ACM-7: Safe, Reliable & High-Performance Bitumen Melting for Medium-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 protecting material properties throughout each 6 TPH cycle.
Hydraulic Drum Loading System
Robust hydraulic lifters handle up to 40 drums (≈ 8 tons per batch) with single-operator control, reducing manual labour and ensuring smoother handling under heavy workloads.
Compact and Modular Design
A skid-mounted framework enables quick site installation and relocation. Ideal for contractors managing multiple sites or operating in semi-remote regions.
Smart Integration & Low Maintenance
Compatible with existing asphalt and binder plants; corrosion-resistant heating coils, auto-temperature regulation, and easy-access panels ensure reduced servicing downtime and steady performance.
Why Choose ACM-7
The ACM-7 is a mid-range bitumen decanter designed for contractors who need reliable 6 TPH performance and faster drum processing without compromising fuel economy.
Built for Higher Throughput
With 6 TPH output, ACM-7 is engineered for medium-volume melting where consistency and pace matter. It maintains high flow efficiency across all 40 drums without increasing fuel or labour demand.
Uniform Heating Assurance
The indirect thermic-oil system maintains even temperature profiles across the chamber. Each drum reaches the same melt rate, ensuring homogenous bitumen quality for paving or mix plants.
Fuel Economy and Flexibility
ACM-7 uses diesel, LDO, or gas with optimized burner controls and dense insulation to minimise heat loss, thereby cutting operational fuel costs by up to 20% over open-flame systems.
Enhanced Safety & Automation
Hydraulic loading, auto-level control, and pressure-relief valves keep operators safe while maintaining system integrity under continuous load. (Optional PLC panel automation).
Global Support & Custom Options
Atlas supports commissioning, training, and after-sales in 40+ countries. ACM-7 units can be customised with extended storage tanks or transfer modules to fit diverse project scales.
