The SmarTracker meets AASHTO-T324 and measures resistance to rutting and moisture damage in asphalt mixtures. Results from this test help construction engineers and technicians verify the integrity of asphalt mix designs, evaluate materials and predict field performance. The SmarTracker is designed entirely with the end-user in mind. While other, more expensive wheel tracking systems have technicians lifting heavy wheel assemblies into position, the SmarTracker’s innovative retracting wheel requires no lifting at all. The integrated, touch-screen operating system allows quick test execution and all electronics are intelligently placed away from the testing tanks to avoid moisture damage. SmarTracker’s unique hood, tank and air heaters keep water and air temperatures constant during the test period. The two independent tanks and wheel transport mechanism allow for simultaneous testing of wet and dry samples. The SmarTracker’s innovative, user-friendly features make loaded wheel testing safer, easier and more accurate.SMARTRACKER™ FEATURES4Meets AASHTO T324 4Each wheel is driven by an independent motor4Innovative and unique wheel roll off mechanism4Does NOT require lifting of heavy wheel components4Electronics shielded to prevent moisture damage4Rugged design to withstand harsh laboratory environments4Small footprint to accommodate small construction labs4Independently operated wheels capable of conducting wet or dry tests simultaneously4Touch-screen controls based on windows operating system4Fully Automatic, test stops when target rut depth is reached4Easy to load, unload and drain water after each testSmarTracker™ AASHTO T324
