ISO 15642:2003为高速公路、道路和机场路面以及道路系统和网络的施工和维护中使用的沥青搅拌站确定了术语，给出了规范要求，并列出了有助于确定理论性能和起草技术文件的特征。 它没有规定具体标准所涵盖的安全条件。与制成品质量控制相关的设备由这些产品的特定标准定义。 ISO 15642:2003适用于生产期间的固定设备，无论其是否可转让，不包括用于土壤稳定或翻新的移动设备。 适用于连续生产和批量生产用碳氢化合物粘合剂处理的材料的混合和/或涂层设备。

ISO 15642:2003 establishes the terminology, gives requirements for specifications, and lists characteristics useful for determining theoretical performances and drafting technical documents for asphalt mixing plants used in the construction and maintenance of motorway, road and airport pavements, and road system and networks. It does not specify safety conditions, which are covered by specific standards. Equipment relating to quality control of manufactured products is defined by the standards specific to these products. ISO 15642:2003 is applicable to fixed plants during production time, whether they are transferable or not, which excludes mobile equipment for soil stabilization or retreading. It is applicable to mixing and/or coating plants for materials treated with hydrocarbon binders for continuous production and for batch production.
