Q
How long does it take to complete the barrel turning and feeding process?
The entire barrel turning and feeding process is completed within 30 seconds for one single barrel, making the operation highly efficient and reducing manual labor intensity significantly.
Q
How is the bitumen barrel loaded onto the barrel turning device?
A forklift is used to place the barrel onto the barrel turning device. The two-way hydraulic cylinder then takes over — its downward movement turns the barrel upside down, while the upward movement pushes it into the heating chamber.
Q
What heating method is used for the barrel heating chamber?
The outer wall of the main body is heated by thermal oil through pipe radiation. Additionally, hot air circulation further supports the heating process to ensure thorough and even heat distribution.
Q
How does the internal circulation function of the pump set help the process?
The pump set's internal circulation function accelerates the bitumen melting speed by continuously circulating the heated material. Combined with the fan-driven hot air, this strengthens the heat transfer coefficient and improves overall efficiency.
Q
Does the system support both manual and automatic operation?
Yes. The electrical operating system is designed to support both manual and automatic modes, offering flexible operation options to suit different working conditions and operator preferences.
Q
What is the advantage of the flue pipeline direct heating design?
The direct heating of the flue pipeline enables high-efficiency heat exchange by minimizing energy loss between the heat source and the material, resulting in faster and more uniform barrel heating.
