Emulbitume’s unit produces 2 tonnes per hour of cold mix

209 Emulbitume says that says that it has delivered and set up its first mini cold mix unit in Algeria.

The fully automatic machine is a complete production system including production of cold mix and packing system for bags and buckets. A PLC – programmable logic controller - monitors the system and makes decisions based upon a custom programme to control output.

Emulbitume assembled the unit and provided initial technical assistance including start-up for its customer, Souf Bitume, near Oued Souf.

Emulbitume said that the system can be stored for a long time, more than six months in some cases, before being used.

The machine produces 2 tonnes per hour of cold mix and its operating cycle is given by the capacity of the mixer which is 100kg. Just after production, the cold mix is sent to the packing system with a screw and a weighing system enable to fill-in the bags and the drums. Total production rate is 80 bags per hour, suitable for efficient road maintenance.
 
For this special application, Emulbitume can also provide the bags which are designed for hard handling and road field.
 
Emulbitume noted that, according to data collected after industrial-scale production began, the machine is running perfectly and the final product is of a very good quality.

    Versatility and productivity are key drivers for the concrete plant sector - Mike Woof writes. The days of most construction machines being expressly designed and built for a single specific purpose have gone. These days construction equipment is largely intended to be versatile and adaptable, allowing it to be operated in a wide array of applications and duties. New concrete plants are designed too for mobility as this allows users to set up highly productive equipment quickly on basic sites, with little p

    Benninghoven has built an asphalt plant specially to order for a customer in Norway. Contractor Veidekke had a tight timeframe in which the plant could be erected at the firm’s chosen site in Sörli, as well as specific requirements as to its configuration. Benninghoven was able to construct the special TBA 4000 UC asphalt mixing plant to the firm’s request. A notable feature of the plant is that its large capacity materials towers stand 33m high. The order was received in January 2014, with the plant the
