High performance ductility tester

The ductility test is performed to determine the ductility of bituminous materials by measuring the elongation before breakage when two briquette sample tips are separated at a specified speed and temperature..

Main features

• 4 tension line (briquette capacity) x 1500 mm
• Closed-loop PID temperature control system
• Insulated stainless steel water bath
• Unique built-in thermoregulation system compensating control, optimized by connection to the chiller (optional)
• High carriage return speed 500 mm/min for higher productivity
• Adjustable speed range from 5 to 100 mm/min
• PC controlled using dedicated software
• Includes a system to measure forces up to 1200N with load cells (up to 300N per line if 4 load cells are used).
• Temperature range from 4 to 30°C
