“Stationary Asphalt Batch Mix Plant for Road Construction in Myanmar”

Q: What fuel does the burner run on?

The burner is fully automatic and modulating, and runs on diesel or LDO (light diesel oil). It maintains the set temperature inside the dryer drum.

Q: How does the plant handle dust?

A pre-separator traps larger dust particles before they reach the bag filter and can feed that dust into the bottom of the hot aggregate elevator. The reverse air flow bag filter has three cleaning rotors at the top for efficient cleaning.

Q: What was supplied in this case study?

A stationary asphalt batch mix plant with a modulating diesel/LDO burner, insulated chain-driven drying and mixing unit, customised vibrating screen, four hot bins, aggregate weighing with a filler weigh hopper, a twin-shaft mixer, a pre-separator, a reverse air flow bag filter and a touch-screen control panel.

Atlas Technologies supplied a stationary asphalt batch mix plant to Myanmar, built on a modular, skid-mounted structure that ships in standard and open-top containers and goes up fast on site.

The Challenge

What it takes to get a full batch plant to Myanmar and running:

A Full Plant, No Flat Racks

A complete batch plant has to travel overseas without depending on flat-rack containers, which cost more and are harder to book.

Every Day of Assembly Is a Day Without Asphalt

Loose components mean longer erection on site and a later start to production.

Road-Spec Mix, Every Single Batch

Consistent hot mix needs steady drying temperature, accurate aggregate weighing and effective dust handling.

The Engineering Solution

Atlas Technologies supplied a stationary asphalt batch mix plant to Myanmar. The range covers 80 and 120 TPH models, with 160 TPH the largest built, all on a modular structure for fast erection and commissioning.

Plant & Equipment Supplied

A stationary asphalt batch mix plant with a fully automatic modulating burner (diesel or LDO), a chain-driven drying and mixing unit insulated with glass wool, a customised spring-mounted vibrating screen, four hot bins, an aggregate weighing system with a filler weigh hopper, a twin-shaft mixer, a pre-separator, a reverse air flow bag filter and a touch-screen control panel.

Packed to Ship, Built to Go Up Fast

The containerised design ships in standard and open-top containers, with no flat racks needed. Every unit except the bitumen tank and fuel tank comes on skid plates, reducing installation time on site.

Heat, Weigh, Mix: Precision at Every Stage

The modulating burner holds the set temperature inside the dryer drum, and the drum flights heat aggregates evenly. Aggregates are weighed before they enter the mixer, and each mixer shaft has its own planetary speed reducer and motor for better torque distribution. The pre-separator traps larger dust particles before the bag filter and can feed them back to the hot aggregate elevator. The reverse air flow bag filter uses three cleaning rotors for efficient cleaning.

The Victory

Project Outcomes

Full batch plant shipped in standard and open-top containers, with no flat racks

Skid-mounted units and modular structure for fast erection and commissioning

Modulating burner holds the set drum temperature, and aggregates are weighed before mixing

Two-stage dust handling with pre-separator and reverse air flow bag filter

Same asphalt batch mix plant design also installed in Nigeria, the Philippines and Bangladesh

Frequently asked questions.

Can an asphalt batch mix plant be shipped in standard containers?

Yes. The Atlas stationary asphalt batch mix plant has a containerised design that ships in standard and open-top containers, so flat-rack containers are not needed. All units except the bitumen tank and fuel tank come on skid plates.
