30KN Servo-Hydraulic Dynamic Testing System

Additional Info

  • Model: B230
  • Standards: -

The DTS-30 Dynamic Testing System is a servo-hydraulic testing machine utilizing digital control of a high performance servo valve to provide accurate loading wave shapes up to 100 Hz. The DTS-30 can be operated in tension, compression dynamic loading and is suited to testing a diverse range of materials such as asphalt, soil, unbound granular materials, fibres and plastics.
The DTS-30 is underpinned by Pavetest’s leading edge CDAS digital controller, TestLab software and a full complement of accessories, hardware and software in perfect unison.
The DTS-30 Dynamic Testing System is compact, fully integrated, user and environmentally friendly.

The machine includes:
- Rigid two column load frame
- 30 kN Servo-hydraulic actuator (100 mm Stroke)
- 2.2 kW Hydraulic Power Supply
- 16 Channel Control and Data Acquisition System (CDAS)
& TestLab software
- Load cell (± 30 kN)
- 100 mm actuator LVDT

MAIN FEATURES:

- Compact, robust load frame

- Small footprint; 90 cm x 135 cm, including hydraulic power

supply and climatic chamber

- Reaction frame embedded in the test chamber

- Portable temperature control unit

- Fully configurable to suit a large range of testing applications

- Digital Servo-Hydraulic control

- 4 axis control and 16 channel data acquisition as standard

ADVANTAGES:

- The DTS-30 fatigue rated, servo-hydraulic actuator utilizes metal labyrinth bearings and seals.
The labyrinth bearings and seals are designed to reduce friction and maintain low operating temperatures.
The bearings experience little-to-no wear, operate at high speeds and offer a long service life.
- A bottom loading machine. Before this current crop of universal testing machines, many dynamic testing machines were bottom loading.
More recently, the Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester (AMPT) changed the mindset of the testing community by highlighting the benefits of a
bottom loading machine.
- Portable temperature control unit. The temperature control unit attaches to the test chamber using a magnetic seal and can be wheeled
away when not required or for servicing. It can be removed without dismantling the machine or disrupting the testing program.
