AutoXtract Automatic Asphalt Extraction System

AutoXtract: Automatic Asphalt Extraction System for Rapid, Safe, and Accurate Testing

Introducing the AutoXtract, an innovative and fully automated system designed to revolutionize asphalt extraction, recovery, and binder analysis. Engineered for precision and safety, this device provides a comprehensive solution for determining the asphalt content in mixtures and characterizing the properties of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP).

Advanced Automation for Unmatched Efficiency The AutoXtract automates every critical step of the asphalt extraction process. Simply place your asphalt mixture sample inside the washing chamber, and in less than an hour, the system delivers highly accurate asphalt content results. The process yields clean, dry aggregates ready for immediate sieve analysis and gradation testing. All test data, including initial and final sample weights recorded by the integrated balance, is automatically exported to a .txt file, allowing for easy creation of customized reports and seamless data management.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Fully Automatic and Customizable: Enjoy a hands-off extraction process. The system is fully programmable, allowing you to select a pre-wash phase and customize the number of washing and drying cycles to meet specific testing requirements and material types.
• Rapid Results: Complete a full extraction and drying cycle in under one hour, significantly increasing your lab's throughput and productivity.
• Superior Extraction Technology: The AutoXtract combines powerful ultrasonic vibrations with controlled heating to ensure a thorough and complete extraction of asphalt binder from the aggregate.
• Enhanced Operator Safety: This advanced closed-loop system ensures that harmful solvent vapors, such as trichloroethylene, are fully contained. It eliminates the need for a fume hood and prevents operator exposure to hazardous fumes.
• Integrated Solvent Recovery: During the extraction process, the solvent is automatically distilled and recycled, reducing solvent consumption and minimizing environmental impact.
• Versatile Test Profiles: The system is capable of storing and displaying different test profiles, making it easy to switch between various testing protocols.
• Optional Rotary Evaporator Connection: For labs needing to perform further analysis on the extracted binder, an optional connection to a rotary evaporator flask is available for efficient binder recovery.

Available Kits and Accessories:

• Trichloroethylene Testing/Acceptance Kit: Everything you need to get started with TCE-based extractions.
• Maintenance Kit: A complete kit to ensure your AutoXtract system remains in optimal working condition.

Upgrade your laboratory with the AutoXtract system and experience a new standard in speed, safety, and accuracy for asphalt testing.
