From the biggest asphalt plants to the smallest vibratory plates: whatever your job size, the company can handle it - and the technology is easy to use too
The High Recycling Technology (HRT) Asphalt Batch Plant is a premium Ammann plant, with advanced technologies. It can incorporate up to 100% RAP with extremely low energy consumption and emissions.
The double-drum system combines a virgin aggregate drum with either an RAH60 or RAH100 recycling drum. Indirect, gentle heating reduces fuel burn and emissions. Heat distribution is more homogenous, too, which prevents sticking – as does the vertical flow.
New generation wheeled pavers aimed at use in territories such as the UK, Italy, South Africa and Southern Germany are now coming to market. Pavers in these countries are often expected to be driven from one part of a site to another or for short distances, which is why the additional mobility of the wheeled machine is preferred in many instances over similarly-sized tracked models. This preference for wheeled units comes in spite of the greater stability offered by tracked machines. BOMAG, Caterpillar and
Control systems play a crucial role in effective and efficient asphalt production. Production manager Richard Stott works for Aggregate Industries and focuses on ensuring that output is maximised. At the same time, Stott also follows the company policy on utilising the most sustainable technology and processes available
Delivering on both fronts is no small task, but the firm has achieved that at its facility in Sheffield in the UK. RAP utilisation is high and meets the company’s sustainability goals. Pr
New technology for concrete production will help boost efficiency
New advances in concrete plant technology will help boost materials quality for users. The latest machines are more versatile and more productive than previous generation equipment. Ease of transport and fast assembly/disassembly and commissioning are other important factors for the latest plants.
Research and development is an important issue for all manufacturers in the segment. With Liebherr for example having two new laboratory mixe
