The article considers the issue of developing closed-loop automated process control systems for laying asphalt concrete coating. Closed-loop systems that provide feedback between the control and execution stages are a key element of modern automation of technological processes. Their use allows to improve the quality of asphalt concrete coating, optimize resource consumption and ensure compliance of finished products with regulatory requirements. The main result of the study is the development of a structural diagram of a closed-loop process control system, which is built on the principle of operational control and regulation of technological parameters in the process of laying asphalt mixture. This makes it possible to adapt the processes of compaction and heating of asphalt concrete to changing external factors. The influence of the main technological parameters on the coating quality has been determined, and methods for automated adjustment of the compaction intensity depending on temperature indicators have been proposed. The computer modeling of the real-time data collection module operation has made it possible to visualize the received signals for their further analysis and use. The modeling results confirmed the possibility of automating the technological process of laying asphalt concrete coating. The proposed system is capable of achieving a significant increase in the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of technological processes, which is relevant in the modern road construction complex. 12 Ref., 4 Fig.
