Determination of Strength

600 kN automatic compression machine with pressure transducer C92W02
 
Compressive strength is the main mechanical property to be checked. Flexural strength, also called Modulus of Rupture (MOR), is particularly important when the mixture is to be used for pavements, flagstone, kerbs and other element subjected to tensile loads. Taking into consideration the relatively low values of failure loads and load rates, it is crucial to use automatic testing machines to achieve highly accurate results that are reliable and repeatable.

600 kN automatic compression machine with pressure transducer C92W02
Description

 

These Multipurpose compression / flexure testers have been designed for various applications in which a limited maximum load is requested, together with a large testing space. They are suitable to determinate compressive strength on lightweight concrete, soil-cement specimen, high strength cement and refractory. 
The large testing space is ideal for performing, with the suitable accessory, splitting tests and flexural tests on concrete specimens. The pedestal is not included and has to be ordered separately. See accessories.

They are available in the two different versions:

 

single compression station, 500 kN or 600 kN cap.:
for compression tests on low strength specimens. The Class 1 accuracy can be extended from 1% of testing machine full scale with special calibration procedures (see Technical Specifications).
 
double station model, 600/15 kN cap.:
extends the possible applications to flexural tests on cement and com­pression tests on low strength specimens. The Class 1 accuracy can be extendedwith special calibration procedures (see Technical Specifications).

Frames and compression platens
