Macroad - Cold Mix Asphalt Plant
The cold mix asphalt plant refers to the asphalt mixture blended by unheated aggregate, mineral filler and dilute asphalt. The cold asphalt mixture is a high-tech road repair material, which can be used all day long. It is suitable for repairing different types of road surfaces under any environment, such as asphalt concrete road, parking lot, airport runway and bridges expansion joint.
In order to cover the wide range of client requirements, our company also launches cold mix asphalt plant for sale. The perfect knowledge of cold asphalt mixing makes it possible to design and produce the cold asphalt mixing equipment. The cold mix asphalt produced by us is durable and flexible, which can be self-heal even under pressure from low temperature. The cold mix asphalt is an ideal choice for non-engineered roads. Therefore, the cold mix asphalt plant is well-received by customers.
Cold Mix Asphalt VS Hot Mix Asphalt
The cold mix asphalt is a mixture of cold aggregate, filler and emulsion asphalt. The distinguished difference between cold mix asphalt and hot mix asphalt is the temperature. The cold mix asphalt blend aggregate, filler and emulsion asphalt at lower temperature of -20?~50?, while the hot mix asphalt mixture is mixed at high temperature of 138?~160?. Dense graded cold mix asphalt has lower permeability and high deformation resistance. The semi dense cold asphalt mixture has good adhesion.
- The special design of the cold mix asphalt plant is optimum for changeable climates, which is convenient to construct without weather limitation.
- It has movable characteristic, the mobile cold mix asphalt plant with compact structure and layout is convenient for construction sites converting.
- The whole processes can realize zero emission. There aren’t dust and black smoke during production and use. The finished products are insoluble in water, which is environmentally friendly. Besides, there are no required operating permits from Environmental Protection Agency.
- Set up on the small construction sites, the cold mix asphalt can produce asphalt mixture manually, which is simple and convenient for small scale job. But above all, it can reduce customers’ investment.
- In the processes, the cold mix asphalt plant eliminates the needs to dry and heat aggregate, which can simplify the operating processes. It is economical for pavement repairing.
- The mixing time and strength can be controlled and adjusted according to special construction demands.
- Compared with hot mix plant, the cold asphalt emulsion is much safer. Because that there is no need of heated asphalt.
- The cold mix asphalt plant has options to mix on site or off site, and then the mixture is transported to location.
- The wide choice of processes can satisfy various pavement needs, such as repairing, restoring and base courses.
- The cold mix asphalt with durability can extend the roads life.
- The adoption of advanced control system can improve automation of equipment.
- The produced cold mix asphalt mixture has high quality, strong anti-aging and bond performance. The repaired potholes needn’t be restored repeatedly.
