Asphalt
Asphalt millings and broken asphalt need sizing for reuse. FlipScreen screens asphalt rubble and profilings to produce reusable material on site.
Processing asphalt at the work site
Asphalt millings and broken asphalt need sizing for reuse. FlipScreen screens asphalt rubble and profilings to produce reusable material on site.
Begin by identifying the fraction of asphalt you want to recover and where each output will go. A compatible FlipScreen attachment combines collection and size separation in the carrier’s working cycle, allowing the operator to place screened material and retained oversize into separate, planned areas.
Choosing a screen for asphalt
The selected mesh aperture determines which material passes through and which is retained. Match the screen and bucket configuration to the feed characteristics, the carrier’s capacity and the project requirements. A material trial is a practical way to assess the result before committing to a production workflow.
Use a representative sample of asphalt to assess moisture, material shape and the proportion of oversized material. Choose the mesh to support the next processing stage, and inspect each output stream before reuse or sale. Size separation alone does not confirm purity, composition or compliance with a product specification.
Plan your asphalt screening setup
Provide the FlipScreen team with your carrier make and model, hydraulic specifications, expected feed size and the result you need from asphalt. Include the material’s condition and any site restrictions so a suitable attachment and screen configuration can be assessed. Plan stockpile positions and material movements before work begins to avoid mixing the separated fractions again.
Asphalt: screening advantages
How it works: Screen asphalt millings and rubble to remove oversize and contaminants.
The result: A consistent product for road base, hardstands and tracks.
Interchangeable screens: Choose screens to suit your reuse specification. Screens change over quickly, so one bucket can make several products.
Better than the alternatives: Stationary screens mean trucking millings to a yard. FlipScreen screens them on the job.
Fully portable: FlipScreen goes wherever your excavator goes, so you can screen asphalt at the dig site with no plant to mobilise, set up or feed.
Less double handling: Dig, screen and load in one cycle. Screen asphalt straight into a truck, stockpile or excavation without rehandling.
Built to suit your machine: The Smart Valve system balances pressure and flow to match your excavator's hydraulics, giving smooth, controlled screening from the first bucket.
The payoff: Reduces material costs and keeps asphalt out of landfill.
