Product Gallery: Ammann America Launches High-Capacity Counterflow Drum Mix Plant for Enhanced Asphalt Production

Ammann America, Orlando, announced earlier in 2024, its newest counterflow drum mix plant specifically designed for high production and high-capacity recycling technology. Available in stationary, relocatable and portable configurations ranging from 300-600 tons per hour.

The Alpine series is designed to enable HMA producers to maximize high total production and amount of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) content without sacrificing mix quality using Ammann’s controls and technologies. The Alpine series control system is intuitive and allows tracking and analyzing plant operating data in real time to provide real opportunities to gain further efficiencies.

The OEM lists the following benefits of the new plant:

• Single drum, multi-zone drying and mixing system with VFD
• Modular and scalable designed components
• High RAP capabilities up to 60%
• Warm asphalt capability with the proven Amman foam system
• Easy customization of plant arrangements
• Easy retrofit to existing facilities
• Extreme wear packages for extended operating life
• 24/7 local support with a hands-on project management team

Ammann’s HMA storage silos have capacities ranging up to 300 tons with extended mix storage options available. Silos are engineered with expansion in mind. The modular silo batcher arrangement is expandable for retrofitting and matching silo deck heights.

Ammann’s aggregate feed systems include troughing feed belts to eliminate spills and large bin openings for greater capacity. The reverse-air baghouse system is the newest version of a broad range of existing Ammann dust control products.
