Macroad - Model ALT Series -Asphalt Drum Mix Plant
The asphalt drum mix plant is a specialized type of asphalt production equipment used for efficiently producing asphalt mixtures under specified temperature ranges from 150°C to 220°C. The basic principle of a drum mix asphalt plant involves the simultaneous mixing of aggregate materials and asphalt in a continuous process. Therefore, it is also named after a continuous asphalt mix plant. The plant consists of a rotating drum, often referred to as a drum mixer, where the materials are heated and mixed , which has simplified the working process. It is suitable for projects that have continuous asphalt demands, like highways, roads, airports, parking lots, etc. Check applications of the drum mix plant below.

Temperature of Asphalt in Different Fields of Application
The temperature of asphalt in different application areas will be different, the following are some common application areas and the corresponding asphalt use temperature range:
- Road paving: In road construction, the asphalt mixture is used to pave road surfaces. Generally speaking, the temperature range of asphalt mixture during construction is usually between 120°C and 165°C.
- Bitumen roof waterproofing: In the construction industry, bitumen is commonly used as a roofing waterproofing material. Thermoplastic asphalt (SBS or APP modified asphalt) usually needs to be heated to a temperature between 180°C and 220°C.
- Asphalt Concrete Repair: During pavement repair and patching, asphalt concrete is often used to fill damaged areas. The temperature for patching asphalt concrete is usually between 120°C and 150°C.
