The
automatic range of 3000 kn capacity Automatic digital compression
testing machine has been designed to meet the need for reliable and
consistent testing of concrete samples.all labtest machines feature the
complete automatic test cycle with a closed loop digital readout. Once
the specimen parameters have been introduced, it is sufficient to press
the start button to complete the test. Automatic digital compression
testing machine consist of their main parts: frame, power pack and data
acquisition & control system. Each part has been designed to
manufacture machines with a high degree of mechanical stability and
complies to EN 12390-4, BS 1881 and ASTM C39 (with suitable platen set)
Standards:

Frame:
The Automatic digital compression testing machine load frame is a
welded steel fabrication carrying the ball-seated upper platen.
Positively located on the loading ram which is protected from debris by a
cover, the lower platen is marked for the centering of cube and
cylinder specimens. The dimensions of the frame allow the testing of
concrete cylinders up to 320 mm long x 160 mm diameter; 100, 150 mm
cubes. All machines are supplied complete with 30 mm, 50mm and 90 mm
distance pieces. To test samples shorter than 150 mm extra distance
pieces should be ordered. All machines are supplied with flexi glass
front and rear removable safety doors. All frames have a single acting
upstroking ram with over travel protection to stop the motor when the
maximum platen travel be reached.
The Main Characteristics Are:
High stability welded assembly
50 mm piston stroke with safety limit switch
Platen hardness of min 55 HRC
Distance pieces and safety door included
Ball seating assembly and frame tested for stability
Data Acquisition And Control System:
Lcd graphics data acquisition and controls system is designed to
control the Automatic digital compression testing machine and processing
of data from load cells or pressure transducers installed on the
compression machine frame. The easy to read lcd graphic display and
touch-button data pad keys make the unit quick and straight forward to
operate. All interactions with the measuring system are via the front
control panel by using simple menu-driven procedures. The bc100 is
contained in light alloy housing and its design satisfies the ergonomic
requirements for various use. The bc100 digital graphic display allows
real time load vs time graph. At the end of the test cycle, the results
can be stored in the large memory or downloaded to a PC in Labtest
software format. Dedicated software package is available for further
online data processing, database management and certificate printing.
The Main Characteristics are:
High resolution 65.000 points
240 x 120 pixel blue-white graphic lcd display
Standalone full automatic testing capacity
CPU card by microprocessor 32 bit arm risk architecture
Can make manual tests if required
Large permanent memory up to 256 test results
Rs232c (optional ethernet) connection at 57600 band
One RS232 serial port for connecting either PC or printer for data transmission
Two analogical channels, use for load cell or pressure transduce
A sample type and dimensions can be entered respect to the standard
18 key touch membrane keyboard
Easy to operate with 6 main function keys
Language select: English
Can control two frames (Compression & Flexural)
Power Pack: Dual stage
power pack which is controlled by is designed to supply required oil to
the frames. Very silent Power pack can load a specimen between 1 kn/ sec
to 20 kN/sec. On the dual stage pump high delivery low pressure pump is
used for rapid approach and low delivery high pressure radial piston
pump is used for test execution. On all power packs maximum pressure
valve is used to avoid machine overloading.
The Main Characteristics are:
Dual stage pump
750 W power
25 liter oil capacity
60-100 mm/min fast approach speed
Safety Features: All Automatic digital compression testing machine are fitted with:
Max pressure valve to avoid machine overloading
Ram travel switch to prevent excessive piston travel
Front and rear gates with transparent durable flexiglass
Emergency stop button
Software controlled maximum load value
Capacity
2000kN
