Astec’s Voyager 140 plant is designed for high mobility

A key development for Astec is the introduction of a new mobile asphalt plant. Called the Voyager 140, this plant is designed to be quick to assemble and commission onsite as well as being equally quick to disassemble for transport. The firm says that the plant can produce up to 140tonnes/hour of asphalt, with a sophisticated control system that allows the user to switch between delivering base, binder and wearing course mixes. An important feature of the plant is that it can also handle up to feed material containing up to 50% recycled asphalt pavement (RAP).
