Marini’s sophisticated EvoDryer offers a quality mix

Marini’s efficient EvoDryer system is said to offer high efficiency and high quality for asphalt batching applications. The drum is now longer and the burner has been redesigned to ensure performance is maximised.

A key feature of the reconfigured design is with the reduction of blue smoke from the pugmill and discharge areas. This is now collected and filtered to minimise emissions.

Meanwhile, the air out of the drum is also filtered to reduce emissions. And the hot air is also recirculated into the drum, boosting efficiency and reducing fuel consumption. Recirculating the air also reduces the emissions from the plant, a major boost for environmental performance.

    A series of developments in the milling machine market will give customers both greater choice and performance – Mike Woof writes. Competition is heating up in the market for milling machines, which has been dominated for many years by Wirtgen. The German firm still retains a strong share of this market, but is now facing much tougher levels of competition from key rivals, and Atlas Copco, BOMAG, Caterpillar and Roadtec in particular. Meanwhile the market is also seeing the return of another familiar nam

    A new asphalt plant has offered a major productivity and efficiency gain for a producer in the US. The privately-owned Tully Group has opted to replace two batch plants with a single large plant for its operation in the US state of Connecticut. The Tully Group’s Tully Construction Company has been a major asphalt producer/contractor in New York for many years and has had success in producing and placing RAP in the area. When the Tully Group purchased the Galasso Materials operation in East Granby, three b

    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.
