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.
Hyper-mobility is constantly demanded by customers who favour continuous plants, especially in France. However, compromises must always be sought in the high output equipment range, says Ermont (part of the FAYAT Group), and major progress has been made in the parallel flow field with the 500tonne/hr and 600tonne/hr TSM plants, whereas the Rétroflux type of the counterflow plants have lagged somewhat behind. This gap has now been closed with the development of the hyper-mobile RF 400, capable of producing 4
Increasing asphalt plant sophistication will boost the capabilities for the use of recycled materials - Mike Woof writes Major innovation is being seen in the asphalt plant sector with many of the major manufacturers developing sophisticated new plants. The increased use of recycled materials and reduced fumes emissions are all important issues for the segment. In the US for example, the potential for recycled asphalt has been well identified. It is now one of the most frequently recycled industrial materia
