AsphaltQube Pro – Modular Electro-Mechanically Operated Asphalt Tester

Designed around the third generation Integrated Multi-Axis Control System (IMACS2) controller, AsphaltQube Pro is a welcome addition to the current IPC Global range of modular testing systems. The new 30kN capacity dynamic actuator benefits from the revolutionary Electromechanical Servoactuation Technology (EmS) allowing to perform an infinite range of QA / QC or new materials’ development tests.

The AsphaltQube Pro can be used as part of your SuperPave performance based testing program.

The new EmS electromechanical actuator with high pre-load ball screw delivering 30kN backlash-free dynamic force over 100mm travel, with minimum noise
Adjustable motorized reaction frame, controlled by software or integrated joystick controller, able to adjust the vertical daylight according to the test configuration
An optional modular temperature-controlled cabinet, available with a range -40°C to +80°C, easy to set-up and maintain thanks to a two-piece modular construction. Fixed or ramp temperature can be set-up with IPC Global’s UTS Neutron software
Exceptional cooling performance especially at low temperature, with possibility to perform thermal cracking tests.
Suitable for Triaxial cell for 100mm and 150mm dia. asphalt mix or unbound granular material specimens. Optional air compressor that comes integrated in the machine
All test transducers, confinement pressure line and Four-Point bend jig clamping motors can connect directly to the rack inside the temperature controlled cabinet.
Clarity in results with the 3rd Generation Integrated Multi Axis Control System (IMACS2)
Fully integrated and very compact in design, a perfect solution for both static and mobile testing facilities
All-in-one touchscreen PC (optional)

Features

EmS technology’s main benefits

Improved dynamic performance over servo-pneumatics
Stand-alone with no need of compressed air supply
Lower maintenance
Robust and durable giving a more resilient solution
Compact design requiring, in general, a smaller footprint
Easy to use
