Kenco Asphalt Drum/Dryer Flights

Worn flights inside a drum or dryer cause the veiling profile to deteriorate. When the veil is sub-optimal, aggregate material may not be properly dried, resulting in compromised mix quality. Improper aggregate drying will require the plant operator to slow down plant output and/or increase fuel consumption, both costly options.
