The Cannon Digital Paddle Viscometer for Asphalt is a fully automated, rotational paddle viscometer designed to measure the dynamic viscosity of non-homogeneous materials such as emulsified asphalts, residual oils, marine fuels, slurries, and suspensions. With integrated temperature control and automated operation, this compact system simplifies and improves viscosity testing across multiple temperature points—40 °C, 50 °C, 80 °C, and 100 °C—offering a precise and low-maintenance alternative to traditional, labor-intensive methods.
Product Features
