Table Top Cyclic Triaxial Testing System

The new developed cyclic tabletop electromechanical closed-loop controlled triaxial load frames are characterized by their high accuracy for stress-strain triaxial tests with static and cyclic automatic loading possibilities up to 10kN and 10Hz.

The cyclic actuator is placed on upper traverse and has dedicated dynamic controller to run all cyclic loads required for different applications. The upper traverse can be adjusted per as the size of triaxial cell or other test applications.

The test apparatus is suitable for compression and extension tests with isotropic or anisotropic consolidation and covering whole testing applications and comply with international standards.
