In the cold winter, the following points should be noted when using bitumen melter equipment

In the cold winter, the following points should be noted when using bitumen melter equipment:

1. Keep warm: The bitumen melter equipment needs to be operated indoors or in a place with sunshade facilities, and ensure that the temperature of the bitumen melter and the surrounding environment is kept within an appropriate range.
2. Check the bitumen melting equipment: Before use, the bitumen melter should be checked, including whether the circuit, liquid circuit and other parts of the equipment are working properly, and whether the equipment has leakage, water leakage and other conditions.
3. Pay attention to safety: During operation, protective bitumen melter equipment should be worn to avoid direct contact with hot bitumen. At the same time, avoid overloading the bitumen melter to prevent equipment damage and safety accidents.
4. Control speed: Reasonably control the working speed of the bitumen melting equipment according to weather conditions and road conditions to avoid overheating of the equipment, which may cause the bitumen to flow too quickly or burn.
5. Storage conditions: When not in use, place the equipment in a dry, ventilated and moderately warm place, and ensure that the residue in the equipment is completely cleaned.

    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.

    In order to better play the role of slurry seal vehicles, this article explains the matters that should be noted from the aspects of the scope of application, type and material selection, construction technology, common diseases, etc. of slurry seal vehicles.
    The slurry seal vehicle is thin in thickness and mainly plays the role of waterproofing, anti-skid, wear-resistant and improving the appearance of the road surface. In the pavement structure system, it can only serve as a surface protection layer and wear layer, but not a load-bearing structure. It is widely used in the construction and maintenance of highways. Practice has proved that the slurry seal can also play an important role by reasonably selecting the thickness and type of the slurry seal and strictly controlling the construction technology and quality.
    (1). The scope of application of slurry seal vehicles includes the following aspects:
    1. When the pavement damage index of expressways and first-class highways is evaluated as medium and below, or the pavement damage index of second-class and below highways is evaluated as secondary and below, when medium repair and overlay measures should be taken, slurry seal can be selected.
    2. When the pavement driving quality index of expressways and first-class highways is evaluated as medium or below, or the pavement driving quality index of second-class and below highways is evaluated as second or below, medium repair and overlay measures should be taken to improve its flatness, and slurry seal can be selected.
    3. For sections of expressways and first-class highways with insufficient anti-skid capacity (SFC<40), or sections of second-class and below highways with insufficient anti-skid capacity (SFC<33.5), measures such as adding overlays should be taken to provide anti-skid capacity of the road surface. 4. Anti-skid layer and waterproof protective layer used for third- and fourth-class highways to improve the appearance of the road surface.

    Emulsified asphalt is an emulsion that disperses asphalt into the water phase to form a liquid at room temperature. This determines that emulsified asphalt has many technical and economic advantages over hot asphalt and diluted asphalt. We know that modified asphalt equipment is a road engineering machinery. In order to better promote users’ understanding of it, today the editor will introduce its characteristics to you so that users can better understand that modified asphalt equipment is used for modified asphalt. It consists of a main machine, a modifier feeding system, a finished product tank, a heat transfer oil reheating furnace and a microcomputer control system. The main machine is equipped with a mixing tank, a dilution tank, a colloid mill and an electronic weighing device. The entire production process is controlled by a computer automatic program. In addition, it can be learned that the product has the advantages of reliable quality, stable performance, accurate measurement, and convenient operation. It is an indispensable new equipment in highway construction. The advantages of asphalt equipment are prominently reflected in its two-way modification effect, that is, while greatly increasing the softening point of asphalt, it also significantly enhances the low-temperature ductility, improves the temperature sensitivity, and has a particularly large elasticity and recovery rate. The modified asphalt equipment has a long service life and a safe and reliable production process. The rotor and stator are specially heat treated, and the service life of the equipment is more than 15,000 hours.

    Asphalt spreader is an irreplaceable tool for highway maintenance. Asphalt spreader is an irreplaceable tool for highway maintenance. Highway maintenance is divided into four categories according to the nature of the project, scale, and technical complexity: minor repair, medium repair, major repair, and improvement. Specific classification:
    (1) Minor repair and maintenance project: preventive maintenance and repair of slightly damaged parts of the highway and all its engineering facilities to keep them in good condition. It is usually planned and carried out daily by the maintenance team within the annual minor repair and maintenance quota funds on a monthly (ten-day) basis.
    (2) Medium repair project: regular repair and reinforcement of general wear and tear and local damage of highway engineering facilities to restore them to their original state. It is usually planned and implemented by grassroots road maintenance agencies on an annual (seasonal) basis.
    (3) Major repair project: periodic comprehensive repair of major damage to highway facilities to fully restore them to the original design standards, or local improvements and individual additions within the original technical level to gradually improve the highway’s traffic capacity. It is usually organized and implemented by grassroots road maintenance agencies or with the help of their superior agencies according to the approved annual project budget.
    (4) Improvement projects are large projects that improve the technical level of roads and their engineering facilities in stages and sections due to their inability to meet traffic volume and load requirements, or significantly improve traffic capacity through improvements. It is usually organized and implemented or completed through bidding by regional road maintenance agencies or provincial road maintenance agencies according to the approved plan and design budget.
