AMPT PRO Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester
The AMPT PRO Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester is the most advanced hydraulic dynamic testing system for asphalt mix performance evaluation, available across UAE and GCC through Burgan Equipment Co.
Designed by IPC Global with the latest technologies, the AMPT PRO sets the benchmark for innovation and performance in asphalt pavement testing.
Overview
The AMPT PRO Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester is the culmination of two National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) projects — 9-19 and 9-29. It fully complies with AASHTO T378/TP79 and is the industry standard tool for Superpave performance-based asphalt testing programs used by highway agencies, research institutions, and quality control laboratories across the world.
The system integrates seamlessly with FHWA FlexMAT and FlexPAVE software, making it a complete solution for modern pavement design and analysis workflows.
AMPT PRO Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester — Key Performance Features
- Advanced Hydraulic Power Supply: The new Hydraulic Power Supply uses inverter technology coupled with a high-performance labyrinth bearing actuator to deliver 19 kN of static force and 17 kN of dynamic force. This ensures highly accurate and repeatable load application across all test types.
- Integrated IMACS2 Control System: The third generation Integrated Multi Axis Control System provides clarity in results with 32-bit real-time digital computer control, 24-bit auto-ranging data acquisition, and simultaneous acquisition speeds of up to 200 kHz across all channels.
- All-in-One Touchscreen PC: The system features an integrated all-in-one touchscreen computer for easy and ergonomic operation. The intuitive interface simplifies test setup, monitoring, and data management for laboratory technicians at all levels.
- Plug-and-Play Transducers: Interchangeable transducers and load cells with plug-and-play signal conditioners allow for quick and easy transition between test setups without complex recalibration procedures.
- Wide Temperature Range: The AMPT PRO operates across a temperature range of -10°C to +70°C with a cooling rate that typically reaches +4°C in under 30 minutes at ambient temperature of +23°C, ensuring accurate simulation of real pavement conditions.
- Compact and Fully Integrated Design: The system is fully integrated and compact, making it a perfect solution for both static laboratory facilities and mobile testing units deployed at project sites across UAE and GCC.
