What is the difference between an asphalt mixing plant and an asphalt mixing plant?
Many people think that since both asphalt mixing plants and asphalt mixing plants are equipment for producing asphalt, there should be no difference between them, even if there is, it is only in appearance and volume. However, asphalt mixing plants and asphalt mixing plants are different in even their basic structure and function.
First, let me introduce the basic structure of an asphalt mixing plant, which includes five major components: material supply system, metering system, mixing system, and electrical control system. In comparison, the structure of an asphalt mixing plant is simpler, without so many components, so its operation and maintenance will be simpler.

Moreover, in an asphalt mixing plant, the aggregate silo is located above the equipment, and the aggregate enters the mixer directly after metering; while in an asphalt mixing plant, it is just the opposite, with the aggregate silo at the bottom, and the aggregate needs to be conveyed by an inclined belt after metering before entering the mixer. It is precisely because the aggregate silo in the asphalt mixing plant is at the top, so the steel structure will be larger, and the inclined belt will be relatively longer, but its production efficiency will also be higher. In actual operation, the energy consumption and failure rate will increase due to the frequent start-up of the inclined belt of the asphalt mixing plant; while the energy consumption and failure rate of the asphalt mixing plant are relatively low. In addition, since the production capacity of the mixing plant is small and the structure is easy to disassemble and assemble, it can be formed into a container transfer location, which is suitable for construction sites.
The asphalt mixing plant belongs to the building structure, with a large volume and high productivity. It can only be used as a fixed mixing device, which is suitable for large-scale water conservancy projects or large-volume asphalt supply. When choosing, users should choose the appropriate equipment based on the number of aggregate lifting times, production efficiency and other aspects.
