According to the configuration, layout and controllability of bitumen melting equipment, bitumen melting plant can be divided into three types: mobile, transportable and portable.

Because the bitumen melter equipment can directly change the production site, it is suitable for the production of emulsion bitumen in construction sites with decentralized projects, small usage and frequent movement.

With the help of asphalt melting equipments hoisting equipment, it is quickly installed and put into operation. Such bitumen melter plant has large, medium and small different configurations, which can meet different project requirements.
During the production, the viscosity of the bitumen melting equipment decreases with the increase of temperature. For every increase of 12℃, its dynamic viscosity decreases by about one time. When manufacturing bitumen melting equipment, the cultivated matrix bitumen must be heated to liquid before emulsion can be carried out. In addition, in order to integrate the dissolution capacity of the colloid mill into the bitumen melting plants, the bitumen melting equipment generally controls the dynamic viscosity of the cultivated matrix bitumen to be about 200cst. The lower the temperature, the higher the viscosity of the asphalt melting plants. Increasing the pressure of the asphalt pump and the colloid mill will make the bitumen melting equipment unable to emulsify.
In order to prevent the water content in the finished product from being vaporized and multi-effect evaporated during the production of the bitumen melting equipment, it is also difficult to heat the temperature of the cultivated matrix bitumen of the bitumen melting equipment too high. Generally, the temperature of the finished product at the inlet and outlet of the colloid mill should be controlled to be lower than 85℃. The temperature of the asphalt melting equipment during production and the key control method of the viscosity of the asphalt melting plant should be properly operated according to the instructions, so that its characteristics can be fully demonstrated. There are many different models and specifications of bitumen melting equipment.
Because general bitumen melter equipment also has different classifications, when manufacturing modified material bitumen melting equipment, it is necessary to pay attention to whether the commonly used raw materials are required for general asphalt melting plant and ensure quality and quantity. Asphalt melting equipment is a compound of high molecular weight nitrogen oxides, which is very sensitive to temperature. When the temperature is higher than 180°C, the bitumen in the bitumen melting plant dissolves into dispersed carbon, and the precipitation of cementite and bitumen melting equipment substances seriously affects the elongation and adhesion of bitumen, and affects the properties and performance of bitumen.
Temperature is an important factor affecting the properties and performance of bitumen melting plants, so the heating temperature and heating time must be strictly controlled. If the temperature of the bitumen melting plant is too high or the heating time is too long, the performance of the bitumen melting equipment will be affected to varying degrees, thereby affecting the quality of construction. The temperature of the vulcanized rubber asphalt melter equipment must be maintained during use.

    We have conducted in-depth research on asphalt distributors and have accumulated a lot of production technology experience. We have conducted professional and in-depth research on some problems existing in the market to provide convenience for everyone in future production applications.
    Every time when spraying asphalt, the asphalt distributor does not spray asphalt. Troubleshooting. The asphalt distributor does not spray asphalt. It is a common fault. The following teaches you how to solve the problem of not spraying asphalt.
    1. No asphalt spraying
    Analysis of the reasons may be the following reasons:
    1. Is the asphalt pump working?
    2. Are the valves adjusted correctly?
    3. Is the pump or pipeline blocked?
    2. Troubleshooting method
    1. Check whether the hydraulic system is working properly?
    2. After adjusting the valve position, the asphalt distributor must be cleaned to avoid pipeline blockage when used next time. Because the asphalt distributor has different high and low configurations, it can spread various high-viscosity and high-temperature modified asphalts and rubber asphalt in high configuration. If you mistakenly use a low-configuration asphalt truck to spread this type of asphalt, you must spray the asphalt inside the entire vehicle clean after the first use. After spraying, in order to leave no residual asphalt, you can use waste diesel to clean it. Our company’s vehicles are equipped with air cleaning and gravity cleaning devices. Diesel cleaning is a reliable cleaning method.

    We need to prepare a lot of work when using modified asphalt equipment. What kind of work do we need to prepare? Next, let me briefly introduce the relevant knowledge points.
    1. Heat transfer oil heats and insulates the modified asphalt equipment and nozzle. After spraying, the asphalt pump and nozzle do not need to be cleaned with diesel. Use high-pressure air to press the asphalt in the pipeline and spray pipe back to the tank, and then blow the nozzle; use heat transfer oil to keep warm, so that the pipeline and nozzle are smooth and unobstructed. 2. Various asphalts can be spread: high-viscosity asphalt, hot asphalt, emulsified asphalt, etc.; the spreading width can be freely adjusted, each nozzle can be controlled separately, and the maximum spraying width is up to 6m. Flexible handheld spray guns can be used to spray asphalt on corners. 3. Excellent thermal insulation performance, average cooling ≤1-2℃/h. 4. Convenient loading and unloading function. In addition to filling asphalt from the asphalt tank port, hot asphalt can be sucked out by itself, and external asphalt can also be pumped and transferred. 5. The modified asphalt equipment is evenly spread, and the nozzle design can be used for triple overlapping spraying.
    The above are the relevant knowledge points of modified asphalt equipment. I hope the above content can be helpful to everyone. Thank you for your viewing and support. More information will be sorted out for you later. Please pay attention to our website updates.

    From the current point of view, road construction machinery has bottomed out and asphalt meltering equipment has risen rapidly. In recent years, highway construction and maintenance departments have a strong awareness of using asphalt mixing equipment, especially in developed coastal areas such as Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, etc. In addition, these regions have a fast economic growth rate, relatively developed industry, and strong comprehensive economic strength. Therefore, the consumption of asphalt mixing equipments in these regions has always been at the forefront of the country. With the rapid development of highway construction and the increase in demand for asphalt, barreled asphalt has been widely used for its convenient transportation and easy storage. In particular, most of the high-performance imported asphalt used in high-grade highways is in barrel form, which requires an asphalt meltering equipment with fast melting speed, clean de-barreling, and can prevent asphalt aging. my country’s highway construction has achieved remarkable results, among which mechanized production has contributed greatly. Different types of asphalt mixers and bitumen meltering equipment are selected for the characteristics of large highway pavement construction and tight construction period. With the rapid development of my country’s economy, the further extension of expressways, and the large-scale development of western construction, the central and western regions have become new investment hotspots. While paying attention to the market in the developed eastern regions, domestic road construction machinery manufacturers have also increased their efforts to develop the central and western markets, creating new highlights for the domestic asphalt mixing plants consumer market. In summary, my country’s asphalt mixing plant sales market has begun to move westward with the westward movement of investment hotspots. As the market center of gravity gradually shifts westward, the market in the western region is gradually heating up. The self-heating integrated structure, hot air barrel melting and bitumen barrel flipping technology in the asphalt barrel removal equipment are our company’s self-heating integrated structure. The thermal oil furnace used in the old equipment is perfectly integrated with the asphalt barrel removal equipment body, which reduces the volume of the entire set of equipment, greatly reduces equipment investment, saves equipment space and transfer transportation costs.

    The advantages of Sinoroader bitumen decanter equipment over similar domestic equipment are reflected in the following points:
    1. The equipment produces 8-10t/hour, with an automatic telescopic sealed container structure. It uses an electric hoist to lift the asphalt barrel at the inlet guide tube. Start to control the hydraulic cart forward button, which will promote the barrel push (push and slide into the barrel). It is a 1300mm hydraulic cylinder with a 7.5-ton top thrust. The device has a beautiful appearance, reasonable layout, compactness, stable performance, and is suitable for production under various industrial and mining conditions.
    2. Fast barrel removal: According to the principle of layered heating, it adopts four-layer thermal oil heating technology, a single inlet and outlet, and high thermal efficiency of heating; at the same time, it uses the waste heat of combustion gas for two heatings and efficient use of energy; the barrel body uses high-quality rock wool insulation material.
    3. Good environmental protection: closed structure, no pollution.
    4. No barrel hanging: The upper part of the asphalt barrel is hot, and each is directly affected by the thermal oil heating pipe. The barrel wall directly receives the heat dissipation of the heating coil, and the barrel is clean and fast, which will not cause waste of asphalt barrel hanging.
    5. Strong adaptability: Suitable for imported and domestic barrels, and the deformation of asphalt barrels will not affect production.
    6. Good dehydration: Use a large-displacement asphalt pump for internal circulation, stirring, water vapor overflows, and is naturally discharged from the exhaust port. After dehydration, asphalt can be directly used to produce asphalt mixture or used as matrix asphalt.
    7. Automatic slag removal: This set of equipment has an automatic slag removal function. The filter device sets the asphalt circulation pipeline through the filter, which can automatically remove the barreled asphalt slag.
    8. Safe and reliable: The equipment adopts an automatic control system, an automatic ignition burner import, can automatically control the temperature according to the temperature, and is equipped with corresponding monitoring instruments.
    9. Convenient relocation: The whole machine is assembled with large components, which is easy to move and quick to assemble.

    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.
