Mobile Asphalt Mixing Plant Site

Equipment management is very important among mobile asphalt plant management.

The main reason is any abnormal behavior will probably interrupt the whole production

line and affect the construction project. There are three major things to be attended to:

The production scheduling includes schedule on raw materials, shifts and transport team, and personnel

coordination and communication. Generally each shift should have one scheduler

to plan the material supply based on construction schedule, a transport team

to deliver adequate asphalt for construction requirement, and two mixing

towers for shift and batch arrangement according to the asphalt mix

aggregates.

Raw materials like bitumen, aggregate and gravel, and diesel etc should be co-controlled by materialists

and labratory personnel. The bitumen performance indicators such as softening point, penetration, and

ducticity should be sampling tested before feeding. The aggregate and

labratory personnel. The bitumen performance indicators like

softening point, penetration, and ducticity should be sampling

tested before feeding. The aggregate should go through

inspection like specification, sheet content and weathering

condition and sample text to confirm its mud content and

crushing value. Finished asphalt will be monitored by people

on shift and lab personnel. The shift team should strictly follow

the grading requirement and conduct appearance inspection

and temperature detection, and lab personnel should sample

finished product for test.

In order to guarantee the safety and security of machinery and personnel, effective measures must be

taken.
