Concrete Test Hammers
Original Schmidt Live Type L Concrete Test Hammer
The Original Schmidt Live Type L Concrete Test Hammer is the ultimate tool for accurate, repeatable, and efficient concrete strength estimation and uniformity assessment. Designed with advanced technology and innovative features, it provides unmatched precision and usability in the field. Ideal for testing cross-sections thinner than 4 inches (100mm) or impact-sensitive structural components, the Type L offers an impact energy that is one-third that of the Type N model, while maintaining the same compressive strength range.
Equipped with the Schmidt Live digital platform, this test hammer enhances productivity by eliminating manual data recording and calculations. Rebound value, number of impacts, impact angle, and series ID are automatically recorded and calculated for maximum efficiency. The Schmidt Live app (available on iOS and Android) enables seamless data management, real-time sharing via Bluetooth, and integration with a web-based reporting tool. Additional features such as GPS positioning, notes, and multimedia comments further streamline report generation, making it a truly modern solution for concrete testing.
Whether you need a fully digital solution or prefer a hybrid approach with analog functionality, the Schmidt Live Type L is versatile and adaptable to your needs.
Key Features:
- Lightweight Design: A durable fiber-reinforced shell reduces weight and improves ergonomics, ensuring comfort during extended usage.
- Automatic Impact Angle Correction: Results are automatically corrected for the impact angle to provide precise measurements.
- Built-In Statistics: Stores ASTM or user-defined statistics in the hammer for instant rebound number calculations.
- High Memory Capacity: Can store up to 2,000 measurement series, allowing extensive data collection without interruptions.
- Wide Application Range: Effective on concrete with compressive strengths ranging from 1,450 to 10,152 psi (10 to 70 MPa).
- Digital and Analog Functionality: Offers the flexibility to operate as either a digital or analog hammer, depending on your testing requirements.
- Voice Feedback: Provides text-to-speech feedback on Apple iOS devices for hands-free operation.
- Seamless Reporting: Generates and exports reports in .pdf or .csv formats, making it easy to share results with team members.
- Automatic Calibration Tracking: Ensures reliable, consistent performance over time without the need for constant manual adjustments.
- Mobile App Integration: The Schmidt Live app enables GPS tracking, adding notes, images, and audio comments to reports for comprehensive documentation.
