The Automatic Consolidation Device is designed for fully automated execution of one-dimensional consolidation and swell tests in accordance with international standards. The system ensures high accuracy, repeatability, and efficiency in soil compressibility evaluation.
Combines servo-controlled loading with real-time data acquisition to perform incremental consolidation, constant rate of strain, swelling, CHG, and optional unconfined compression tests without manual intervention.
Available in 10 kN, 20 kN, and 50 kN configurations, offering flexibility for a broad range of specimen stiffness and expected load profiles.
Utilizes closed-loop PID control and precision transducers for reliable application and monitoring of axial displacement and load.
Features compact, bench-top design with integrated actuators and modular electronics, eliminating the need for dead weights or hydraulic systems.
Supports networked operation with USB connectivity for centralized control, and includes touchscreen interface for standalone use.
Compatible with Windows-based software for automated test management, result plotting, and report generation in multiple international formats.
Includes test cells for 50 mm diameter samples as standard, with options for alternative specimen sizes and back-pressure saturation.
