MATEST GYRATORY COMPACTOR

 

Matest Gyratory Compactor is used to simulate and reproduce the real compaction conditions under actual road paving operations, hence determining the compaction properties of the asphalt.
Such compaction is achieved by combining the rotary action and the vertical resultant force applied by a mechanical head.
The Compactor comprises a highly rigid steel frame ensuring excellent angle control.
Load is applied by an electro-pneumatic cylinder, servo-controlled by a precision pressure regulator; the height is measured by a linear transducer.
Gyratory motion is generated by an eccentric high precision system allowing an easy set up with precision and constant angle of gyration.
The rotation speed is controlled by an inverter through on board computer control.
Using the proper perforated mould, the Compactor is able to run tests also on cold emulsified asphalt mix.
The acquired results are also employed in the investigation of volumetric and mechanical characteristics of the asphalt mix.

MAIN FEATURES:
- Highly rigid steel frame ensuring excellent angle control.
- Electro-pneumatic action with servo-controlled regulator.
- Electronic control unit with touch screen color display, that runs like a standard PC based on Windows operating system.
The touch-screen icon interface allows an easy set up of the parameters and immediate automatic execution of the test, data acquisition, processing, graphics and file.
Direct connection to Intranet (connection to a LAN network) and Internet to establish a remote communication and receive an immediate diagnostic analysis of the potential problem from Matest technicians, or for software updates.
Unlimited memory storage with: 2 USB ports, 1 SD card.

Power supply: 230V 1ph 50Hz 1000W
