POWERASPHALT / PLANT COMPONENTS
Asphalt Plant Aggregate Dryer
Prepare aggregate through controlled heat transfer.
The aggregate dryer removes the moisture from the metered material and ensures that it reaches the required temperature for hot mixture production. The rotating drum, internal flights, burner and drive group work together. Dryer selection depends not only on tonnage but also on aggregate moisture, fuel and target outlet temperature.
PROJECT-SPECIFIC EQUIPMENT FOR YOUR PRODUCTION LINE
PRODUCTION FLOW
How it works in three steps.
The task of the unit, associated equipment and the route of the material.
Controlled feeding
The material coming from the cold aggregate line is taken into the drum. Feed continuity is balanced by burner and drum operating conditions.
Drying and heating
Internal flights distribute aggregate inside the drum; contact with the hot gas provides heat transfer.
Separation of aggregate and gas
The heated aggregate is transferred to the next production unit. Dusty process gas is directed to the filter system through the channel.
INSIDE THE EQUIPMENT
Main components and their functions.
The housing, drive and control components are assessed together with production and maintenance requirements.
Drum body and insulation
Stone wool and outer covering, which limits heat loss, are selected according to the scope of the equipment.
Replaceable internal flights
Bolted internal flights support material distribution and maintenance access. Their geometry is selected for the aggregate and process requirements.
Riding rings and support rollers
Rings and wheel groups that carry the drum load are sized according to alignment and working loads.
Geared drive assembly
It provides controlled rotation of the drum. Multiple drive and soft start options are evaluated according to the project.
Burner and combustion control
A burner suitable for liquid or gaseous fuel is selected with a temperature and combustion control system. Fuel equipment is clarified within the scope of the offer.
Gas duct and filter connection
Transfer of dryer exit gas to the filter; It is designed with suction, temperature monitoring and duct insulation.
TECHNICAL CONFIGURATION
Specify the right equipment for your plant.
It is based on your production target and selected configuration, rather than a standard number.
| Feature | Options / design considerations |
|---|---|
| APPLICATION | Design suitable for stationary and mobile asphalt plants |
| flow pattern | Parallel or counter current; according to process selection |
| temperature management | According to mixture specification and aggregate conditions |
| Drive and burner power | The project is designed according to the selected capacity, humidity and fuel. |
Selection and integration
In parallel flow, the material and gas move in the same direction, and in countercurrent, they move in opposite directions. Suitable solution; Plant type is determined by the production recipe and thermal balance. Burner power, drum size and motor powers are defined separately for each model; The production flow rate, aggregate moisture and outlet temperature of the facility are considered under the same design conditions.
OPERATION AND SERVICE
Maintenance access is part of the design.
Equipment tracking, automation connections and service planning are handled within the same production chain.
Inspection and preventive maintenance
Maintenance monitors internal flight wear, the contact between riding rings and support rollers, drum alignment, bearings and drive connections. The burner, temperature sensors and extraction duct are checked by authorised service personnel. Fuel consumption is assessed against aggregate moisture, throughput, temperature and maintenance condition.
Automation and technical support
Sensors, operating commands and safety interlocks are evaluated together with the existing control system. Maintenance and adjustments are made according to the equipment user manual and authorized service procedures. Get technical support →
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions about Asphalt Plant Aggregate Dryer.
Yes. When the amount of water that needs to be removed increases, the production flow rate that can be achieved with the same thermal power may change.
Fuel compatibility depends on the burner, fuel line and control equipment. The fuel to be used must be specified in the technical proposal.
Price; It is prepared according to the scope of capacity, body and drive features, heating or transport equipment, automation, transportation and assembly. You can request a technical offer by sharing your existing equipment and project information.
