What is Drum Mix Plant ? Features of Asphalt Drum Mix Plant

An asphalt mixing plant can be categorised into 2 types. Both of them have their own features and advantages. There are two basic types of asphalt plants available in the market today. One is the drum type continuous plant and other is the batch type of asphalt plant.

The features and advantages of drum mix plant are different when compared to the batch mix plant. The end result / product produced by these two plants is the same. However, the difference lies in the quality of the product produced and also in the process by which the two types work.


A drum mix plant producing asphalt will do so in its different method. It will have its own advantages and features when compared with any other type. One of the top benefits will include its easy operation, maintenance and low initial cost of investment. A drum plant is always preferred for its ability to quickly produce hot mix asphalt in short period of time.

Plc And Microprocessor Control Panel - Atlas Industries

PLC Control Panel is a gigantic microprocessor. Controller Unit is designed for customized high-end automation. A PLC may contain many microprocessors. PLC is preferred over microprocessors in automation. Hence in our   asphalt and concrete plants,   we have the option of a PLC control panel. It allows us to have a high degree of accuracy and customization. PLC is a Programmable Logic Controller where a high degree of accuracy, reliability, customization, and precision is required. PLC Control Panel can take input from various sensors and give logical output.  Microprocessor Controller  is possible to view this data in a graphical manner through an HMI or a monitor. In a concrete or asphalt plant, we need to observe many readings/data. Combine the same to graphically represent the same on a screen. Even the basic functionality like increasing or decreasing any parameter will be easy. How does an Asphalt PLC Work? PLC or Programmable Logic Controller is a computer tha...

160 Tph Wet Mix Macadam Plant For Myanmar | Atlas Industries

Atlas has dispatched its 160 tph wet mix macadam plant for Myanmar. This is our second soil stabilization plant. The plant is equipped with components and wiring complete in all aspects. This will allow us to produce in quick time. The machine selected is a stationary type. Wet mix macadam plants usually mix different sizes of aggregates along with cement and water. This addition is done in the pug mill type mixing unit. Each material is weighed separately before it gets into the mixing zone. The percentage of cement added in the wet mix macadam plant is usually 3-5%. Wet Mix Plant Export Myanmar : WMM Plant capacity is rated at 160 TPH. There are some factors that will affect the same. The aggregate mean density should be 1.6 ton/m3. If soil is sticky then the production will drop by at least 20%. The reason is that as the soil gets sticky they render more load on the mixing blades. The mixing blades then give more load on the gear and motor. Hence to avoid excessive wear and tear or...

What are the main components of the asphalt mixing plant?

There are many components that work in unison to make this plant complete. The feeder bins, dryer drums, filters for environment protection, tower unit, control panel, etc. Each component is discussed in detail below. Cold aggregate feeders: Cold aggregate feeders are the starting point for any batch process of the plant. They will hold the cold and virgin aggregates in separate bins according to their sizes. Different aggregate sizes have to be in separate bins because they will be controlled by the frequency-controlled drives. Charging conveyor and vibrating screen: Vibrating screen here is a single deck primary scalping screen designed for the removal of oversized aggregates. As the aggregates pass through the screen it helps in separating the bigger particles from the rest. From below the screen, a conveyor runs straight to the drying drum. This conveyor takes the aggregates from below the vibrating screen and transfers the same to the drying drum. Burner and drying drum: This drum...
