Three-Column Compression Testing Machine – 3000 kN
Manufactured by 3R Industries
This three-column compression test machine offers an excellent compromise between footprint and performance for high-capacity concrete testing.
It has a maximum testing force of 3000 kN, with exceptional stiffness (deformation less than 0,75 mm at 3000 kN) and a very long guided cylinder.
The perfect geometric shape (isostatic), guarantees ideally centred load application on the specimen axis (perfect alignment of the cylinder axis with the ball joint axis) in accordance with standard EN 12 390-4.
