| This machine is designed with four columns loading frame is overdimensioned to assure high rigidity and stability. The loading piston, double action, is rectified and lapped. The piston is foreseen of an hydraulic maximum and minimum piston stroke’s security device, by avoiding any damage risk due to wrong manipulations of the unit. An hydraulic selector allows to select the tensile or the compression test.
The heads holding the jaws are obtained from only one block of high tungsten steel, while the jaws are hardened over 65 This machine is utilized to carry out tensile tests on steel reinforced bars from diameter 6 to 25 mm and flat maximun It can also carry out compression tests on concrete cube specimens maximum side 150 mm. and cylinders maximum diameter 160×320 mm. The machine is supplied with pair of jaw-holders, but without accessoires for the tensile and compression tests, which must be ordered separately . Maximum tensile load: 500 kN |
