaltene and resin) equipment. Emulsified asphalt (composition: asphaltene and resin) equipment can be divided into intermittent operation type, semi-continuous operation type, and Continuing the three operating types, what is the knowledge about different types of emulsified asphalt equipment?

Regarding the basic knowledge of modified bitumen plant, I believe that many consumers have already had a basic understanding of it. Because of the continuous development of various fields today, various facilities including modified bitumen plants have been well developed and applied, and modified bitumen plant has gradually been recognized by customers.
The direct quick heating portable equipment in the modified bitumen equipment not only has a faster heating speed, saves fuel, and is pollution-free, but also convenient and easy to operate. The automatic heating system completely eliminates the trouble of baking or cleaning bitumen and pipelines.

Recently, I found that many people don’t know much about the operation skills of asphalt pavement spreaders. If you also want to know what’s going on, you can read this introduction below.
Asphalt pavement spreaders are an indispensable and important equipment in road maintenance and construction. Their operation skills directly affect construction efficiency and project quality. The following introduces the operation skills of asphalt pavement spreaders from four aspects: pre-operation preparation, precautions during construction, spreading skills, and post-operation cleaning and maintenance:

Before use, please check whether the position of each valve is accurate and make preparations before work. After starting the motor of the asphalt spreading truck, check the four thermal oil valves and air pressure gauge. After everything is normal, start the engine and the power take-off starts to work. Try running the asphalt pump and cycle for 5 minutes. If the pump head shell is hot to your hands, slowly close the thermal oil pump valve. If the heating is insufficient, the pump will not rotate or make noise. You need to open the valve and continue to heat the asphalt pump until it can operate normally.

There is a wide variety of asphalt melting equipment on the market, including different brands and models. The prices of these devices vary widely, depending mainly on factors such as their features, performance, and specifications.
Asphalt melter equipment produced by some large brands such as Sinoroader usually has higher quality and reliability, so the price is relatively higher. However, they also offer longer service life and better maintenance support.

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.
