Automatic CBR Test Apparatus

Automatic CBR Test Apparatus

Product Code : EL-STLE-10377

Quick Answer: The Automatic CBR Test Apparatus is a computer-controlled laboratory machine used to determine the CBR value of highway subbases and sub-grade materials and to evaluate the strength of cohesive materials with maximum particle sizes less than 19 mm (3/4"). It uses a robust two column frame with an adjustable upper crossbeam driven by an electro-mechanical ram of up to 50 kN capacity, loading the penetration piston into the soil sample at a constant, digitally controlled rate between 0.5 mm/min and 5 mm/min while its data acquisition system automatically calculates the corrected CBR value at 2.5 mm and 5 mm penetration. The machine can run tests complying to BS, EN, ASTM or AASHTO standards and is supplied complete with a 50 kN load cell, penetration piston, linear potentiometric displacement transducer, and control software; a PC is optional.
The automatic CBR test machine is designed for performing laboratory evaluation of the CBR value of highway subbases and sub-grade, and determination of the strength of cohesive materials which have maximum particle sizes less than 19 mm (3/4"). This CBR apparatus is composed of a robust and compact two column frame with adjustable upper crossbeam driven by an electro-mechanical ram with a maximum capacity of 50 kn and a data acquisition and processing system.
The machine is designed to load the penetration piston into the soil sample at a constant rate to measure the applied load and piston penetration at predetermined intervals, with the ram speed set between 0.5 mm/min to 5 mm/min by using the digital readout unit. This main feature allows the user to perform tests complying to BS, EN, ASTM or AASHTO standards with the same machine, and rapid adjustment of the platen is also provided by up and down buttons which are located on the front panel of the machine.
The machine is supplied complete with a 50 kN load cell, penetration piston, linear potentiometric displacement transducer (25 mm x 0.001 mm), computer software and connection cable. PC is optional.

Main Features:
Calculates corrected CBR value at 2.5 and 5 mm.
The digital unit saves the load value at user defined displacement values such as 0.625, 1.25, 1.875, 2.5, 3.75, 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5 mm.
The load corresponds to the displacements corrected respect to the linear region of the data has also saved.
The % CBR at 2.5 mm and % CBR at 5 mm is also automatically calculated and saved.
Can make test with displacement and limited load control.
