The new automatic testers which combine high productivity with Energy Saving

ASTM C39 | AASHTO 22 | ASTM C140 | ASTM C1314
  • Automatic test cycle. Correct test execution according to selected Standards, is continuously and automatically controlled. See additional information.
  • Dual user interface display and PC
  • Accuracy Class 1 (EN) and Class A (ASTM) starting from 10% of full scale. On request from 1% with special calibration procedure. See upgrading options.
  • Compatible with the new, intuitive and smart DATA MANAGER Software. Very easy to use, complete with many functions, totally flexible, open to network comunications
  • Adopt the latest ES Energy Saving technologies. For reduction of power consumption and silent operation
  • Double stage hydraulic pump with rapid approach and precise oil flow control. Allowing high throughput of accurate tests (up to 40 per hour)
  • Soft platen-to-specimen contact and smooth load rate control from the very beginning of the ramp
  • Optional control of a second frame. Active frame selection via manual lever.
  • Optional internal graphic printer including Load-Time plot
  • Allow remote verification of settings and performances. For easy debugging of unexpected malfunctions
  • Recording facility of up to 10 test profiles for each channel allowing quick and easy test start
This new generation of Compact-Line Automatic compression testers, adopting the innovative CVI TECH concept, is the result of our continuous application and research to upgrade testing machines with the last technologies, taking into account client requirements and International Standards. The machine consists essentially of the following parts:
 
Frame
The 335’000 lbs (1500 kN), 450’000 lbs (2000kN) and 660’000 (3000 kN) models series 50-A12Cxx, 50-A22Cxx and 50-C39Cxx feature high stiffness welded steel construction exceeding ACI 363R specifications. Spherical seat allows initial free alignment at the initial contact with the specimen and automatic jamming up to the end of test.
