BALANCED MIX DESIGN FRAME
LARGE LABORATORY MATERIALS ANALYSER
The
multi-purpose
loading
system
–
Perform
BMD
and
standard
mix
tests with quality and precision.
The
Balanced
Mix
Design
Frame
provides
the
ultimate
solution
for
a
lab
looking
to
perform
the
key
new
BMD
tests
IDEAL-CT,
IDEAL-RT,
I-FIT,
and
SCB.
Additionally,
it
can
be
used
to
perform
standard
laboratory
tests
such
as
Marshall, TSR, and interlayer shear bond.
The
BMD
9500
is
the
market-leading
load
frame
for
labs
that
need
to
run
balanced
mix
design
tests.
Unique
PID
control
lifts
the
machine
above
other
screw
driven
machines
with
highly
accurate
speed
control
and
provides
servo control performance at a fraction of the price.
Balanced
Mixed
Design
Frame
CS-BMD9500
is
able
to
perform
IDEAL-CT
ASTM,
SCB
AASHTO(I-FIT),
IDEAL-RT
ASTM,
SCB
ASTM
(Louisiana),
Tack
Bond
Shear AASHTO, Marshall, Leutner, and TSR.
For
key
BMD
tests,
the
results
are
calculated
on
the
machine.
This
feature
removes
the
awkward
procedure
of
downloading
data
and
transferring
it
to
a
PC
in
order
to
be
calculated
and
displayed.
This
also
gives
operators
the
opportunity
to
quickly
determine
whether
the
design
of a sample mix is within spec. Of course, if required data can easily be transferred to a PC for reports or further research.
