Granular material is fed to a mixing drum, and a plurality of controllable nozzles are aligned with the interior of the mixing drum for selectively introducing water into the mixing drum. A control circuit is responsive to at least one of the power input and the driving torque of the drive means for the mixing drum, to control a main control valve which controls the total quantity of water per unit time delivered into the interior of the mixing drum. The control circuit may also be responsive to the temperature of the granular material fed to the mixing drum for further control of the main control valve. A pressure control device is provided between the main control valve and the nozzles to maintain the water pressure between predetermined boundary values so that water is delivered to said drum with an approximately constant droplet size. |
