Components of Asphalt Drum Type Continuous Portable Plants - International Market: |
| Thermodrum Unit : |
The Drying and Mixing unit of the asphalt plant demands complex flight design and heat transfer technology. With continuous R&D and incorporation of the latest design up-gradations; Apollo thermodrum is miles ahead of competition. The Apollo thermodrum unit follows a triple heat transfer system by conduction, convection & radiation technologies ensuring transfer of heat to the aggregates, translating into higher productivity and lower fuel consumption. The unique flight design ensures total heat transfer, a thorough mixing & coating, lower emissions and prevention of bitumen oxidation.
