Four-Column Long Stroke Compression Testing Machine – 2000 kN

Four-Column Long Stroke Compression Testing Machine – 2000 kN

Manufactured by 3R Industries

Designed for civil engineering testing labs needing to perform tests on both blocks and cylinders, this QC/LC frame (Four Columns / Long Stroke) has a testing force of 2000 kN (3000 kN and 4000 kN models are also available).

The QC/LC frames feature a cylinder with 200mm strike, enabling testing on both blocks and cylinders without the need to handle spacers, optimising both lab time and productivity.

Similarly, this particularly rigid frame, whose 4-column structure allows the passage of large platens (310mm wide) offers superb working ergonomics.

The height of the lower platen (980 mm) provides the user with optimum working comfort, limiting back problems.

Benefits

  • Fully machined 4-column frame, controlled with foot meter.
  • Enables testing on large parts or blocks with excellent stability and load distribution.
  • Doesn’t require the use of spacers, which are heavy and often difficult to centre.
  • No adjustment required or time loss when switching from one test to another.
  • Workstation ergonomics have been carefully designed by confining the test chamber with stainless steel protective cheeks.
  • Transparent guarding enclosing the test area.
  • Rotating chute to guide debris toward a bucket placed at the foot of the machine, again saving time.
  • Designed in compliance with European standards.
  • Spherical seat in treated steel coated with Teflon for optimal load distribution.
  • Treated steel platens – Hardness ≥ 600 HV30.
  • Test chamber height: 340 mm.
  • Ergonomic 980 mm working height means fewer back problems.
  • Cylinder: Low-friction composite seal and bronze guidance, stroke 200 mm.
  • Mechanical centering device for quick and precise specimen positioning.
  • Stainless steel protective grid with electrical safety detector.
  • Base designed for easy handling with forklift, so you can easily move the compression test machine from A to B.
