• Compression range 100 to 300Kn
• Bending range 10 to 100 kN
• Complies to EN 196-1, 459-2, 1744-1, 1015-11, 13459-2, ASTM C109, BS 3892-1, 4551-1, EN/ISO 679
Frame
• Rigid load frame in 2-column construction
• The columns are screwed free from play to the machine’s upper and lower blocks
• Suitable for testing 40×40×40, 50×50×50 mm cube and a different size of core cylinder samples
• Upper platen spherically seated to allow an inclination up to 3° for homogenous loading
• Given with corrosion-resistant distance platens for different size samples (10 mm, 20 mm, 50 mm, 80 mm)
• All transmission surfaces are additionally plane – parallel – treated and fine machined
• Lower platen marked to allow centering of both cubes and cylinders
• Safety door switch for secure operations
• Piston limit switch for secure operations
• At the end of the test process to start a new test the piston returns to the default position
Load measurement and control
• Load measurement and control is carried out with a loadcell with a sensitivity of class 1 or better according to EN-ISO-7500-1 standard.
Control Unit and Display:
• Fully automatic compression test machine with close-loop “Sematron Touch Series” advanced controller
• Controller has 1000 Hz (1 kHz) data acquisition-processing and automatic calibration feature (2,5 kHz option is available)
• Controller has 2 channels but can be extendable up to 8 channels
• Automatic user-defined pace rate adjustment with high accuracy
• Users can hold the load at any desired point for a specific time
• Linux based 10 inch LCD touch screen with built-in test software
• Fast response real-time graphic display
• Automatic Calibration feature for all connected sensors
• Users can perform Module of Elasticity tests according to different standards. (This option need Displacement Sensors to read strain)
