asphalt mixture mixing equipment

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 also called asphalt mixture mixing equipment, which is mainly used to produce asphalt mixtures of various specifications. It is an important equipment in projects such as road construction, highway maintenance and airport runway construction. The main components of an asphalt mixing plant include cold material supply system, drying drum, screening system, weighing system, agitator, finished product silo and control system.
The workflow of an asphalt mixing plant is generally as follows:

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.

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.
