Asphalt mixing plant is also called asphalt mixture mixing equipment, which is mainly used to produce asphalt mixtures of various specifications. It is an important equipment in projects such as road construction, highway maintenance and airport runway construction. The main components of an asphalt mixing plant include cold material supply system, drying drum, screening system, weighing system, agitator, finished product silo and control system.
The workflow of an asphalt mixing plant is generally as follows:
Cold material supply system: Aggregates of different specifications and types (such as crushed stone, sand, etc.) are fed into the drying drum according to the set ratio.
Drying drum: Aggregates are heated by hot air in the drying drum to remove moisture and preheat.
Screening system: The preheated aggregates are screened to separate aggregates of different particle sizes to meet the ratio requirements of the asphalt mixture.
Weighing system: According to the set ratio, the dried aggregates, mineral powder, asphalt and other raw materials are weighed separately.
Agitator: The weighed raw materials are fully stirred in the agitator so that the asphalt is evenly wrapped on the surface of the aggregate to form an asphalt mixture.
Finished product silo: The mixed asphalt mixture is sent to the finished product silo for storage and waits to be transported to the construction site. Control system: The working process of the entire asphalt mixing plant is monitored and controlled by the control system to ensure the stability of the production process and product quality. The performance and production efficiency of the asphalt mixing plant have an important impact on the quality and progress of road projects. Therefore, when choosing an asphalt mixing plant, it is necessary to consider factors such as its production capacity, batching accuracy, mixing quality, environmental protection performance, equipment reliability and maintenance convenience. At the same time, during use, the equipment needs to be regularly maintained and serviced to ensure its normal operation and extend its service life.

    The drive unit is one of the important components of the asphalt mixing plant, so whether it can be reliably operated must be highly valued to avoid adverse effects on the entire asphalt mixing plant. In order to ensure that the drive unit in the asphalt mixing plant is indeed complete and reliable, the following maintenance measures are essential.
    The first thing to pay attention to is the universal rotating part of the drive unit of the asphalt mixing plant. This part has always been a fault-prone part. In order to reduce the occurrence of faults, grease should be added on time, and the wear should be checked frequently, and repaired and replaced in time. Users should also prepare the universal shaft assembly to avoid affecting the working process of the entire asphalt mixer.
    Secondly, the cleanliness of the hydraulic oil used in the asphalt mixing plant must be ensured. After all, the working environment of the equipment is relatively harsh, so it is necessary to prevent sewage and mud from entering the hydraulic system. The hydraulic oil should also be replaced regularly according to the requirements of the manual. Once water or mud is found mixed in the hydraulic oil during inspection, the hydraulic system should be stopped immediately to clean the hydraulic system and replace the hydraulic oil.
    Since there is a hydraulic system, of course, a matching cooling device is also required, which is also an important focus in the drive system of the asphalt mixing plant. To ensure that its function can be fully exerted, on the one hand, the hydraulic oil radiator should be cleaned regularly to prevent the radiator from being blocked by cement; on the other hand, the radiator electric fan should be checked to see if it is running normally to prevent the hydraulic oil temperature from exceeding the standard.
    In general, as long as the hydraulic oil of the asphalt mixing plant drive device is kept clean, there are generally few faults; but the service life varies from manufacturer to manufacturer, so pay attention to its alkalinity observation and replace it in real time.

    The mobile forced asphalt mixing equipment adopts intermittent drying cylinder, double forced mixer, the main machine can be towed, small footprint, short installation cycle, convenient operation and maintenance, good stability, high degree of automation, high degree of standardization, and high quality of finished products, and the technology of continuous improvement. The mobile forced asphalt mixing plant is suitable for high-grade road asphalt paving and maintenance.
    1. The combined structure of the drum dryer and the batching machine is installed on a movable bracket for easy movement.
    2. The asphalt mixing plant is equipped with a double horizontal shaft to boil the aggregate and ensure uniform mixing.
    3. In the densely arranged hanging barrels, the hot aggregate rises vertically. This lifting tool is easy to use and reliable.
    4. For accurate weighing of aggregates, asphalt and powder ore, a measuring scale is used, which contains a weighing sensor for electronic measurement.
    5. The movement of the power material follows a closed spiral path, which ensures little material loss and provides safe transfer.
    6. On the cyclone burner, high-pressure oil is sprayed out and quickly atomized. In the combustion chamber, the material is fed in a spiral manner and automatically ignited by the oil mist, which ensures combustion efficiency. The cylindrical barrel of the burner is separated from the burner head. The furnace cavity can be pushed in and pulled out, which is convenient for replacing the damaged side column bricks inside the burner. The entire burner has a large heat capacity and high thermal strength. This is cost-effectiveness.
