The Ductilometer is designed to determine the bituminous ductility, measuring the maximum distance a standardized briquette of molten bitumen can be stretched before breaking.
The system features a motor-driven carriage running smoothly along precision guide ways, guaranteeing constant pulling speed and highly repeatable results.
A large insulated tank houses the test environment, equipped with a digital thermostat, immersion heater, cooling coil for cold-water circulation, and an integrated circulation pump to maintain uniform temperature throughout the test.
