About Universal Extruder Frame Hydraulic
Specification:
Universal Extruder Frame Hydraulic
A universal extruder frame hydraulic spec typically describes a soil mechanics testing apparatus that uses a hydraulic jack with a 50kN capacity to extract soil cores from molds, often including accessories for various mold sizes (e.g., 4", 6", 38mm, 50mm, 75mm) and adjustable thrust plates for different specimen diameters. The system is used for soil classification by consistency and determines properties like unconfined compressive strength and shear strength.
Key Components & Specifications
-
Hydraulic Jack:
A hand-operated hydraulic jack is mounted on the frame, providing the force for extruding soil samples.
-
Capacity:
The jack usually has a capacity of 50kN.
-
Frame:
A sturdy frame supports the jack and provides a platform for the soil molds. The frame often has a stable, H-shaped structure for support.
-
Plungers & Adapters:
The system includes plungers and adapters for different mold or specimen diameters (e.g., 4"/100mm, 6"/150mm, 38mm, 50mm, 75mm).
-
Thrust Plate:
An adjustable thrust plate ensures proper seating of the soil sample within the mold.
- Soil Testing: This hydraulic extruder is designed for soil mechanics applications.
- Sample Preparation: It is used to extrude soil samples from cylindrical molds, preparing them for other tests.
- Strength Testing: The extruded soil core can be used for unconfined compressive strength (UCS) and shear strength tests.
Superior Frame and Hydraulic PowerConstructed from high-tensile steel and finished with a protective powder coat, the extruder frame ensures long-term durability. The hydraulic system, featuring a 100 mm piston and 60-liter oil tank (Grade 46), delivers steady force for reliable testing up to 500 kN. Its heavy-duty structure supports industrial use and frequent sample testing.
Precision Testing and Digital ControlsDesigned for accurate material analysis, the equipment utilizes a strain gauge load cell, offering 1% accuracy and 0.01 kN resolution. The digital LCD display with response time below 1 second simplifies data monitoring. With RS232 and USB interfaces, results can be conveniently exported for further evaluation.
Advanced Safety and Calibration FeaturesOperators benefit from integrated emergency stop and overload protection, ensuring safe operation under varied test loads. The system comes pre-calibrated for immediate use, minimizing setup time. The semi-automatic control mode further streamlines material testing, making it suitable for industrial environments.
