The latest product of the rotary compactor

Currently, the most advanced and user-friendly rotary compactor on the market is the latest model from Troxler—the Roxler 5850 rotary compactor. The 5850 model features a completely new design; its electronic control system, hydraulic motor, and rotation-angle adjustment software are entirely different from those of previous models. This makes the compactor more durable and capable of meeting the stringent requirements of any asphalt laboratory. Once installed, the rotary compactor is ready for immediate use without the need for calibration. This model can compact asphalt specimens to a specified height or for a predetermined number of rotations, and each rotation’s angle is precisely recorded to ensure accuracy.

Types of Cast-in-Place Asphalt Mixtures

There are various types of cast-in-place asphalt mixtures, which are mainly divided into three categories: petroleum asphalt, coal tar asphalt, and natural asphalt. Each of these has its own distinct characteristics.

Features of the Rotary Compaction Tester

The rotary compactor boasts several key features: a lighter weight, a smaller footprint, a compact design, a steel frame structure, a stable electronic control system, and a quiet operating environment. This rotary compactor model can compact asphalt specimens to a specified height or for a predetermined number of rotations. During each rotation, the angle is precisely recorded to ensure accuracy. If you wish to adjust the rotation angle, you can do so conveniently via buttons. The model can store up to 20 sets of test data, features a large-size backlit display, and includes a USB port for printing or exporting test data.

Application of Cast-in-Place Asphalt Mixtures

Pour-in-place asphalt mixtures are particularly well-suited for paving steel bridge decks. The Jiangyin Yangtze River Bridge in China and the Tsing Ma Bridge in Hong Kong were among the first bridges to adopt this type of pavement. Subsequently, it was also used for the steel bridge deck pavement of the Shandong Shengli Yellow River Bridge. Further applications include the Ziya River Bridge in Tianjin, the Donghai Bridge, the Changping Bridge in Foshan, the Sanzhi Fan Bridge in Changsha, the Caiyuanba Bridge in Chongqing, and the Anqing Bridge. In addition, pour-in-place asphalt concrete offers the possibility of ultra-thin pavements and serves as an effective intermediate layer to prevent reflective cracking, demonstrating excellent stress-absorbing capabilities.
