Bending Beam has been designed to perform flexural tests on asphalt binder and similar specimens per AASHTO T 313, AASHTO TP 87, ASTM D6648, and BS EN 14771 specifications as part of the PG grading system according to Superpave. It is the first of its kind to offer an internal computer system incorporating touch screen technology.
Each Bending Beam consists of a fluid bath base with a built-in touchscreen computer, load frame, external refrigeration unit, and a calibration kit with carrying case. Used in part to determine a sample’s critical cracking temperature and low temperature PG grade, the Beam's -40⁰C to 25⁰C temperature range is efficiently calculated by a platinum RTD measuring device.
Designed to be user friendly and efficient, the Bending Beam allows operators to enter a multitude of customisable test parameters. A built-in Ethernet connection allows users to monitor their equipment remotely using a tablet, smartphone, or other mobile device.
