Forward-Thinking Technology
The new Gencor G-Series is the latest innovation in small portable hot mix plants providing contractors with all the features of Gencor’s award winning Ultraplant® in a smaller compact highly mobile plant that can be erected and operational virtually anywhere. Available in 150 and 200 U.S. tons per hour of hot mix asphalt.
Built around the unique patented counterflow Ultradrum® technology, proven in 100’s of applications around the globe for producing high quality hot mix without degradation, cleanly, and efficiently. The Ultradrum® flight design concept provides for the highest efficiency heat exchange between the aggregates and the combustion system making it the most efficient drum mixer in the industry. Each flight section is designed for maximum wear life, low maintenance and results in even drum loading.
The isolated mixing section is located behind the burner so there is no chance of liquid asphalt coming in contact with the burner flame, thus no oxidation of the asphalt, no degradation of the mix, and no asphalt vapors entering the exhaust gas stream.
The Astraflame burner achieves complete, efficient combustion without the use of refractory heads or combustion chambers. As a result, more of the BTU heating value of the available fuel applied directly to the drying process.
For the paving contractor, we offer the Blaw-Knox highway-class pavers. With a rich heritage of producing the highest quality and most durable paving equipment in the industry for over 100 years. A continued focus on innovation drives product engineering with designs that improve performance while maintaining user-friendly, ergonomic comfort and reliability for the operator.
Blaw-Knox pavers are known for superior industry-leading mat quality, uniformity and smoothness on even the most challenging applications, and are available in a variety of 8 foot and 10 foot tracked or wheeled versions. Unique proprietary screed technology allows for high compaction levels that reduce roller time, resulting in a smooth, high-quality mat.
Backed by a world-class support network, Blaw-Knox is dedicated to the principle of satisfying its customers from all aspects by providing the highest quality products and support to the industry.
Sustainability with Asphalt
Gencor’s green products lead the industry in warm mix asphalt production and asphalt plant fuel savings. The Gencor Ultrafoam GX2™ warm mix system has a simple, robust and reliable method of injecting steam into the foaming process to produce warm mix asphalt.
The Vector™ burner control is a fully automatic digital control system that minimizes fuel usage and gas emissions while maximizing production capacity.
Gencor’s Ultraplant™ has taken top honors year after year for being the only hot mix plant with a positive volatile capture and recovery system that totally eliminates blue smoke and asphalt odors from the process and feeds them to the combustion process as fuel.
Blaw-Knox is always looking for ways to improve performance while reducing the environmental effects normally associated with operating heavy machinery. One significant example is our innovative power adaptive engine with a unique speed control system that significantly improves fuel efficiency, and the strain on the planet’s resources, by lowering engine rpm and reducing ambient noise pollution.
Through the use of our proprietary “Blaw-Kote” system, our pavers also utilize an environmentally friendly pre-treat system which aides in asphalt cleanup by eliminating the need to use diesel fuel as a release agent for stuck on asphalt materials from the paver.
