Mobile Asphalt Plant

Product Description

What is a Mobile Asphalt Plant?

A Mobile Asphalt Plant is a flexible, compact, and transportable version of a traditional asphalt mixing plant. It is designed for easy relocation, making it ideal for remote or short-duration road construction projects. It combines all essential components of asphalt production into a mobile unit or trailer-mounted modules.

Main Components of a Mobile Asphalt Plant

1. Cold Aggregate Feeder Bins

   • Stores and feeds aggregates of various sizes.

   • Equipped with conveyor belts and adjustable gates.

2. Drying Drum

   • Dries and heats aggregates.

   • Integrated with the mixing section in most mobile plants (drum mix type).

3. Burner

   • Provides heat to the drying drum.

   • Uses fuels like diesel, natural gas, or coal.

4. Mixing Unit

   • Mixes hot aggregates with bitumen and filler.

   • Located in the same drum (for drum mix plants) or separate (for mobile batch plants).

5. Bitumen Storage Tank

   • Stores and heats bitumen.

   • Includes a pump to transfer bitumen to the mixing drum.

6. Filler Storage and Feeding System

   • Stores mineral fillers like stone dust.

   • Feeds them into the drum for improved asphalt strength.

7. Dust Collection System

   • Prevents dust pollution.

   • Usually includes a primary dust collector and secondary baghouse filter or wet scrubber.

8. Control Panel / Cabin

   • Centralized control of the plant.

   • Fully or semi-automatic systems with digital displays.

9. Fuel Tank

   • Supplies fuel to the burner.

   • Mounted on a skid or trailer for easy transport.

10. Chassis / Trailer Frame

• All major components are mounted on wheels or skids.

• Designed for quick setup and transport.

Types of Mobile Asphalt Plants

Mobile Drum Mix Plant

1. • Continuous production.

   • Mixing and drying in the same drum.

   • Faster, compact, ideal for small/medium projects.

Working Process

1. Aggregates are fed into cold bins.

2. Conveyed to the drying drum and heated.

3. Bitumen and filler added to the hot aggregates.

4. Final asphalt mix is discharged into tippers or stored in a silo.

5. Mix is transported to the road site for laying.

Capacity Range

• Mini Plants: 2030 TPH

• Medium Plants: 4060 TPH

• Large Mobile Plants: 80120+ TPH
