The Cox & Sons Balanced Mix Design Frame CS-BMD9500 can perform a variety of asphalt tests including IDEAL-CT, IDEAL-RT, I-FIT, SCB, Marshall, and TSR. It uses PID control for highly accurate speed control during tests. Test results are calculated and displayed on the machine. Accessories are sold separately for different test standards and sample sizes. The frame has a 11,000 lbf load capacity and precision displacement control from 0.00001 to 2 in/min.

The Cox & Sons multi-purpose loading system – Perform BMD and standard mix tests with quality and precision
The Balanced Mix Design Frame provides the ultimate solution for a lab looking to perform the key new BMD tests IDEAL-CT, IDEAL-RT, I-FIT, and SCB. Additionally, it can be used to perform standard laboratory tests such as Marshall, TSR, and interlayer shear bond. More information on Balanced Mix Design can be found here. The Cox and Sons BMD 9500 is the market-leading load frame for labs that need to run balanced mix design tests. Unique PID control lifts the machine above other screw driven machines with highly accurate speed control and provides servo control performance at a fraction of the price.
Balanced Mixed Design Frame CS-BMD9500 is able to perform IDEAL-CT ASTM, SCB AASHTO(I-FIT), IDEAL-RT ASTM, SCB ASTM (Louisiana), Tack Bond Shear AASHTO, Marshall, Leutner, and TSR. You can find recommended test accessories (In the Accessories tab) For key BMD tests, the results are calculated on the machine. This feature removes the awkward procedure of downloading data and transferring it to a PC in order to be calculated and displayed. This also gives operators the opportunity to quickly determine whether the design of a sample mix is within spec. Of course, if required data can easily be transferred to a PC for reports or further research.
Key Features
PID software algorithm produces servo-hydraulic rivalling displacement control
