EDOMEC-Automatic Consolidation Apparatus

Product Code : S261

Standards: BS 1377:5, ASTM D2435, D3877, D4546, AASHTO T216, NF P94-090-1, NF P94-09

This automatic consolidation system, ideal for modern and efficient laboratories, has been developed to eliminate or reduce to the absolute minimum any forms of manual intervention, which the oedometer test. This machine has innovative technology for controlling the application of loads. The load application system is guaranteed by a sophisticated PID electromechanical system. It is able to control load very accurately, thanks to the high frequency control up to 1KHz. This allows high precision at low loads, high speed of load application at high loads. The test is configured using a special test icon, in which it is possible to set loads and acquisition times; both the loads and the acquisition times are freely configurable. The large display makes it easy to visualize test data and graphs.
