Yes, the MULTISPEED Digital Automatic Universal Tester for Displacement Controlled Tests meets the AASHTO T193 standard, which outlines the methodology for the quantitative determination of asphalt binder elastic recovery using a ductilometer. This standard is essential for evaluating the flexibility and recovery properties of asphalt binders, which are critical for ensuring asphalt pavement performance under varying temperatures and loads.

Compliance with AASHTO T193 indicates the tester’s capability to perform tests that assess the asphalt binder’s ability to return to its original length after being stretched, a key indicator of its performance under real-world conditions. The tester’s precise displacement control and automatic operation facilitate the accurate measurement of elastic recovery. This provides valuable insights into the material’s durability and resistance to cracking. By adhering to this standard, the MULTISPEED Digital Automatic Universal Tester for Displacement Controlled Tests supports the development and assessment of high-quality asphalt mixtures, contributing to road surfaces’ durability and longevity.
