The stationary plants are manufactured for reliable long-term production at fixed project locations.
Overview of Asphalt Drum Mix Plant
An asphalt drum mix plant is continuous-production equipment that dries, heats and mixes aggregates with bitumen inside a rotating drum.
Gajjar Equipments’ plant is engineered to provide:
- Continuous hot mix asphalt production
- Accurate aggregate proportioning
- Uniform heating and mixing
- Consistent pavement mix quality
- Efficient material movement
- Reduced operational interruptions
- Convenient operation and maintenance
- Reliable performance in demanding road projects
Its primary components include cold aggregate bins, a vibratory screen, charging conveyor, dryer and mixing drum, burner unit, bitumen tank, pollution-control system, control panel and load-out conveyor.
Available Asphalt Drum Mix Plant Models
Gajjar Equipments offers multiple DMX models to match different production requirements in Mozambique.
| Model Number | Rated Production Capacity* | Recommended Project Scale |
| DMX-30 | 30–45 TPH | Small roads and maintenance projects |
| DMX-45 | 40–60 TPH | Municipal and regional roads |
| DMX-50 | 60–90 TPH | Medium highway projects |
| DMX-60 | 90–120 TPH | Large road and airport projects |
| DMX-65 | 120–160 TPH | High-volume infrastructure projects |
How Does an Asphalt Drum Mix Plant Work?
The plant produces hot mix asphalt through a continuous process:
- Aggregate feeding: Different aggregate sizes are loaded into separate cold feed bins.
- Accurate proportioning: Variable-speed drives regulate each aggregate according to the selected mix design.
- Screening: A vibratory scalping screen removes oversized material before it enters the drum.
- Aggregate transfer: The charging conveyor carries the measured aggregate into the dryer and mixing drum.
- Drying and heating: A pressure-jet burner removes moisture and heats the aggregate to the required temperature.
- Bitumen addition: Metered bitumen and required mineral filler are introduced into the mixing zone.
- Continuous mixing: Specially designed drum flights promote uniform heating and thorough blending.
- Dust management: The selected pollution-control unit captures dust generated during production.
- Final discharge: The load-out conveyor transfers the finished asphalt into trucks or an optional storage system.

Installation Process of Asphalt Drum Mix Plant
A planned installation helps the plant achieve safe, stable and efficient production.
- Project assessment: Determine the required plant capacity, asphalt mix, available area, fuel, power supply and expected aggregate moisture.
- Site selection: Choose firm, well-drained land with access for aggregate loaders, bitumen vehicles and asphalt-carrying trucks.
- Layout planning: Position the cold bins, drum, tanks, pollution-control equipment, control cabin and loading area for efficient material flow.
- Civil foundation: Construct foundations according to approved plant drawings, equipment loads and local ground conditions.
- Mechanical erection: Install the feed bins, conveyors, dryer drum, burner, tanks, ducting and load-out system.
- Electrical connection: Connect motors, sensors, control panels, safety devices and the project’s power source.
- Fuel and bitumen setup: Install fuel lines, insulated bitumen piping, pumps and temperature-control equipment.
- Pollution-control installation: Fit the selected dust collector, scrubber or baghouse arrangement according to project requirements.
- Calibration: Calibrate aggregate feeders, weighing systems, bitumen metering and temperature controls.
- Trial production: Conduct dry and loaded trial runs before beginning commercial asphalt production.
- Operator training: Train the operating team in startup, shutdown, safety, calibration and preventive maintenance procedures.
