Description
The ACE EmS is a versatile and fully automatic Oedometer soil consolidation testing machine that comes loaded with the new environmentally friendly Electromechanical Servoactuation (EmS) technology. Silent, compact and highly performing, the ACE EmS testing system can be run with our ingenious software that can connect up to 60 units with just one PC, enabling you to expand your laboratory gradually and seamlessly.
Oedometric soil test description
The Oedometric test determines the rate and magnitude of soil consolidation when restrained laterally and loaded axially.
Fully automatic
The ACE EmS can complete the whole test in fully automatic mode by selecting the load (stress), offering a practical and accurate way to obtain reliable results without any need for manual intervention, reducing the risk of human error.
Totally new and ingenious software

Totally new and ingenious software
- Can pilot up to 60 ACE EmS units from one single PC with user able to select single or multiple unit batches.
- Once the software is installed and linked to the first ACE EmS, it is easy to add more units by enabling the associated LAN communication (IP address) without complications or costs.
- Calibrations of displacement transducers and load cells are stored as txt file and easy to recall, up to 10 calibration points can be recorded for each channel.
Clarity in results
- Oedometer test results are saved and displayed in real-time, speeding data capture.
- Results are then processed using Wykeham Farrance (WF)’s easy-to-use Geo-Analysis templates, written by experts around international standards allowing you to concentrate on analyzing your materials; not on programing your testing machine.
Interchangeable consolidations cells
- Standard WF consolidation cells from 50.47 to 112.80mm dia. normally used with front loading oedometer can also be used with the ACE EmS.
