About this file
This document presents Salient Characteristics for a Gyratory Compactor and NCAT Oven, specifying technical requirements for specialized asphalt testing equipment. The Gyratory Compactor, manufactured by Troxler Electronic Laboratories Inc., produces bituminous samples simulating field compaction particle orientation and supports Superpave mix design methods. Its specifications include consolidation pressure of 90-1000 kPa, gyration angle of 0-3 degrees, gyration speed of 30 +/- 0.5 per minute, and compatibility with AASHTO T 312 and ASTM D6925 standards.
The NCAT Oven is a specialized asphalt content furnace designed to determine asphalt content by burning off asphalt and measuring remaining aggregate. Its key specifications include a maximum sample size of 5000g, integrated scale resolution of 0.1g, 20-minute warm-up and burn times, and compliance with ASTM D6307 and AASHTO T 308 standards. Both devices are offered with a 1-year warranty, and shipping costs will be included in the contract. The equipment is intended to provide safe and efficient methods for asphalt mixture analysis in the road construction and materials testing industry.

Salient Characteristics
FOR
Gyratory Compactor and NCAT Oven
Scope: A Gyratory compactor produces bituminous samples which simulate actual field compaction particle orientation thus improving mix design ability. Gyratory compactor was developed under
Superpave mix design method.
An NCAT oven, or NCAT Asphalt Content Furnace, is a specialized piece of equipment used to determine the asphalt content of paving mixtures by burning off the asphalt and measuring the remaining aggregate. It's a critical tool in the asphalt industry, offering a safe and efficient alternative to older, more hazardous methods for asphalt content analysis.
