The Kinexus DSR Series is the next generation rotational rheometer platform for asphalt testing that’s been developed from extensive market knowledge and feedback, integrating innovative instrument design with a revolutionary software interface, to deliver an intelligent solution that will exceed your rheological expectations.

A modular rheometer with true plug and play functionality for all measuring systems and environmental control units – the Kinexus DSR Series enables pioneering Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) based testing with a built-in comprehensive library of standard test protocols for the asphalt industry.

Key Benefits

• All modes of operation – stress, shear rate and direct strain controlled oscillation
• Exceptional vertical travel and gapping capabilities with ultra-responsive and highly sensitive Normal Force for dedicated pull-off, tack and penetration testing
• Unique rSpace software interface that offers total flexibility of test set-up, from sequence-driven Standard Operating Procedure (SOP)-type functionality to fully customizable test design
• Fully integrated materials database enables user friendly data management that can be tailored to any organization. Easily tie results by products, projects, customers, vendors, tanks, or locations. Maintain testing logs and specification limits for acceptance
• Wide variety of measurement geometries optimized for rheological characterization of liquid binders to solid asphalt cores
• Complete sample history recorded from loading to unloading, ensuring reliable and reproducible measurements
• Unique plug and play cartridge system for all environmental controllers – all mechanical, power, communication and fluid connections made in one simple action. Capable of fully automated calibration
• Geometry database in conjunction with RFID plate recognition ensures only the correct, in tolerance, plates are used for testing
• Fully automated Statistical Quality Control (SQC) charting with pass/fail analysis tied to any sample
