The line of Asphalt Bitumen Testing Equipment from Applied Test Systems (ATS) has been an essential part of the SHRP asphalt research program and its Superpave system. Every new system has been fitted with state-of-the-art, exclusive ATS software. It offers a sleek, digital touch screen, which enables users to test and record data easily.

For users searching for a highly simplistic and affordable testing solution, the BBR2S model is available without a touchscreen and has also been updated with the latest BBR2S software. Users can guarantee that they stay ahead of the curve with the company that has a notion towards the future.

Developed to burn off test residue from laboratory equipment, it enhances earlier versions and integrates automatic operation, cutting-edge touchscreen technology, and a clean, matte-black design.

Lab technicians do not need to depend on wire brushing, scraping, or hand heating to clean equipment. Operators can place everything in their Pyro-Clean®, click start, and enable the machine to operate. This decreases mess, saves time, and creates a safer and highly efficient laboratory environment. With the availability of CE certification, European customers can experience all that the Pyro-Clean® has to provide as well!
