Marshall Load Frame
The AM-100 Marshall Load Frame, with a load capacity of 10,000 lbs. (45 kN), applies a load to cylindrical asphalt test specimens mounted in a thick-walled stability test mold (breaking head).

Microswitches control a system shut-down for drive system protection at the platen up/down limit.
