Servo-Pneumatic Four Point Bend Apparatus

Product Code LTEKCTLB-AMT41-0076

Description & Specification

Servo-Pneumatic Four Point Bend Apparatus

Compact and convenient, the Servo-Pneumatic Four Point Bend Apparatus Standalone features a digitally-controlled servo-pneumatic actuator that delivers highly accurate loading in both stress and strain control modes. The Four Point Bend Apparatus is of great benefit for your Superpave and other performance-based testing programs for measuring stiffness & fatigue properties, characterizing mixtures and as inputs into sophisticated pavement design models. Its beam cradle designed to subject asphalt beam specimens to four point bending with backlash free rotation and horizontal translation at all load reaction points.

Main Features:

Digital servo- pneumatic actuator provides accurate control of loading waveshape

Deflection can be measured at the neutral axis or at the top surface of the specimen.

Constant force motorized clamping with multiple preset force levels

Backlash free rotation and translation on all load and reaction points

Includes both on-specimen and outer fixed reference point strain measurement capabilities

Sinusoidal or haversine controlled stress loading

Non-linear regression data fitting ensures reliable determination of phase and modulus.
