The main uses of asphalt mixing plants

The drying and heating system of the asphalt mixing plant can be regarded as an important part of the whole, so in actual work, it treats the material in a countercurrent heating manner, thereby achieving full dehydration of the cold aggregate, and heating it to a certain temperature, thereby providing the necessary conditions for the normal and continuous operation of the asphalt mixing plant.
During the entire heating process of the asphalt mixing plant, the main purpose is to make the performance of the mixture more in line with the requirements of use, and to make the finished material have good paving performance. Under normal circumstances, the heating temperature of the aggregate is about 160℃-180℃.

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:

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?

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.

There is also a reversing valve in the asphalt mixer, which generally does not cause problems, so I have not understood its solution in detail before. But in actual use, we encountered this kind of failure. How should we deal with it?

Asphalt mixing plants are large-scale products with high professional and technical requirements, and are composed of multiple systems. Among them, asphalt tanks are also a very critical part. Whether it is manufacturing, debugging or installation, it needs to be operated according to the actual application needs of users.
In addition to the manufacturing, debugging and installation, which need to be operated by installers, the maintenance of asphalt tanks in asphalt mixing plants must also be managed by professionals. At the same time, they must strictly follow all safety rules to operate. Before operation, they must be proficient in the relevant requirements and based on the regulations and safety instructions for storing and handling hot asphalt.

Asphalt is commonly used in our modern urban life, especially in the process of urban highway construction. As an important road surface paving material, the demand for its use is relatively high. Only by using better relevant material performance characteristics can the overall effect be well helped.
Asphalt mixing plants are equipment products that need to be involved in the production and use of such products. With its own excellent performance, it has been better expanded in the promotion of the existing market use scope. The coordination of external use factors is also a key part, and the relationship between various factors must be handled well.

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.

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.

At present, the production efficiency of asphalt mixing plants in my country’s asphalt construction is far lower than the theoretical efficiency at the time of design. The low efficiency of organic waste gas treatment will not only delay the construction process and cause a waste of resources, but also the quality of the construction will not be very good. guarantee. In the construction of asphalt pavement, the main reasons for the low production efficiency of the asphalt plant are insufficient supply of mixture, resulting in loss of continuity of construction, improper equipment parameter settings, excessive overflow and other problems. Effective measures must be taken to deal with these problems, and ultimately improve production efficiency and ensure construction quality.

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:

When we operate the asphalt mixing station, we should heat the equipment half an hour in advance, and the clear tank should be heated for at least two hours; and manually operate each part of the equipment to ensure that it is in good operation. status; it is also necessary to conduct relevant inspections on the valves and manually collect and return oil to ensure that the equipment can operate normally.
Several requirements for safe operation of asphalt mixing plants:

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

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.

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.

The asphalt mixing plant is constructed according to a certain process, which can not only ensure the construction quality, but also ensure that the asphalt mixing plant is not damaged. Although the construction details are critical, the key skills of the asphalt mixing plant construction must be mastered.
Before the construction of the asphalt mixing plant, the top surface of the asphalt mixing plant construction range should be removed, and the dry and flat site elevation should be kept to meet the design requirements. If the ground surface is too soft, the foundation should be reinforced to prevent the construction machinery from becoming unstable and to ensure that the pile frame is vertical.

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.

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.

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.

Determining the material is a necessary stage in the design process of asphalt mixing equipment, and it is also one of the most critical links, because the material will be directly related to the use effect and service life of the entire equipment. Generally, when we determine the machine material, we usually base it on the characteristics of the working medium, and the same is certainly true for asphalt mixing equipment.

Asphalt mixing equipment is a large-scale equipment, so you must pay attention to safety when using it to avoid accidents. But to put it simply, if you want to truly use it safely, you must master some basic common sense. The following main things must be kept in mind.

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.

Judging from the situation of highways in our country, asphalt pavement is the most used, which is one of the reasons why asphalt mixing plants have developed so rapidly. Under the situation of rapid economic development, the quality problems of asphalt pavement are gradually increasing, which puts forward higher and higher requirements for the quality of asphalt. It is understood that the primary factor that affects the quality of asphalt is the ratio of raw materials. This is also covered in the introduction of asphalt mixing stations. You can discuss it together.
In order to obtain high-quality asphalt products, in addition to the asphalt mixing equipment meeting the requirements, selecting the appropriate asphalt mixture gradation type is also a top priority. According to my country’s current regulations, the maximum particle size of the asphalt mixture in the upper layer of the highway should not exceed half of the layer thickness; while the maximum particle size of the aggregate in the middle surface layer of asphalt mixture should not exceed two-thirds of the layer thickness; and the asphalt layer should not exceed half of the layer thickness. The maximum nominal aggregate size of the pavement structural layer mixture should not exceed one-third of the layer thickness.
Based on this analysis, if an asphalt surface layer with a certain thickness is selected according to the above specifications, the particle size of the asphalt mixture aggregates will generally be larger, which will inevitably bring insurmountable construction difficulties to the construction of asphalt concrete pavement. After investigation, testing, analysis, and comparison, it can be seen that the lower layer has a wider choice, so the AG-201 gradation type can be used; while the selection of the upper layer mixture type is more difficult, and it is necessary to achieve a reasonable choice of this mix ratio. , on the one hand, we must examine as many aggregate resources as possible, and on the other hand, we must also consider the model of the mixing equipment.
In order to ensure the quality of the project, strict selection and inspection of engineering materials must be carried out. Therefore, the selection and determination of raw materials should be based on the requirements for pavement structure and use quality, combined with the supply of floor materials, and inspection in accordance with the requirements of relevant test procedures, and then Select the best materials so that all technical indicators of the materials meet the specified technical requirements.

Asphalt mixing plant refers to a complete set of equipment used for batch production of asphalt concrete. Its main function is to produce asphalt mixture, colored asphalt mixture, etc., and has been widely used in road construction. However, during the production process of asphalt mixture, pollutants such as noise, dust, and asphalt smoke will be produced, seriously polluting the environment and threatening the health of workers. Therefore, under the current background of building a resource-saving and environment-friendly society in our country, it is very important to save energy and reduce consumption during the use of asphalt mixing plants. The following article mainly starts from the three factors that affect the asphalt mixing plant, and explores the energy saving and consumption reduction measures of the asphalt mixing plant, aiming to reduce the cost of asphalt production and improve the efficiency of the asphalt plant.

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.

Oscillating screen. It can screen the heated aggregate according to the design. It requires fully enclosed, double oscillating motor replacement (replacing one substance for another (mostly the strong one takes the place of the weak)) eccentric shaft oscillation, each The layer screen is easy to install quickly. The service life of the drying roller and the power part is not less than 6000h. The roller can fully use heat, the material curtain flows evenly, and the inclination is required to be adjustable.

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.

Asphalt mixing equipment has a special function, which is that it can perform cyclic heating to make the asphalt product reach the best condition. But how does it achieve this function? Everyone is curious about this.

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.

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.
