In the hot asphalt concrete mixing plant system, the burner is the “thermal heart” that determines the efficiency of the drying drum, fuel consumption, and the stability of the entire production line.
TTM – a leading concrete mixing plant manufacturer in China – possesses self-researched, self-designed, and self-manufactured burner technology, creating a distinct difference compared to common equipment lines on the market.

Below are the outstanding advantages of the TTM burner, which have been verified in practice at many stations in Vietnam.

1. TTM Burner – Self-Designed Technology Integrated with the Drying Drum

The TTM burner unit is self-researched – self-designed – self-manufactured, and then fine-tuned to:

– Ensure the flame size matches precisely with the TTM drying drum size
– Optimize heat exchange and heating speed
– Increase stone drying efficiency, reduce fuel consumption
– Minimize vibration, operate stably even under high load

Especially, TTM uses an automatic digital control system, helping to adjust the fuel amount and flame in real-time.

The burner can utilize a variety of fuels:

– FO oil
– DO oil
– Natural gas NG/LNG or LPG

→ This allows the plant to be flexible according to fuel prices at each stage.

2. Integrated Fan & Oil Pump Directly on the Burner – Schneider Variable Frequency Drive Control

TTM integrates the entire fan and oil pump system directly on the burner body, controlled by Schneider variable frequency drives (France).

Benefits:

– The fuel-air ratio is adjusted extremely accurately
– Automatically optimizes according to the station load
– Digital display on the screen, easy to operate
– Significantly reduces fuel consumption
– Reduces noise and increases equipment lifespan

This is a significant advantage over many conventional burners that are mechanically adjusted and difficult to control accurately.

3. Two Independent Oil Pump Motors – Ensuring Uninterrupted Operation

To avoid the risk of stopping the station when the oil pump encounters issues, TTM is equipped with:

– 02 independent oil pump motors

In case one motor fails, the remaining motor ensures normal operation, helping:

– The station does not stop suddenly
– Reduce the risk of fire and explosion
– Increase reliability in 24/7 operation

4. Pressure Differential Technology – Extending Oil Pump Lifespan

The TTM burner applies the principle of pressure differential control, helping:

– The oil pump operates smoothly
– Provides stable fuel supply
– Reduces load on the system, especially during long operations
– Increases oil pump lifespan by 20–30%

5. Specialized Maintenance Sliding Rail – Fast, Safe, and Optimal

The burner is designed with a sliding rail that pulls out – pushes in right in front of the combustion port.

Advantages:

– Easy to inspect, clean, and maintain the burner
– Reduces station downtime
– Safer than fixed burner types
– Derived from the operational experience of hundreds of TTM stations worldwide

6. Verified Combustion Efficiency in Vietnam

The TTM burner has been verified at many stations, including a 160 tons/hour station in Binh Thuan:

– Actual fuel consumption measured: 4.94 kg FO/ton of asphalt
– Saving more than 10% compared to many Korean stations operating in Vietnam

If a plant produces 200,000 tons of asphalt per year, the amount of fuel saved can reach:

👉 Approximately 2 billion VND/year

This is one of the factors that lead many enterprises to choose TTM to reduce long-term operating costs.

TTM’s burner technology is not only strong in combustion efficiency but is also designed based on the philosophy:
Synchronized – Automatic – Fuel-saving – Durable operation

With a design synchronized with the drying drum, integrated variable frequency drives, dual motors, and maintenance sliding rails, the TTM burner is the optimal solution for hot asphalt plants that want to:

– Save fuel
– Reduce operating costs
– Operate stably 24/7
– Easy maintenance – high lifespan
