Ammann unveils containerised QuickBatch mobile asphalt mixing plant
January 6, 2017
In response to customer demand, Ammann has developed a new QuickBatch 180 containerised mobile asphalt mixing plant that is easy to transport and quick to set up. It uses a simple “plug and play” electric system.
Ammann says that its QuickBatch plant has been transport-optimised to make it more mobile and versatile. The new QuickBatch plant is designed for easy, cost-effective transportation and installation. The plant fits into a series of standard shipping containers, making it easy to move from one site to another. In conventional layout it can be carried in nine containers, though additional features may require more units. Typical additions include special equipment for handling RAP and using this in asphalt pr
Greek construction company Intrakat likes a challenge. It recently took on two closely scheduled airport projects – but it had only a single asphalt plant.
Intrakat used the transport-optimised Ammann ABT QuickBatch Asphalt-Mixing Plant to produce mix at the airport on the island of Mykonos airport. Afterwards, the plant was packed and ferried to Kos.
The upgraded runways at Mykonos and Kos are two of the 14 Greek airports being rehabilitated within seven months. Intrakat is handling mix production at
New generation asphalt plants offer key benefits such as being more versatile, more mobile and able to cope with greater quantities of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) - Mike Woof writes
Several asphalt plant manufacturers are introducing new technologies for 2016. Key developments focus on issues such as the use of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) and plant mobility, as well as improved mix control. Output quality has been improved by the latest technology, which can allow for much higher quantities of RA
Advances in asphalt plant technology were in major evidence at the bauma 2016 exhibition in Munich - Mike Woof writes
One of the most apparent developments at bauma 2016 was the strong focus on asphalt plant technology. The massive physical presence of the asphalt plants could be seen from a distance, right across the showground, particularly the 50m-high machine Benninghoven had opted to exhibit. However, other plant systems from rival firms Ammann, Lintec and Marini, as well as Turkish company E-MAK, c
