Ammann to show light compaction equipment and mixing plants at World of Asphalt

Ammann America's asphalt-mixing plant technology will be highlighted at World of Asphalt. Visitors to the Ammann booth can also learn more about the company's North American compaction equipment.

Models of the ABA UniBatch and ACP ContiHRT will be on display and Ammann representatives will be on hand to explain the technology.

The ACP ContiHRT, a continuous plant, separates the heating and mixing processes and yields higher quality asphalt than conventional methods. The system enables adjustment of mixing times, providing flexibility, and significantly reducing emissions. Plant operators can also modify recipes without stopping and starting, a significant cost-saver.

The ABA UniBatch, a batch plant, also utilizes Ammann's separate heating and mixing processes. It is among the lower-cost alternatives and is easy to operate and maintain. The plant is customizable and flexible and can be integrated into existing sites when needed.

Ammann's light compaction equipment includes rammers, vibratory plates, add-on compactors, and trench rollers.

Heavy equipment includes single-drum and tandem and pneumatic rollers. These machines provide efficiency through technology and an ability to direct more force toward the target and away from the machine. This minimizes the passes required to reach compaction goals.
