Controlled shear-box action
Contact pressure and cyclic shear motion are controlled around the selected ASTM D7981 specimen-preparation workflow without relying on impact compaction.
Asphalt shear box compactor for ASTM D7981 prismatic specimen-preparation workflows.
LS-SC100 Asphalt Shear Box Compactor prepares prismatic asphalt specimens for ASTM D7981 workflows using controlled contact pressure and cyclic shear motion with up to 4° shear angle and PC-based control.
Combines controlled contact pressure with cyclic shear motion to prepare prismatic asphalt specimens for ASTM D7981 workflows.
Servo-controlled horizontal motion provides repeatable shear frequency and angle control during specimen compaction.
Supports configured shear angles up to 4° to match the selected laboratory specimen-preparation procedure.
Prepares 450 x 150 mm slabs with a configurable 120–185 mm height for subsequent cutting or performance-test preparation.
An integrated extraction system assists specimen removal after the programmed compaction sequence.
The PC interface supports method setup and monitoring of available pressure, motion, and specimen-height channels.
LS-SC100 prepares 450 x 150 mm prismatic asphalt specimens by applying controlled contact pressure and cyclic shear motion. The system supports up to 4° shear angle, 3.7 cycles/min shear frequency, contact pressure up to 2 MPa, and PC-based control for ASTM D7981 specimen-preparation workflows.
Contact pressure and cyclic shear motion are controlled around the selected ASTM D7981 specimen-preparation workflow without relying on impact compaction.
The 450 x 150 mm mould format prepares slabs with a configurable 120–185 mm height for subsequent laboratory specimen processing.
LS-SC100 Asphalt Shear Box Compactor is used for shear-box compaction of prismatic asphalt specimens workflows in civil engineering materials laboratories, quality control labs, research programs, and construction material acceptance testing.
LS-SC100 supports ASTM D7981. Lithostek can also configure reporting fields, accessories, and calibration documents around local project or laboratory requirements.
Yes. Lithostek application engineers can review specimen format, target standards, throughput, power supply, data output, and training requirements before quoting a suitable configuration.
