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.

KEY FEATURES

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. • PID software algorithm produces servo-hydraulic rivalling displacement control • Super stiff frame to minimise frame flex during tests • Instant on-screen test results – no need to transfer data to a PC • Analysis for IDEAL-CT, IDEAL-RT, I-FIT, and ASTM SCB • Included in NCAT BMD machine assessment
