50 and 100 kN Bench Machines for CBR, Marshall, Multipurpose Compression and Flexure Testing on Asphalt, Soil, Rocks, Mortar, Groundcement and Cement
CONTROLS range includes a series of small and compact compression machines that can be used for several tests:
- CBR tests on soils;
- Marshall tests on asphalt;
- uniaxial and unconfined tests on soils and rocks;
- compression tests on low stregth concrete, cement and groundcement samples;
- flexure tests on beams, mortar, tiles and any other compression or flexure test performed under displacement and/or load closed loop control within machine capacity.
Each machine can be selected depending on type of test and material:
- MULTISPEED machines are generally used for CBR, Marshall and displacement control tests (see basic and advanced MULTISPEED testing machines);
- UNIFRAME machines are generally used when load rate control is also required (see compact andlarge UNIFRAME also for Complete description).
See the table below to select your preferred machine depending on the test typically performed:
