Quality Control Products

Volvo Density Direct Intelligent Compaction System

Available in two packages for select Volvo designs— Volvo IC and Volvo IC with Density Direct. • Offers pass mapping, temperature mapping and data storage features;

Volvo IC with Density Direct includes real-time density mapping technology • Produces a density calculation that is accurate to within 1.5 percent of core sampling, providing a real-time reading of density values over 100 percent of the mat • Reduces the occurrence of inadequate densities and time spent taking core samples, improves quality, and leads to much greater uniformity • User interface depicts a density map, showing each square foot of rolled asphalt in a color representing density, and also provides a realtime numerical density reading displayed in the corner of the screen • Data gathered from pass mapping, temperature mapping and density mapping is stored on the IC system’s internal 14 GB hard drive, which provides enough space for approximately seven months of data logging • Meets state DOT and FHWA requirements for intelligent compaction specifications

Topcon Thermal Mapping System for Asphalt Paving

Designed to monitor temperature segregation and easily provide accurate compliance reporting, all with real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning accuracy. • Provides a visualization to operators in real time of whether the mix falls within a pre-defined temperature range • Quickly tells operators if mix is stable or if moderate or severe temperature variation is occurring • Creates data reporting files to download for applications such as DOT compliance via an interactive Pavelink module

A decidedly human touch to plant automation.

Designed around real people.

“The plant control system that MINDS designed for us has worked very well. The graphics depict the plant almost identically as built and are very easy to follow from the control room. Each value is shown with its position indicated by colours that make identifying issues, such as a stuck valve, extremely easy. The materials that we have produced with the system have been very consistent from the fi rst production run.”

Allen Hendricks, Vise President, Asphalt Divisions Manager Blythe Construction, Inc.

For the past 25 years, MINDS has built a reputation for user-friendly, advanced, customizable plant automation control systems. As of April 2022, we became part of the Astec family to add to their Rock to Road solution for asphalt road building. MINDS provides award-winning desktop software, mobile apps, and hardware for many applications:

 Drums, Batches, Combo/hybrid hot mix plants,

Emulsion plants, Liquid Terminals.  Silo load-out, Ticketing, and Cloud-based data management for the Rock to Road industry.

Better data. Increased control. Higher profi ts.

DESIGN, DETAILS, AND DURABILITY.

InstroTek NoNuke Non-Nuclear Asphalt Density Gauge

Offers system error warnings and advanced measurement technology which can result in a more accurate and precise density and percent compaction measurements. • Systems include Moisture Presence

Warning, Auto Surface-Roughness

Correction and Gauge System

Checks, which notify the user of potential gauge issues and help eliminate outside factors that can affect the gauge reading • Free NoNuke Mobile App can be downloaded from the Google Play

Store and can capture data, display test results and create reports from any Android smartphone or tablet

www.ForConstructionPros. com/21138201 PaveScan Mix Design Module

Sensitive to subtle changes in aggregate, mix and moisture, comparing daily samples against approved mix designs makes any deviations apparent and helps to fix any problems before the mix is deployed in the field. • With one five-minute lab test, users can accurately reveal problems before any need for silo dumps or other costly remediation • PaveScan MDM also turns our PaveScan RDM system into a powerful new Quality

Control (QC) tool for asphalt density assessment • PaveScan MDM creates a correlation between the dielectric value of the mix at different percent voids • This correlation is used by PaveScan RDM to show accurate density variability within the asphalt mat • This degree of process control means bridge decks and longitudinal joints can now be rolled to specification in real-time

FAMC GT1 Asphalt/RCC Paving System

A cost-effective system that allows you to pave to a fixed thickness to the surface below. The dual sonic sensors, placed on each side of the screed, in conjunction with the slope sensor gives you precise control over slope and grade. This system will also make your machine Leica 3D ready regardless of manufacturer or year. • Able to control elevation, screed endgate, and steering capability. • Can be installed on any make, model, or year asphalt paving machine. • Screed control is made easy using the intuitive Danfoss interface that is designed with the operator in mind • Sun glare or inclement weather will almost never be a concern to this interface as the anti-glare coated screen is IP66 rated and connectors are MIL-SPEC IP67 • Along with the reliability and precision of the GT1 system, FAMC provides training, installation, and 24-7 support to ensure success • Systems are proudly made in the USA and replacement components are stocked to be available within hours
