Concrete Compression Frame: 500,000lbf Auto, Flexural Machine, Rigid

500,000lbf Auto Concrete Compression, Flexural Machine, Rigid Frame

500,000lbf Auto Concrete Compression and Flexural Machine with a Rigid Frame is designed for the modern concrete testing laboratory. Built for precision and durability this heavy duty machine is the efficient solution for testing the compressive and flexural strength of concrete specimens to industry standards.

The rigid frame minimizes deformation under load and can handle up to 500,000 lbf making it suitable for a wide range of testing applications from research and development to quality control in production environments. The auto operation removes the complexity from the test procedure so you can test with minimal user intervention. The touch screen interface makes setup and monitoring of tests easy with real time data and detailed reporting for analysis.

Features

• Frames built to withstand heavy daily testing and high strength mixes

• Real time display of force, stress and load rate throughout the test cycle

• Advanced drive system for precise control of force and load rate using machine feedback

• Data transfer via USB, LAN ports or Wi-Fi

• Minimal operator involvement—just position the specimen and start the test cycleThe frames are made of a rigid welded steel structure, spherical seat, and compression platens with the upper platen having certification and traceable certificate options. The machine is available as standalone frames or general utility standalone frames suitable for testing cubes and cylinders, blocks and cement specimens. The hydraulic system has a high capacity piston as a critical component for precise load application and the machine is compatible with platens for various specimen sizes including mm dia and specific dia options. The compression frame conforms to EN standards and other international standards with a traceable certificate and hardness certificate for the upper platen included or available upon request. Multiple models are available with cap options up to 2000 kN and 3000 kN and a technical specifications table is provided for more information. Optional accessories include flexible plastic fragment guards, rigid front door, pedestal and connection kits and a door for safety.

The advanced hydraulic system ensures smooth operation and precise load application with the piston as a critical component and high quality sensors for consistent and reliable results. The machine has safety features such as overload protection, emergency stop mechanisms, flexible plastic fragment guards and a rigid front door for operator safety during testing. The solid steel construction not only makes the machine durable but also stable for accurate test results.

With the ability for various specimen shapes and sizes including cubes and cylinders the 500,000lbf Auto Concrete Compression and Flexural Machine is a must have for any materials laboratory. Its performance, reliability and user friendly design makes it an essential tool for civil engineers, construction and materials scientists for rigorous quality assurance and research.

The rigid welded steel structure of modern compression frames provides unmatched stability and durability with minimal deformation during high load testing. This solid construction is complemented by a separate control console where operators can manage and monitor the testing process.

General utility compression frames are very versatile and can accommodate various specimen types and sizes. With suitable distance pieces and various compression platens these frames can be quickly adjusted to cubes and blocks of different dimensions. Automatic controllers further enhance the testing process allowing fully automated operation, precise data acquisition. These controllers can be programmed to follow specific test methods for consistency and traceability in every result.

To support diverse testing needs a range of machine accessories are available including pedestals, rigid front doors and distance pieces. Testing platens surfaces are supplied with hardness certificates for traceable documentation of their quality and long term reliability. Whether testing concrete cylinders up to 320 mm in diameter or testing blocks and cubes these machines and accessories are must have for laboratories and construction professionals. Their accuracy, reliability and adaptability makes them the cornerstone of concrete testing and quality control.
