Asphaltic material rutting tester DWT

The EN version of the Double Wheel Tracker for Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) is a testing device used to evaluate the rutting resistance and moisture susceptibility of asphalt pavement. The wheel tracker is equipped with sensors to measure the rut depth and moisture-induced distress of the asphalt samples under controlled conditions. This testing helps assess the performance and durability of asphalt mixes, aiding in the design and optimization of pavement materials for long-lasting and safe road infrastructure. It consists of a heavy-duty wheel that applies a controlled load and simulates the repeated traffic loads experienced by the pavement at a fixed temperature. Wheel Tracking test helps assess the performance and durability of asphalt mixes, aiding in the design and optimization of pavement materials for long-lasting and safe road infrastructure. Two versions available as prescribed by EN 12697-22 Small Size device: specimen conditioning in air and in air or water. Both versions can be upgraded with automatic system which lift one of the wheel from the specimen that has reached the rut target continuing the test on the other specimen. See Upgrading options Automatic wheel lifting mechanism. We also produce Wheel Trackers conforming to AASHTO T324 standard and a universal version conforming to both AASHTO and EN standards. See Hamburg type double wheel tracker and Universal AASHTO/EN double wheel tracker. Machine body Sheet steel, powder coated. Trasparent sliding door. Loaded wheel system The EN versions are fitted with double solid rubber tyre, 203 mm dia. x 50 mm wide. The wheel load is 700 N.
