Normally, the working object of an asphalt mixing plant is asphalt, but if concrete is added to it, how should the equipment be controlled? Let me briefly explain to you how to control an asphalt mixing plant under special circumstances.
For concrete with admixtures, the dosage, method of admixture and mixing time must be strictly controlled, because these are important factors affecting the quality of the final product. It cannot be ignored because of the small amount of admixture, nor can it be used as a way to save costs. At the same time, it is strictly forbidden to shorten the mixing time in order to speed up the progress.
The selected admixture method must not be sloppy. The concrete needs to be hydrolyzed before admixture. It must not be dry mixed. Once concrete agglomerates, it cannot be used. At the same time, in order to control its stability, the amount of water reducer or air entraining agent must be controlled to ensure that the asphalt mixing plant can produce high-quality products.
