Feed materials are weighed simultaneously to boost productivity and the plants can also be equipped with an overhead drum so as to use recycled asphalt.

The firm reports success in an array of overseas markets including India, Kazakhstan, the Lebanon, Latin America, Mongolia, Nigeria, Russia, Sri Lanka, Syria, Uzbekistan and Vietnam, and intends to boost overseas sales.

The firm is now establishing a manufacturing operation in Kazakhstan and will see the first products rolling out of the factory in 2012. The machines will be sold into Kazakhstan, Russia and Uzbekistan and the first units will be built from kits.
Deputy managing director Shawn Liu said: "We are thinking of manufacturing in India, though the first step is to set up in Kazakhstan."

As road traffic increases at a rapid pace and road safety becomes a priority issue, asphalt is put under increasingly higher stresses. For example, road surfaces are subject to compression, flexural tensions and tangential stresses: internal friction, depending on the aggregates, and the cohesion, guaranteed by bitumen's composition, are the two main properties whic
