ACM-4: Safe, Compact & Efficient Bitumen Decanting for Small-Scale Projects
Key Features & Benefits
Engineered for Safe and Reliable Performance
Indirect Heating Technology
Three-pass thermic-oil circulation melts bitumen drums uniformly, eliminating direct-flame contact and preventing material ageing or oxidation.
Hydraulic Drum Loading System
Powered lifters allow single-operator loading/unloading of 27 drums per batch, ensuring smooth operation and improved safety.
Compact, Site-Ready Design
Skid-mounted structure requires minimal foundation and enables easy relocation between project sites.
Smart Integration & Low Maintenance
Compatible with existing asphalt or binder plants; corrosion-resistant coils and thermic-oil system ensure longer lifecycle and lower service frequency.
Why Choose ACM-4
The ACM-4 is the most compact decanter, engineered for contractors who need reliable 4 TPH melting without heavy foundations or complex installation.
Built for Smaller Batches
ACM-4 is optimized for compact operations where frequent drum melting is required but space and logistics are limited. It provides continuous 4 TPH output without compromising on heating precision or safety.
Consistent Heating Performance
The thermic-oil system maintains steady heat across all 27 drums. By avoiding direct flame, ACM-4 preserves bitumen viscosity and ensures consistent quality across every batch.
Fuel-Efficient Operation
Insulated panels reduce heat loss, cutting fuel consumption by up to 20%. Diesel, LDO, or gas options give operators flexibility to match local fuel availability.
Safe & User-Friendly Handling
Hydraulic loading minimizes manual lifting and drum rotation hazards. Auto-level control and pressure-relief valves provide added protection for operators and equipment.
Global Customization
Units can be customized with optional transfer pumps, extended tanks, or automatic controls; installation, training, and spare-part support available in 40+ countries.
