The Thermal Mapper (TH-M1) complements paving workflows by monitoring asphalt temperature and thermal segregation during the paving process.
Asphalt that is too cold can harden too quickly, making it impossible to compact properly, and thermal segregation issues can point to future premature failure points. Monitoring these factors in real time helps paving project team members adjust mixes, deliveries, paver speed and other factors that contribute to a longer lifespan of the pavement laid.
The TH-M1 can provide DOTs with information they need to certify the paving process and finished tarmac will meet the criteria needed to approve the completed project. Not only that, the Thermal Mapper’s real-time feedback will help contractors maximize profitability by taking advantage of incentives and avoiding penalties set by DOTs.
The Thermal Mapper integrates with Pavelink. Pavelink Web allows access to the TH-M1 data.
The Thermal Mapper kit can be mounted on all brands of pavers and includes:
