LET US MAKE YOUR WORK A LITTLE SMOOTHER.
Real Time Quality Control for Asphalt Plants
The Real-Time Quality Control System for Asphalt Plants utilizes Automatic Belt Sampler (ABS) which sweeps a representative sample off a moving conveyor belt and deposits it into a Drying Oven. Read More……
The HMA Asphalt Sample Splitter allows a user to divide large samples of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) into representative portions. The splitter allows a user to accurately and repeatably divide HMA into smaller representative samples for laboratory analysis.
Asphalt Pavement Analyzer
The APA is a three-wheel multi-functional Loaded Wheel Tester (LWT) used for evaluating permanent deformation (rutting), fatigue cracking and moisture susceptibility of both hot mix and cold mix.
Asphalt Pavement Analyzer Junior
APA Jr. is a two-wheel multi-functional Loaded Wheel Tester (LWT) used for evaluating permanent deformation (rutting), fatigue cracking and moisture susceptibility of both hot mix and cold mix.
Plastic Mold Compaction Device
The PM Compaction Device is used to prepare cylindrical test specimens with an approximate 2:1 height to diameter aspect ratio for used in a variety of mechanical property testing (ex. compressive strength, elastic modulus, tensile strength).
Warm Mix Asphalt Laboratory
Foaming System
The Warm Mix Asphalt Laboratory Foaming System will allow a user to run foam mix asphalt mixes in their lab and is basically a laboratory version of ASTEC DOUBLE BARREL GREEN SYSTEM.
Asphalt Vibratory Compactor (AVC)
The AVC is designed to compact hot mix asphalt into cylindrical and beam test specimens. The AVC compacts asphalt at the same amplitude, same frequency, and same relative weight that is experienced with a vibratory roller on the roadway.

Automatic Belt Sampler
The ABS is utilized to safely sweep an accurate and representative sample of aggregate off a moving conveyor belt. The ABS deposits the sample into a container or gradation unit in approximately one second.
Single Pug mill Mixer
The Single Pug mill Mixer combines aggregate and liquid asphalt together utilizing stainless steel augers in a heated chamber. The Mixer replicates in the lab how hot mix asphalt is manufactured at asphalt plants.
Double Pug mill Mixer
The Double Pug mill Mixer combines aggregate and liquid asphalt together utilizing stainless steel augers in two heated chambers. The Mixer replicates in the lab how hot mix asphalt is manufactured at asphalt plants.
Laboratory Automatic Gradation Unit
A particle size analyzer that conducts a complete sieve analysis automatically and transmits the accumulated data to a computer, where the data is saved in an Excel spread sheet for further manipulation and analysis.
Remote Truck Sampling Device (RTSD)
The Remote Truck Sampling Device (RTSD) safely captures a representative, repeatable, non- segregated sample of asphalt from a haul vehicle and deposits the sample into a specimen container.
Field Gradation Unit(AGU)
The Field AGU is used to automatically run gradations at aggregate or asphalt plants. The Field AGU receives a sample from the Automatic Belt Sampler (ABS), shakes the sample, grades the sample, and provides a user with a gradation report.
Mobile Labs
The Mobile Labs can be used for Superpave Design and QC/QA Testing, Soils testing, and Concrete testing. The Labs are available in 3 basic sizes 65′ x 10′, 50′ x 10′, and 35′ x 10′.
Skid Mounted Testing Laboratory
The Skid Mounted Labs are typically mounted on concrete pads or concrete block foundations. Skid Mounted Labs can be used for Super Pave Design and QC/QA Testing, Soils testing, and Concrete testing.
