QuickBatch asphalt mixing plant

Transport-optimised for international assignments

The new QuickBatch batch asphalt mixing plant from Ammann combines Ammann’s tried-and-tested mixing and plant technology in use throughout the world with international operating requirements. The Quick-Batch has been developed and designed on the basis of the container principle, so transport and set-up costs are substantially reduced without compromising performance, quality or flexibility. Performance-optimised core components from Ammann guarantee the plant’s high output in conjunction with substantially reduced dimensions and consistently high asphalt mix quality. All the dryer/filter units are designed as 40’ containers, and all the mixing tower modules come in the form of 20’ containers. Likewise, all the extras and add-on components, such as the cold feed and the control cab, have standard container dimensions of 40’ or 20’, respectively. The QuickBatch is available in two output classes: 140 and 180 t/h.

The QuickBatch offers all the advantages of a stationary mixing plant, but is specially designed for international operation involving frequent moves for deployment at different locations. Nowadays, waterborne and overland transportation infrastructure is geared towards container transport. Containers cost less to transport and the means of transporting them are more easily available – factors that can generate a substantial competitive edge, especially if a plant is repeatedly relocated. The individual plant components are placed in containers module by module. All the electrical and mechanical interfaces are pluggable to considerably reduce the time and cost of installation. The QuickBatch offers all the functions and options of conventional plants – for example, it can also be equipped with Ammann’s full range of popular recycling solutions.
