Automatic Softening Point Apparatus Ring and Ball

Rheological Characterization of Asphalt:
Asphalt's fundamental properties, including needle penetration, softening point, ductility, and viscosity, are critical factors influencing its performance in various applications. Among these, the softening point is a pivotal indicator that measures the temperature at which asphalt transitions from a solid to a flowable state, exhibiting its resistance to deformation. This critical threshold is determined under standardized conditions, where a steel ball resting on a metal ring within an asphalt sample is subjected to heating until the asphalt softens enough for the ball to penetrate a specified distance (25.4 mm).

A high softening point signifies superior heat resistance in petroleum asphalt, indicative of a high asphaltene content, robust colloid structure, and overall durability. To accurately and efficiently assess this parameter, the automatic softening point ring and ball apparatus is employed, adhering to international standards such as ASTM D36 and GOST 33142, making it versatile for analyzing road, coal, and liquid petroleum asphalts.

Key Attributes Enhanced:
This advanced apparatus incorporates microcomputer-controlled operations, automating mixing procedures, ensuring linear heating patterns, and seamlessly detecting and displaying test outcomes, facilitating direct printing of results for easy documentation.
Crafted with precision, the high-temperature resistant glass beaker ensures durability, while the steel ball positioning ring and ball dimensions adhere strictly to standardized specifications, guaranteeing accuracy and repeatability.
Space-saving and portable, the desktop-sized unit boasts a sleek liquid crystal display and intuitive touch keyboard controls, allowing for the concurrent testing of two samples, significantly enhancing productivity.
Featuring an RS-232C computer communication interface, the apparatus facilitates seamless data transfer and remote monitoring, enabling integration with laboratory information management systems for advanced data analysis and reporting.


Technical Specifications Elucidated:
Operating on an AC (220±10%) V50Hz power supply, the apparatus consumes no more than 700W, ensuring energy efficiency.
With a temperature resolution of 0.1℃, it provides precise measurements across a wide range: 5°C to 80°C for samples with softening points up to 80°C, and 32°C to 160°C for higher softening points.
The heating rate is intelligently adjusted to (5±0.5)°C/min within three minutes of test initiation, ensuring consistency and accuracy.
Magnetic stirring is employed, with a variable speed range of 0 to 300 revolutions per minute, ensuring uniform heating and sample consistency.
The beaker's effective volume of approximately 1000ml accommodates ample asphalt for reliable testing.
Results are displayed on a touch LCD screen, offering clear visibility and ease of operation.
Designed for optimal performance in environments with temperatures ranging from 15°C to 35°C and relative humidity not exceeding 85%, ensuring reliable operation in diverse laboratory settings.
