    SUPERPAVE GYRATORY COMPACTOR

    The Superpave mix design procedure features the Superpave gyratory compactor (SGC) for compacting specimens of hot mix asphalt. The IPC Servopac is a servo-controlled multi-axis pneumatic loading system designed for the laboratory production of asphalt specimens having characteristics that closely resemble those obtained from such material as laid in situ. A machine is a standalone unit that includes an intelligent controller and pendant with an integrated keypad, liquid crystal display, and printer interface.

    CONTROLS SRL FILTERLESS CENTRIFUGE

    Used for rapid filterless separation of filler (ash) from binder solution coming, for instance. The centrifuge can also be used for binder recovery from an asphalt sample previously disgregated in solvent and poured into the funnel fit with 200 mm dia. test sieves to separate gradually the aggregates.

    PIVOT AUTOMATIC PENETROMETER

    The Automatic Bitumen Penetrometer is used to determine the penetration of bituminous samples under constant load, time and heat. The Penetrometers are intended for measuring the consistency of bituminous materials. The equipment is microprocessor controlled, using the latest technologies and programming tools. It includes a 6" lateral touch screen display, intuitive and easy to use, which shows the penetration/time curve and can display and average up to 6 tests, and a thermostatically controlled water bath.

    Automatic Ring and Ball/Softening Point Tester is an innovative microprocessor-controlled automatic testing device used to determine the softening point of bituminous materials using water or glycerol as bath liquid ranging from 30°C to 150°C. Two bitumen samples casted in shouldered brass rings while being held in a horizontal position, the temperature is increased under controlled rate acc. to standards. The softening point is the average temperature value of two samples when they collapse 25 mm while each carrying a steel ball.
