Asphalt and Bitumen Equipment

Asphalt and bitumen equipment refers to a wide range of machineries used in applying asphalt and bitumen materials on surfaces, such as roads and parking lot pavements. Asphalt and bitumen equipment are industrial-grade machineries that can be used in various construction and repair projects. Common types of asphalt and bitumen equipment include the asphalt-bitumen sprayer or paver, grader and roller. The asphalt-bitumen paver is usually fed by a separate dump truck that supplies the solid aggregates.

An asphalt paver is basically a pressurised sprayer that equally distributes molten asphalt and bitumen on road surfaces. It is powered by a pump and has a tank and mixer that is constantly heated at specific temperature to maintain the fluid molten state of the asphalt and bitumen.

The roller is used to press and level the asphalt mix, resulting in smooth and even pavement. Although the asphalt and bitumen paver evenly distributes the mixture, it does not have the capacity to compact the mixture. After rolling, the grader is used to trim the crushed stone and bitumen mixture. Other types of heavy engineering equipment, such as a crane, loader, crusher and mixer are used to aid the asphalt and bitumen equipment.
