UNIVERSAL STRENGTH MACHINE (Hydraulic)
Description
Universal Strength Machine (Hydraulic)
The Versatile Universal Strength Machine (Hydraulic) is a professional foundry testing machine for ggreen sand, hot box sand, cold box sand, resin coated sand, no-bake sand, oil sand, co2 sand. It is engineered for accurate, repeatable sand testing on the lab bench and shop floor.
Application
The equipment is used to determine various strengths, such as compression, shear, tensile, transverse and deformation, of foundry sand. Strength Measurement range: Low pressure gauge â?? 1) Compression-0 to 1600gms/cm2, 2) Shear -0 to 1300 gms/cm2, 3) Tensile- 0 to 6 kg/cm2 4) Transverse-0 to 60 kg/cm2 High pressure gauge – 1) Compression-0 to 13 kg/cm2, 2) Shear -0 to 10 kg/cm2, 3) Tensile- 0 to 50 kg/cm2 4) Transverse-0 to 500 kg/cm2 With High Dry Strength Attachment (VUH): 1) Compression -20-200 kg/cm2.
Key features
