Kinexus DSR+ The world’s most sensitive DSR for all construction and petro chemicals testing

The Kinexus DSR+ is a dynamic shear rheometer for research and development requirements in the Asphalt industry, with true ‘plug and play’ functionality for all measuring systems and environmental control units. The Kinexus DSR+ enables pioneering Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) based testing while offering access to a full range of standard rheological tests with total flexibility of test design and set-up.

The Kinexus DSR+ incorporates technological innovations that enable optimal flexibility in rheological test capabilities and protocols – for meeting quality control requirements in the Asphalt industry.

• Grade testing to industry standards such as AASHTO and EN specifications with Time-Temperature Superposition for master curve generation.
• Wide variety of measurement geometries optimized for rheological characterization of liquid binders through to solid asphalt cores.
• All modes of rheological operation – stress control, shear rate control and direct strain controlled oscillation at demand strain amplitude for accurate control of sample strain history.
• Access to all rheological tests supplied with the standard Kinexus package in addition to the standard Asphalt software.
• 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.
• Intelligent geometry recognition with full auto-configuration and user feedback on system status to guarantee robust data for all measurements.
• Solids fixtures for measuring fatigue or accumulated strain testing of asphalt cores and Penetrometer adapter for automated penetration testing of asphalt binders.
• Complete sample history from the point of loading onto the rheometer available in data file as standard – because ensuring reliable rheology data for complex materials like asphalt actually starts before a measurement takes place.
• Exceptional vertical travel and gapping capabilities with ultra-responsive and highly sensitive normal force system for class-leading performance.
• Unique ‘plug and play’ cartridge system for all temperature and environmental controllers – all mechanical, power, communication and fluid connections made in one simple action.
• Multifunctional accessory design – plate cartridges with interchangeable lower plates and cylinder cartridges with interchangeable cups – for a cost-effective solution and widest application coverage.
