Piston Diameter	35 mm
Piston Area	9.60 cm Square
Dimension	380Ãƒ€”300Ãƒ€”620 mm
Weight	85 Kg

Rugged and Portable Design

Engineered with heavy-duty mild steel and finished with a powder-coated layer, this apparatus is built for demanding environments. Its portable configuration and convenient carrying case enable straightforward transport and setup across sites, assisting geotechnical professionals in both laboratory and on-site applications.

Efficient Rock Strength Testing

Perform fast, reliable point load tests within just 23 minutes per sample. The hydraulic jack and hardened steel loading pads ensure consistent application of force up to 100 kN, while the included calibration certificate certifies test accuracy to international standards (IS:8764 / ASTM D5731).

Simple Manual Operation and Maintenance

With its manual operation and analog dial gauge, the Point Load Test Machine demands no electricity or complex setup. Maintenance is minimal, thanks to sturdy materials and straightforward design, enabling professionals to focus on sample analysis rather than equipment upkeep.

FAQs of Point Load Test Machine:

Q: How do I operate the Point Load Test Machine for a standard rock strength test?

A: Begin by securing your rock sample (up to 100 mm diameter) between the hardened steel loading pads. Adjust the jaw opening (up to 150 mm) as needed using the loading handle. Gradually apply force with the hydraulic jack until failure occurs, noting the peak load on the analog dial gauge. Each test typically takes 23 minutes.

Q: What types of samples and testing applications is this device suitable for?

A: This machine is ideal for geotechnical laboratories, civil engineering, and mining applications. It accommodates cylindrical or irregular rock core samples up to 100 mm in diameter for quick determination of point load strength, commonly used in geological investigations and classification.

Q: When and where should I use the Point Load Test Machine?

A: Use this device during field or laboratory testing phases of geotechnical investigations, site characterization, and mining explorations. Its portable design and carrying case make it practical for on-site evaluations as well as controlled laboratory environments.

Q: What accessories are included with the machine?

A: The Point Load Test Machine comes supplied with spacer blocks, a durable carrying case for portability, and a calibration certificate ensuring measurement reliability and compliance with IS:8764 / ASTM D5731.

Q: What are the benefits of this machines manual operation and construction materials?

A: Manual operation means no need for external power sources, ensuring portability and flexibility. The use of heavy-duty mild steel and stainless steel fittings, along with a powder-coated finish, delivers long-lasting durability and minimal maintenance requirements.

Q: How accurate are the measurements, and how is calibration ensured?

A: The analog dial gauge ensures measurement accuracy within 1% of full scale. Each unit includes a calibration certificate verifying compliance with relevant standards, guaranteeing reliable and precise test results.
