Drying Drum

The 4 gear motors drives the drum in even speed.There is 50 mm thermal insulation material outside the drum. Keep the temperature inside and make sure the complete drying in asphalt batch mix plant.

screener-of-asphalt-mixing plant

Vibrate Screener

The screen has 4 layers and 1 mixed room in the whole batch mix asphalt plants. The vibrator shaking the screen. The aggregate in different sizes go into the mixed room together after weighing.

Twin Shaft Mixer

The mixer with two axis driven by 2 separate motor sin the whole asphalt plant. The aggregate and the other materials mix adequately inside. This section is important for asphalt mixing plant manufacturer.

Bitumen Supply

The thermal oil heating system keep the bimumen warm. The warm oil go through the pipes inside the bitumen bin to keep bitumen standard temperature as request.The better bitumen keeping makes the whole asphalt batch mixing plant runs well.

Dust Collector

There are hundreds of NOMEX bag filters inside. the filter bags keep the dust when they come inside along the wind.Especially work well in asphalt batch mix plant.

The transport of asphalt mixing plant

If the model below ST2000, the 20GP, 40HC containers always be used to load the dismantled asphalt plants. If the models above ST2000, besides of the standard containers, we need to use the OT containers, flat rack, platform container, or directly take the asphalt mixing plants to RO-Ro ships. The 13.5m and the 17.5m flatform truck always be applied in delivering the batch mix asphalt plants from our factory to the port.
