Description
The LT-AS0050 50 kN Capacity Automatic Marshall Stability Test Machine is used to determine the maximum load and flow values of bituminous mixtures. The machine comprises of a robust and compact two column frame with adjustable upper cross beam. The unit is a bench mounting compression frame with motor and worm gear housed within the base unit. It is designed to operate with the minimum of maintenance.
Test speed is 50.8 mm/min also maintained under load thanks to an powerfull electric motor.
For safety, the up and down travel of the lower platen is limited the use of limit switches. Rapid adjustment of the platen is controlled using the up and down buttons on the digital readout unit. The machine can be hand operated by a lateral hand wheel for calibration purposes.
The measuring system consists of a 50 kN capacity load cell fitted to the upper cross beam to read stability values and the 25 x 0.01 mm Displacement Sensor fitted to the Breaking Head.
The unit is supplied complete with 7″TFT Touch Screen Control Unit, 50 kN capacity Load cell, Breaking Head for ∅ 100 mm samples and 25 mm Displacement Sensor.
Breaking head for ∅ 150 mm samples and Indirect Tensile Splitting Device for ∅ 100 mm samples should be ordered separately.
