Floor Type Cyclic Triaxial Testing System (Electromechanical)

This Electromechanical Floor Type Cyclic Triaxial Testing System is useful for many applications in geotechnical testing and comes with different load capacities and frequencies. The Wide column spacing enables it to accommodate large cells even with environmental chambers and furnaces and has a higher load capacity than table top version.

It comes in two different models:

1) Floor type combined static and cyclic load up to 25kN-10Hz

2) Twin type load frame (independent cyclic-static actuators) up to 150kN static load and 10kN-10Hz cyclic load.

This Twin solution is for the time at which a need of a high static load in combination with standard cyclic load is required for different tests in laboratory and in one frame. Per as several advantages of the electromechanical system to Hydraulic loading frames, this series of machines can meet most of the test requirements in the lab.
