How to use asphalt mixing plant to be safer and more worry-free?

Asphalt mixing plant is an important production equipment for construction, and its production investment is relatively high. Therefore, during use, production is very important, but daily maintenance is also crucial. In addition to regular maintenance, daily maintenance is also indispensable. The editor of Tate Asphalt Mixing Plant shares several points of daily maintenance and regular maintenance;
Daily maintenance:
Clean the equipment after work every day, keep the inside and outside of the equipment clean, remove the mortar inside the equipment, clean the surface, check the oil gauge position every day, refuel as needed, and ensure reasonable lubrication. Special tools and accessories are customized for storage to prevent loss.
Start the equipment every day to run it idle for 10 minutes, and try to keep the fixed person and machine as still as possible, and do not change the operator at will.
Regular maintenance:
Check the bolts of the tile adhesive production line regularly (such as every month) for looseness.
Regularly change the lubricating oil.
Regularly check whether the pedal is firm.
Check whether the hoist belt is loose.
Regularly inspect and calibrate the packaging machine to see if it is qualified.

The asphalt mixing equipment mentioned here may also refer to an asphalt concrete mixing plant. At present, asphalt mixing equipment generally uses a complete set of equipment for mixing. So what are the benefits of using a complete set of equipment?
1. More effective.
In today’s industrial production, a complete set of asphalt mixing equipment can help improve production efficiency and ensure product quality. This is why even in a mixing plant, the equipment used is a complete set of equipment.
2. Ensure quality.
When mixing asphalt, a certain ratio is set. For this type of asphalt liquid used in different occasions, its ratio control has strict requirements. It is necessary to determine its mixing method and mixing time to ensure that the asphalt liquid is consistent with the production site. One of the advantages of a mixing plant is that the quality can be effectively controlled.
3. It can be sampled.
After mixing at the mixing plant, the quality inspector can sample and inspect to ensure that the mixed asphalt liquid meets the use requirements.
In short, asphalt mixing equipment will use a complete set of equipment, mainly to facilitate the later asphalt to meet production needs. Through the mixing plant, the mixing time and feeding sequence can be better controlled, so that the mixed product can meet different use requirements. And after using the archiving equipment, effective spot checks can be carried out, which can better ensure that the quality meets the construction requirements.

1: The site should be located on higher ground and away from residential areas and densely populated areas.
Because part of the equipment of the mixing station is installed below the ground, in order to avoid continuous rainfall. The equipment will suffer disaster, and the changing aggregate moisture content will affect the concrete quality. Quality accidents are prone to occur. Therefore, during site construction, attention should be paid to the construction of drainage pipelines and sand and gravel quarries. With the rapid development of cities. With the continuous expansion of urban scale, environmental protection requirements will become more and more stringent. Urban roads prohibit gravel vehicles from passing, so concrete mixing plants should be built far away from urban areas.

At present, most asphalt mixing plants have different degrees of energy loss in use, and these losses have brought us serious waste. How to reduce energy consumption in these aspects and achieve efficient production?
First of all, we must first summarize which aspects have energy loss, and then we can find reasonable solutions based on these problems. Through research, it is found that there are four problems in the use of asphalt mixing plants and the production of asphalt mixtures. The content and measures are as follows:
The first aspect is the management of the pile. We can reduce the energy consumption of the asphalt mixing plant through 3 specific methods: 1. Appropriately reduce the stacking height of the pile; 2. Build an inclined pile site with a good drainage structure; 3. Build a waterproof canopy.

When it comes to asphalt mixing plants, I believe many people are familiar with them. Asphalt mixing plants are mainly equipment for producing asphalt concrete, they can achieve batch production and play an indispensable role in many port construction roads. Since the advantages of this equipment are very wide, there are still many precautions when using it. The following editor will briefly introduce to you what precautions are there when working in asphalt mixing plants?
1. Uniform dress
When working in an asphalt mixing plant, the staff must adopt uniform dress and customize special work clothes. If they are working outside the mixing plant or patrolling, they also need to wear safety helmets and safety protective gear. It is strictly forbidden to wear slippers to enter the workplace.
2. Warning
Before the mixing plant starts to operate, professional staff must pull the alarm to warn the surroundings. By warning, the information of starting work can be conveyed to the surrounding staff. For some irrelevant personnel, they should also stay away from dangerous places in time to avoid unnecessary accidents.
3. No open flames
When working in an asphalt mixing plant, the surrounding open flames must be extinguished and smoking is not allowed. If a problem occurs in the mixing station and maintenance is required, the maintenance personnel must wear safety belts before carrying out the maintenance.

People pay more and more attention to urban construction, and the use of asphalt is increasing. The application rate of asphalt mixing station is naturally growing rapidly.
Asphalt mixing station will encounter some faults more or less during use. The most common ones are uneven wear of the supporting wheel and wheel rail. Sometimes there will be some abnormal noise and gnawing. The main reason for this is that after the asphalt mixing station has been working for a period of time, the internal drying cylinder will be subjected to high temperature, and then friction will occur between the supporting wheel and wheel rail.
The above situation will also be accompanied by severe shaking, because the asphalt mixing station will directly cause the gap between the wheel rail and the supporting wheel to be improperly adjusted under the action of the drying material, or the mutual position of the two will be skewed. When encountering this situation, the user should add grease to the surface contact position of the supporting wheel and the wheel rail after daily operation.
In addition, the staff also need to pay attention to and timely adjust the tightness of the fixing nut while adding grease, and then effectively adjust the spacing between the supporting wheel and the wheel rail, so that the asphalt mixing station can work smoothly, all contact points can be evenly stressed, and there will be no shaking.

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 using an asphalt mixing plant, first of all, it needs to have good stability. If it does not have good stability, then the asphalt mixing plant will not be able to meet the requirements of the project in terms of requirements or mass production. For road construction, the measurement requirements of asphalt concrete are relatively strict and precise. Only qualified asphalt concrete can make the quality of road construction meet the actual requirements. Therefore, the stability of the asphalt mixing plant is very important.

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.

When using the asphalt mixing plant, you should regularly check the fuel pressure regulating valve or pressure reducing valve to determine whether the surface of the locking nut on the adjustable bolt is clean and removable; if the surface of the screw or nut is too dirty or rusty, it needs to be repaired or Replace the regulating valve.
Check the oil pump regularly to determine whether the sealing device is intact and whether the internal pressure is stable, and replace any damaged or leaking sealing devices. When using hot oil, check whether all oil pipes are well insulated. The filter installed between the oil tank and the oil pump must be cleaned regularly and checked for excessive wear to ensure that the fuel reaches the oil pump smoothly from the oil tank and to reduce the possibility of potential component failure.

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?

Speaking of asphalt mixing plants, we are not unfamiliar with them. This is a unit equipment specially used for asphalt mixing. In fact, what we really lack understanding of is its gas system. Even the accumulated failures that often occur in the gas system of asphalt mixing plants are not very clear. Facts have proved that only by properly maintaining the various systems of the equipment can efficient production and good benefits be achieved.
The following are four types of gas system failures that often occur in asphalt mixing plants. Let’s analyze the causes of the problems behind the failures one by one.

Emulsion bitumen equipment has stable product quality, closed material transmission, high degree of automation and civilized production, and is easy to standardize management. The double-mill configuration can be used to produce modified emulsified asphalt.
At present, emulsified asphalt equipment is widely used in new technologies and processes for preventive maintenance, such as fog seal, slurry seal, micro-surfacing, cold regeneration, crushed stone seal, cold mix and cold patch materials.
Emulsion bitumen equipment is an emulsion at room temperature formed by dispersing asphalt into the water phase. It is a new material for the use of elements. Compared with traditional hot asphalt, it saves more than 50% of energy and 10%-20% of asphalt, and has little pollution. The biggest feature of emulsified asphalt is that it can be stored at room temperature. It does not need to be heated during spraying and mixing, nor does it need to heat the stone. Therefore, it greatly simplifies the construction, avoids burns and scalds caused by hot asphalt, and avoids the fumigation of asphalt steam when paving high-temperature mixtures. It is very popular among road maintenance workers.

To extend the service life of the dust collector bag in the asphalt mixing plant, maintenance can be carried out from the following aspects:
Daily operation and maintenance
Control operating parameters: strictly control the operating temperature, pressure and air volume of the dust collector to avoid excessively high or low temperature, excessive pressure fluctuations and air volume overload. Generally speaking, the operating temperature of the dust collector in the asphalt mixing plant should be controlled between 120℃-180℃.
Regularly check the cleaning system: ensure the normal operation of the cleaning device, such as the pulse valve, cylinder and other components are fault-free, and the cleaning time and cycle are set reasonably. Regularly check the pressure of the pulse injection system to ensure that the injection pressure is between 0.4-0.6MPa to achieve the best cleaning effect.
Timely deal with leakage problems: Regularly check the sealing of the dust collector, promptly discover and repair leakage points in pipes, flanges, inspection doors and other parts, and prevent dust-containing gas from short-circuiting and wearing the bags.
Regular maintenance
Check the appearance of the bag: Open the dust collector inspection door regularly to check whether the bag is damaged, deformed, blocked or stuck. If a small area of individual bags is found to be damaged, they can be repaired in time; if the damage is serious, new bags need to be replaced.
Clean the surface of the bag: According to the blockage of the bag, compressed air can be used regularly for reverse blowing and cleaning, or special cleaning equipment can be used to clean the surface of the bag to remove dust.
Replace wearing parts: Other wearing parts of the dust collector, such as the filter bag frame, venturi, etc., should also be checked and replaced regularly to ensure the overall performance of the dust collector.
Storage and installation
Proper storage: Unused bags should be stored in a dry and ventilated environment to avoid moisture, rain and direct sunlight to prevent aging of the bag material.
Standard installation: When installing the bag, be careful to avoid contact between the bag and sharp objects to prevent scratches. At the same time, ensure that the bag is firmly installed and well sealed with the flower plate hole to prevent the bag from being worn or falling off due to looseness.

Current highway projects are generally large-investment projects. When carrying out actual project construction, it is very necessary to control the cost of the project. The production cost control and management of asphalt mixing stations in highway projects plays a huge role in controlling the cost of the entire highway project, because the main expenses of highway projects are concentrated on the mixing stations, and almost all the equipment used in highway projects Materials are closely related to the mixing station.

Asphalt mixing stations play an important role in road construction. This article starts from the site selection, commissioning, and acceptance of the asphalt mixing plant, and elaborates on comprehensive and reasonable planning to avoid disturbing the normal construction order.

Synchronous gravel sealing in road maintenance can quickly improve road driving performance, repair anti-skid performance, smoothness, etc. It is used in preventive maintenance and is also one of the methods of low-grade road pavement construction. Synchronous gravel seal has the advantages of high strength, rough surface, non-slip, impermeable, good durability, and prevention of water mist when driving on rainy days. The so-called synchronous gravel sealing layer is to use special equipment, namely the synchronous gravel sealing truck and the bonding material (modified asphalt or modified emulsified asphalt) to be spread simultaneously on the road surface, and the single layer of asphalt wear is formed by natural driving or rolling with a road roller. layer, mainly used as asphalt surface layer.

The asphalt mixing plant is a complete set of equipment for mass production of asphalt concrete. The whole machine of the equipment consists of multiple systems, such as batching system, drying system, combustion system, powder supply system and dust prevention system. Each system is an important part of the asphalt mixing plant.
The working condition of the combustion system of the asphalt mixing plant has a great impact on the whole system, which is related to the economic efficiency of the whole system, temperature control accuracy and flue gas emission indicators. This article will briefly introduce how to judge the working condition of the combustion system of the asphalt mixing plant.
Generally speaking, due to the complexity of the detection equipment and methods, there are no conditions to achieve in the working process of most asphalt mixing plants. Therefore, it is more convenient to judge the working condition by a series of relatively intuitive factors such as the color, brightness and shape of the flame. This method is very simple and effective.

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.

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.

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.

Asphalt mixing plant is one of the main equipment for producing asphalt concrete. It can mix asphalt, gravel, cement and other materials together in a certain proportion to obtain the products required for highway construction. In order to ensure its operating effect, the asphalt mixing plant also needs to be powered on for trial operation before it is officially put into work.
The first step in commissioning is to run a single motor and check whether the current, steering, insulation and mechanical transmission parts are operating normally. After confirming that each motor and mechanical transmission parts are operating correctly, conduct a joint trial run. During the entire process, it is necessary to conduct patrol inspections of key parts. If any abnormal noise is found, the cause should be identified and eliminated in a timely manner.

The mixing speed of asphalt mixing plant equipment is indeed very fast, and the corresponding mixing power must be very high, but the specific amount must be measured in a certain way to determine the scope of use of asphalt mixing equipment. There are many methods to measure the mixing power of asphalt mixing equipment, but the relatively small errors are the motor counter-torque measurement method and the strain measurement method.
When the motor of the asphalt mixing equipment starts running, the electromagnetic moment acting on the motor rotor and the electromagnetic moment acting on the motor stator are equal, but their directions are opposite. Therefore, as long as the torque acting on the stator is measured, the torque on the rotor can be obtained, and the actual mixing torque is obtained after deducting the friction torque on the rotor bearing.
On the premise of knowing the torque and mixing speed, the mixing power of the asphalt mixing equipment can be calculated. This is the so-called motor counter-torque measurement method, which is relatively simple and suitable for smaller mixing systems.

Bitumen is a polymer mixture composed of asphaltene, colloid, aromatic hydrocarbons and saturated hydrocarbons. Asphaltene is dispersed in aromatic hydrocarbons and saturated hydrocarbons with the help of colloid to form a colloidal structure. When the asphaltene content is low, the bitumen has good adhesion, plasticity and fluidity, but poor temperature stability and elasticity
Bitumen modification principle:
Bitumen is a polymer mixture composed of asphaltene, colloid, aromatic hydrocarbons and saturated hydrocarbons. Asphaltene is dispersed in aromatic hydrocarbons and saturated hydrocarbons with the help of colloid to form a colloidal structure. When the asphaltene content is low, the bitumen has good adhesion, plasticity and fluidity, but poor temperature stability and elasticity. The polymer modifier is similar to the asphaltene in bitumen. Its addition, after fully swelling with bitumen, absorbs the aromatic hydrocarbons and colloid in bitumen to form a new colloid, which not only retains or increases the adhesion, plasticity and fluidity of the original bitumen, but also improves the temperature stability and elasticity of bitumen, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the road performance of bitumen.
Bitumen modification process:
The modifier and additive are evenly and finely dispersed into the matrix bitumen, and the contact area between the original bitumen and the modifier is increased as much as possible to ensure full swelling and development, which not only improves the utilization rate of the modifier but also makes the original bitumen performance the most perfect improvement.
The modified bitumen complete production equipment has the following advantages:
1. It is suitable for a variety of modifiers, such as SBS, EVA, PE, etc.;
2. The ratio of modifier to bitumen can be set at any time according to user needs;
3. The production volume of each cycle can be set arbitrarily within the maximum productivity;
4. The modified bitumen has high quality, and the modifier has a small particle size and uniform distribution after emulsification;
5. The production process is fully automatically controlled, and the production records can be queried at any time;
6. The weighing system is accurate in measurement, and the weighing error is less than 1%;

Asphalt mixing plant is a complete set of equipment composed of many systems. It is widely used in the current society. Its components include batching system, drying system, combustion system, hot material lifting, weighing and mixing system and control system.
In the process of asphalt mixing, heating is an indispensable link, because there must be a system for heating in the asphalt mixing station, but the system generally fails for various reasons. So how should the heating system of the asphalt mixing station be improved? This article will briefly explain this issue.
Generally speaking, when the asphalt mixing station is running under low temperature conditions, the asphalt circulation pump and spray pump cannot operate normally, which will cause the asphalt in the asphalt scale to solidify, and then the asphalt mixing station cannot be produced. Therefore, the asphalt mixing station needs a heating system during operation.

1. Small asphalt mixing equipment should be set on a flat ground, and the front and rear wheel axles should be padded with square wood to fix the overhead tires to prevent sliding during use.
2. Check whether the transmission clutch and brake are sensitive and reliable, whether the connecting components are worn, whether the track pulley is outstanding, whether there are obstacles around and the smoothness of each part.
3. The rotation direction of the mixing drum should be consistent with the direction indicated by the arrow. If not, the motor wiring should be corrected.
4. Small asphalt mixing equipment should implement secondary leakage protection measures. Before use, the power should be turned on and the empty vehicle operation is qualified before it can be officially used. During the trial operation, the mixing drum speed should be checked to see if it is appropriate. Under normal circumstances, the empty vehicle speed is slightly faster than the heavy vehicle (after loading) by 2-3 revolutions. If the difference is large, the ratio of the driving wheel to the transmission wheel should be adjusted.
5. When stopping use, the power should be turned off and the switch box should be locked to prevent others from operating it by mistake.
6. When the concrete mixing is finished or it is expected to stop for more than 1 hour, in addition to draining the remaining material, pour stones and clean water into the shaking barrel, start the machine and run it, rinse the mortar stuck on the barrel and unload it completely. There should be no water accumulation in the barrel to prevent the barrel and blades from rusting. At the same time, the dust outside the mixing barrel should be cleaned to keep the machine clean and intact.
7. After starting the machine, always pay attention to whether the operation of each part of the mixer is normal. When stopping the machine, always check whether the mixer blades are bent and whether the screws are knocked off or loose.

Asphalt mixing plant is a relatively important complete set of equipment in people’s lives. There are many components of this equipment, such as grading machine, vibrating screen, belt feeder, powder conveyor, elevator and other parts. Plug valve is one of them, so what is the specific role of plug valve in asphalt mixing plant? This article will give a brief introduction.
The plug valve is first of all a closure or plunger-shaped rotary valve. Generally, it is necessary to rotate 90 degrees to make the channel opening on the valve plug the same as that on the valve body, or to split it to play the role of opening or closing. The shape of the plug valve in the asphalt mixing plant is generally cylindrical or conical.

Any kind of mechanical equipment must go through precise design, testing and other processes before it can be manufactured, and the same is true for asphalt mixing stations. According to the survey, the following stages are necessary for any asphalt mixing plant.
First of all, the main technical parameters of the product to be designed must be determined according to market needs, so construction market research, data analysis and other links are indispensable. Secondly, the ideal working principle and the plan to realize this principle will be determined through innovative conception and optimization screening. , a schematic diagram of the overall design scheme should also be given.

At present, the assembly and installation technology of large-scale asphalt concrete mixing equipment in high-grade highway construction is gradually improving. In order to improve work efficiency, it is necessary to analyze the pretreatment agent for the selection and matching of large-scale mixing equipment and auxiliary equipment, and clarify the installation and commissioning of asphalt stations. With the continuous change of highway construction methods, it is necessary to adopt production equipment according to the requirements of the development of the times. Intermittent asphalt mixing equipment is a widely used road construction equipment with the characteristics of simple operation and high work efficiency. Relevant staff are required to master the installation, construction and management methods of mixing equipment.

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.
