Our head office and manufacturing unit are based in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India.
GAJJAR Equipments Private Limited specializes in manufacturing high-performance asphalt drum mix plants that ensure efficient and continuous asphalt production for projects of any scale.
Types of Asphalt Plants
Asphalt plants come in two primary configurations:
Drum Mix Plants – Operate continuously, making them ideal for large-scale, time-sensitive projects.
Batch Mix Plants – Produce asphalt in batches, offering flexibility in mix design.
This article will focus primarily on drum mix plants, which are popular for their efficiency, consistency, and cost-effectiveness.
The Asphalt Production Process in a Drum Mix Plant
Aggregate Feeding via Cold Feed Bins
Aggregates, such as sand, gravel, and crushed stones, are stored in cold feed bins. These bins feature adjustable gates and feeders to control the flow of materials onto conveyor belts, ensuring precise and consistent proportioning.
Drying and Heating in the Rotating Drum
A fuel-efficient burner dries and heats the aggregates as they are fed into a rotating drum.
This stage removes moisture from the aggregates and prepares them for the mixing process.
Bitumen and Filler Addition
Once the aggregates are properly heated, the drum adds bitumen (the binder) and mineral fillers. These materials blend together to create a smooth and homogeneous hot mix asphalt.
Continuous Mixing and Discharge
The plant continuously stirs the mixture to maintain uniform consistency. Once the asphalt is ready, it discharges directly into tipper trucks or storage silos for transportation to the paving site.
