The BEAST Heavy Duty Asphalt Mixer

The Beast has been expressly designed to prepare homogeneous bituminous mixtures at a strictly controlled temperature. The preparation of the bituminous sample is obtained in a short time period (few minutes) to avoid any mechanical aggregate degradation and to fully coat all mineral components, as requested ASTM D6307 & AASHTO TP53.

• Mixing capacity: 32 liters maximum
• Mixing bowl: stainless steel AISI 316
• Slot on the top of the lid to pour filler and additives during mixing
• Mixing temperature: selectable from ambient up to 500°F (260°C) through sensitive probe and digital display control
• Mixing speed: adjustable from 4 to 40 rpm
• Easy tilting unloading operation by electromechanical motion with rotation up to 130°
• Strictly controlled temperature
• Fast preparation of bituminous samples
• MX-5000

The Heavy Duty Asphalt Mixer produces representative samples to perform:

• Gyratory compaction tests 
•  Marshall stability tests 
•  Wheel tracking wet and dry tests
