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.
Benninghoven claims that its innovative asphalt transfer system boosts the capabilities of the firm’s ECO mixing plant range. The newly developed alternating chute unit is fitted to the firm’s ECO asphalt plant and is said to be a key development for the sector, with a patent pending. The ECO asphalt plant is offered with output ranging from 100-320tonnes/hour and is said to combine the latest Benninghoven technology and quality. Designed for mobility, the plants fit inside standard shipping containers
Warm mix asphalt is said to offer many benefits including fewer emissions and energy savings, but further research is needed to "validate its expected performance and added value" claims one organisation. Patrick Smith reports
