600 kN Capacity Flexural Frame Four Column Type

UTEST 600 kN capacity Flexural Frame is designed for minimum deflection at maximum load resulting in very high accuracy. The load frame is a four column design  carrying the ram fitted to the upper crosshead. The frames has a double acting stroking ram with over travel switch protection to shut the machine down when maximum ram travel is reached. A load cell is used for load measurements on the  frame.

Standard: EN 1338, 1339, 1340, 12390-5, 12390-6; ASTM C78, C293, C496

UTEST 600 kN capacity Flexural Frame is designed to accept all accessories required for flexural, splitting tensile or compression tests. The equipment to place the specimens in the frame should be ordered separately. The load frame provides the stability needed for accurate and repeatable test results over the years of operation.

UTEST 600 kN capacity Flexural Frame can be connected to any UTEST compression machine as a second frame or can be used with any UTEST power pack as an independent Flexural Machine.

The main characteristics are:

• High stability four column design
• 350 mm piston stroke with safety limit switch
• High accuracy load measurement with strain gauge load cells
• Can accept wide range of accessories for mentioned standards
• Can be connected to any UTEST compression machine or UTEST power pack

Test assemblies such as:

• Flexture strength test of concrete beam(UTC-5501), kerb( UTC-5502) and flagstone(UTC-5504),
• Indirect tensile strength test of paving block (UTC-0355 and UTC-5510)),
• Splitting tensile strength test of concrete cubes (UTC-0360)and cylinders (UTC-0350),
• Compression strength test of any construction material ( UTCM-4116 and distance pieces  UTC-4630, UTC-4631, UTC-4633 and UTC-4634) should be ordered separately.
