Ammann unveils containerised QuickBatch mobile asphalt mixing plant
April 22, 2015
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.
Minnich Manufacturing says that its new 50cc backpack concrete vibrator is versatile and easy to use. The unit is powered by a Honda 50cc motor and features an ergonomically designed, fully adjustable harness.
Çesan has developed the King Batch 280 T/H for applications where customers face problems with a lack of infrastructure. The compact design allows it to be transported anywhere in the world, claimed the company, in just eight containers, significantly reducing transport costs.
The company has also developed a mechanical base for the plant, allowing it to be assembled and commissioned on any surface. Previously, asphalt plants required purpose-built concrete slabs for effective installation.
The crushing and screening phase is a crucial component in aggregate production and new development will help optimise performance - Mike Woof reports Crushing and screening is a key part of the quarrying cycle and has a huge impact on overall operating performance. Optimising operations will cut running costs, reduce materials wastage and also provide a more consistent product quality, boosting cost-effectiveness dramatically. An array of innovations were revealed to the market at the recent INTERMAT 2012
Ammann has developed a prototype autonomous vibratory plate. This innovative tool allows fast working in dangerous work areas and has been recognised by the bauma innovation awards for its advanced technology. The plate is said to be easy to use and the operator first sets out the boundaries by remotely navigating the plate around the jobsite perimeter. The compactor is then able to start work on its own in the set area while the operator carries out other tasks. The machine automatically detects the set bo
