Description of Product

This stand-alone model features microprocessor control and a high-resolution stepper motor with epicyclical reduction gear for reduced backlash. A pneumatic closed-loop system with high-performance pressure regulator automatically applies axial pressure, removing the need for manual dead weight loading. The shear box carriage is constructed from high-quality technopolymeric material, providing excellent resistance to corrosion, wear and chemicals. It is lightweight and easy to clean.

Features

 

● 3600r/min for efficient solvent extraction.

● Microprocessor-based "Automax" control unit with scratchproof polycarbon front panel and graphic display.

● Comes with bi-directional load cells (5KN, ±0.15% accuracy) and high-resolution displacement transducers (0.001mm resolution).

● Automatically applies unlimited preset consolidation steps and manages test progression until failure.

Eliminates need for heavy dead weights and balance lever arm, with vertical force applied directly without friction.

● Supports multiple shear speeds and reverse travel for residual shear tests.

● Axial force can be applied instantaneously or via linear ramp over preset time.

● Independent data recording modes for consolidation and failure stages.

● RS232 serial port for data downloading.

● Brass shear box assemblies with rigid walled square or round hole, includes loading pad, retaining plate and porous stones.

● Software modules include acquisition, consolidation, standard shear, quick shear, with optional repeated shear and post-processing.
