especially designed and manufactured for
medium scaled asphalt production facilities with
80 ton / hour asphalt production capacity.
URBAN series asphalt plants are suitable for a
wide range of asphalt production at minimum
operating costs.
URBAN series is environmentally friendly and
due to its modular structure is easy to transport,
assemble and maintain.
Heavy-duty type
Minimum energy consumption
Low operating costs
High production efficiency
Easy maintenance and spare parts
Quality and long-life components
User friendly, high technology control systems
Granular, liquid and packaged additive system.

5. Environmentally friendly and due
to its modular structure is easy
to transport, assemble and
maintain.
80 tons / hour
Designed to fit in any budget
and anywhere.

6. Drying Unit
Drying Unit
The PANAMIX DRYER was designed to have a long
mixing chamber that would provide extraordinarily long
mixing times.
When combined with the sequential mixing process,
these long mixing times ensure uniform and consistent
incorporation of all aggregates, materials, and additives.
Even if you are dealing with high raw-material variance
or heavily modified or sticky mixes, the PANAMIX design
helps you produce homogenous, strong mixes.

7. panamix GEOFLAME
PANAMIX GEOFLAME
The GEOFLAME is capable of burning a wide range
of available fuel oils including heavy oils and
waste oils.
The unique ‘Swirl Generator ‘oil nozzle efficiently
atomizes even the most difficult heavy oil and
waste oil.
Low pressure oil and blower air are mixed in the
nozzle and create a vaporized fuel mist.
A single adjustment lever changes
the angle of the spin vanes in the
secondary air passage. The flame
is easily adaptable from a short bushy
flame to a long, narrow pencil flame.
• N o ignition tile
• N o combustion chamber required
• Convenient flame shaping
• Wide turndown

8. Control System
SYSTEM BLENDING CONTROLS
• 5 virgin aggregate.
• Aggregate INDIVIDUAL WEIGHING.
• 1 recycle bin over 1 recycle belt scale
• 1 mineral filler.
• 1 additive pump
• 1 asphalt pump.
• Calibration for all scales, pumps and feeders:
• Unlimited mix design stored on hard disk drive
PANAMIX brings you the power and the flexibility of a PC
based control system with the Windows® operating system.
The SYSTEM eliminates traditional control consoles and
allows you to run and monitor process functions from a
standard PC.
The System controls and monitors several essential facility
functions including proportional control of aggregate feeders
and the blending of asphalt and additives.
MANUAL OVERRIDE IN CASE OF MALFUNCTION
• The system can be run,
manually or automatically,
which makes it possible to
operate even if the PLC fails.
ADDITION AL FEATURES
• Monitoring software in English, Spanish and Portuguese;
• System for automatically diagnosing failures via PLC.
• Backup of the hard drive on CD-ROM;
• Full control of the plant's operation via monitoring software;
• Complete control of the process and variables;
• Generates a wide variety of reports:
- Daily, weekly, period, production
- Truck loads (issues tickets)

9. Environmental Control
PANAMIX BAG FILTERS has an ample filtering area, equipped
with Nomex bags, which ensures the minimization of
recirculation and high-speed points.
In this way, the plant is able to ensure efficiency rates greater
than 99.9%, with particulate emissions of less than 50 mg/Nm3
,
in full compliance with the strictest environmental legislation
The use of Nomex filters makes it possible to work with a much wider range
of temperatures, between 110° C and 210° C, without reducing the filtration
elements' working life.
The bag filters' safety system automatically and simultaneously blocks the
burner if the temperature of the filters becomes too high.
SAFETY SYSTEM
The bag filters' safety system
automatically and
simultaneously blocks the
burner if the temperature of the
filters becomes too high.

10. panamix Storage System
STORAGE TANKS
PANAMIX STORAGE Tanks are equipped with heating
coils for hot fluid circulation.
Standard skin is zincalume or other color finishes are
optional.. An 18-inch wide area along the top of the tank is
reinforced to allow workers to walk on it without damaging
the skin. End wall skins are made of steel for extra
ruggedness.
STORAGE CAPACITIES:
• Asphalt: 35,000 liters
• Plant Fuel: 35.000 liters
PANAMIX TANKS are lined with glass wool and
zincalume, which provides a high-capacity thermal
conservation.
Heat is generated by a thermal fluid heater that can use
Diesel, LPG, or natural gas.
They can come with internal material agitators (optional.
The circulation pump and their piping are jacketed for
interconnection with the asphalt plant.
They are normally used to heat and
store liquid AC, but can be used for
other materials, such as heavy fuel oil

11. THE HEATER has a highly efficient helical coil. Coils are
built to ASME standards. Heaters include insulated heat
chamber, centrifugal pump and expansion tank. A low-
maintenance burner and controls are also included.
HEATING SYSTEM The asphalt and fuel storage tank has a
coil in it through which the heated thermal oil flows forming a
heat transfer system.
BURNER
The burner is FULL AUTOMATIC operation monoblock
construction containing all the elements necessary for its
operation.
The diesel or gas burner was designed to comply with EC’s
requirements, and its control is centered on its operation
programmer that controls all the equipment’s functions
including the system’s pre-ventilation in order to eliminate
residual gases, the release of fuel to the system, lighting the
flame of the burner’s nozzle,
and at the end the verification of the execution of the
commands given.

12. No matter what, definitely we can heat it.
