“Thanks to AIMIX’s 80tph asphalt plant, our bridge project finally got back on track. The asphalt quality and production speed exceeded our expectations.” the project manager said excitedly. This is the feedback we received from the project team at Gyaing Zathapyin and Atran Bridges in Myanmar, two major milestones along the East-West Economic Corridor. These projects faced serious challenges early on due to a lack of suitable asphalt production equipment locally. Let’s explore how we stepped in and delivered a solution that not only met but exceeded expectations.
The client initially struggled because local suppliers could not meet their stringent requirements for modified asphalt. Temperature control had to be precise, and the material proportions had to stay consistent batch after batch. Without a high-performance asphalt plant, the project risked halting altogether. After hearing the client’s concerns, our team quickly scheduled a face-to-face technical consultation.
We analyzed their workflow, material requirements, and environmental conditions. The goal was clear: design a plant that could deliver reliable, high-quality asphalt production, even under tight deadlines and demanding specifications.
The Gyaing Zathapyin and Atran Bridges project highlighted several critical needs:
These requirements demanded a machine with both advanced technology and robust durability. Our solution needed to deliver, not just on paper, but in the demanding reality of bridge construction under Southeast Asian conditions. Time was critical, and the solution had to be ready fast.
After careful planning, our expert team delivered the ALQ-80 model: an 80TPH stationary asphalt batch plant featuring cutting-edge temperature control technology. The asphalt plant integrates German Siemens PLC systems with infrared monitoring, ensuring the exact temperature for modified asphalt throughout production.
Here’s how why the ALQ-80 Stationary Asphalt Batch Plant was chosen and how it was directly addressed the project’s critical issues:
Modified asphalt must stay within a narrow temperature range to ensure durability on heavily trafficked bridges. ALQ-80’s Siemens PLC with infrared temperature monitoring maintained exact heat levels, giving the engineers confidence.
Any stoppage meant lost time and money. The ALQ-80’s automated feeding, mixing, and discharge system kept asphalt flowing continuously. Predictive maintenance alerts helped the team prevent unexpected breakdowns before they happened.
Operators had varying experience. ALQ-80’s flexible control modes—touch screen, computer, or manual buttons—allowed everyone to operate confidently, reducing stress and human error.
Bridges demand uniform asphalt. The asphalt plant’s precise weighing system ensured aggregate errors stayed within ±0.5% and asphalt/powder within ±0.25%, meaning each batch matched the last, with no guesswork.
Enlarged cold aggregate bins meant operators didn’t have to stop production waiting for materials. Adjustable dust pipes allowed quick installation even in tight spaces, saving precious setup time.
Heavy-duty components like reinforced mixing blades and heated bins could handle millions of tons of asphalt without failure. This reliability meant the team could focus on the bridge, not the equipment.

| Vibrating Screen (Layer) | 4 layers |
| Mixer Capacity | 1000kg |
| Cycle Time | 45s |
| Filter Area | 420m² |
| Asphalt Temperature | 140-180 ℃ |
| Total Power | 300kw |
For the bridge project team, choosing the right asphalt plant was only half the battle. The next big concern was simple but critical: how fast could the plant be installed and start producing asphalt? Delays in installation would directly affect the construction schedule. That is why we sent a professional installation team to the site and worked closely with the client’s local engineers from day one.
Instead of leaving the client to handle installation alone, AIMIX provided full technical guidance throughout the process:
Thanks to this structured approach, the ALQ-80 asphalt batch plant moved from delivery to stable production in a short time. The project team avoided long learning curves and costly mistakes, allowing bridge construction to resume without further delay.
With the ALQ-80 in operation, the bridge project quickly regained its schedule. The asphalt plant’s automation and precision minimized downtime, while predictive maintenance reduced unexpected failures. The client reported consistent asphalt quality, even in high-traffic areas, which improved the long-term durability of the bridge.
Production efficiency increased significantly. Enlarged cold aggregate bins and automated feeding meant fewer interruptions and faster completion of batches. The asphalt mixing plant’s flexible operation modes allowed the team to optimize workflow without retraining staff.
For many contractors, seeing is believing. Photos show the equipment, but video shows performance, workflow, and real production capacity. That is why the client requested full video documentation once the plant started running. The footage captures the complete production process—from cold aggregate feeding and drying, to precise mixing and finished asphalt discharge. It also shows how smoothly operators manage the plant using the intelligent control system.
These videos not only helped the client verify plant performance, but also became useful references for training new operators and planning future projects. They provide real proof that ALQ-80 hot mix plant performs reliably in real construction environments, not just in factory tests.
