Atlas mobile hot asphalt mixing plant has many features and benefits. We manufacture the same in two types: batch type or as drum (continuous) type. Mobile asphalt mixers with capacity 40 to 60 tph or say 80-160 tph are very well in demand. The smaller models are in good demand in projects that involve production of hot mix asphalt in small quantities. The bigger models like 80 t/h, 120 tph and 160 t/h offer mobility and reliability to customers looking for slightly higher output.
If you go with a portable design then you can have unlimited options to work at different sites. We still need to take care of a few basic points before buying an asphalt plant that is mobile. If you want to buy one make sure you do your research properly and have your requirements well laid out before venturing out in the market.
There are many manufacturers of the same but you need to sit with them and understand the design concept. Also make sure the equipment offered is easy to use and maintain. The operation should be economical otherwise the whole purpose will not be solved. Technical terms and commercial terms should be discussed and mentioned on paper before coming to a conclusion. Sometimes a semi-mobile version can be best suitable for your requirement – so one can consider the same while selecting.
