HBR Units

HOTMIX Anytime Anyplace! The HDE Asphalt Hotbox Reclaimer efficiently maintains asphalt temperature, offering a dual functionality of keeping virgin asphalt hot and re-heating cold material to workable temperatures. This versatile system is a year-round solution, whether sourcing material from local asphalt plants or recycling leftover asphalt to create hot patching material, even in the depths of winter. Our reclaimers will efficiently re-heat leftover material eliminating disposal needs and significantly reduces the amount of cold patch material required for repairs. The process typically takes 8-12 hours, varying with ambient temperatures and the amount of asphalt being heated. This is easily achieved with advanced features to enhance operational flexibility and convenience. These units allow you to keep the reclaimer running while traveling down the road, eliminating the need to shut it down during transport, and allows for unsupervised overnight operation when placed outdoors. Utilizing a digital temperature controller, the system ensures safe heating, automatically turning off heaters at a preset temperature (e.g., 300 °F) to prevent asphalt burning.
