Asphalt Drum Mixers Inc. (ADM), Huntertown, Ind., is offering four models of portable and stationary recycling systems to improve the cost-efficiency of asphalt plants.
According to the company, its recycling systems allow plants to use milled material in hot mix asphalt (HMA). Since recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) is cheaper than virgin aggregate, ADM says the result is a less expensive finished product that maintains the quality of a pure virgin aggregate mix.
ADM’s recycle bins feature a 15-ton capacity and are continuously welded at the seams. The bins contain angle irons and midsection stiffeners for reinforcement; and sloped sidewalls to prevent material from plugging or bridging, according to the company. A tapered discharge opening leads to the direct-drive belt feeder with a 5-horsepower motor, multi-ply belt, self-cleaning tail pulley and adjustable skirt boards.
