Technical notes

  • Load/unload electrovalve for test execution via display/PC and automatic stop at specimen failure
  • 7”, 800 x 480 pixel, 16 M colours, icon-driven capacitative sensing touchscreen graphic display
  • Wi-Fi or GSM module available as option
  • Firmware
  • Execution of compression, flexure, indirect tensile, ACV tests in automatic mode with load rate controlled by a closed-loop P.I.D. system
  • Execution of loading ramps with the possibility to manually increase or decrease the test speed during the test
  • Possibility to reach at controlled speed a load target and to keep a steady loading phase.
  • Saving of the specimen failure type (to EN or ASTM) in the test results
  • Download data to internal printer (optional) or to PC via RS 232 port or to USB memory stick
  • PC / network communication via Ethernet
  • Multi-coefficient linearization of the calibration curve for better accuracy at low loads thus avoiding the use of a second pressure transducer
  • Improved PID algorithm and Multi PID selection. Up to 3 different PID settings can be tuned for a variety of materials (ACV, flexure, compression with neoprene pads, etc.)
  • Compatible with the newly released Data nmanager software, tailored for construction material testing laboratories, for real-time data acquisition, display and management
  • Peripheral devices integration and web services available as option (see page…)
  • Automatic load measurement verification procedure, by connecting suitable load cells and our digital readout unit to PC
  • Language selection (including Cyrillic and Chinese)
  • Unit selection (kN, ton, lbf)
  • USB port for firmware upgrade and safe backup of the original configuration data (PID, calibration, etc.), in case of loss and/or data corruption. The restore of the machine to the factory settings is easy avoiding the need of any technical support.

Features

  • The AUTOMAX PRO is quick and simple to operate, even for operators with limited expertise. The easy to use high definition graphical interface based on tablet and smart-phone display technology includes handy features such as graphical failure type, specimen geometry, and access to the latest testing standards.
  • Standard testing features include: rapid approach, soft-touch test start, initial pause for specimen alignment, height/diameter correction factor, final calculation of effective load rate applied, peak sensitivity expressed in percentage, and saving of specimen failure type image.
  • Fully automatic – time saving: Full test-cycle automation maximizes productivity and ensures tests are performed accurately according to pre-set methods, eliminating operator variables.
  • Highly accurate and energy saving: Our DC motor technology quietly and efficiently delivers super accurate load control at both low-speed and low-loads.
  • Intuitive, quick and simple operation: The integrated control system features an intuitive 7” color graphical display, which works like a tablet or smart-phone, and makes AUTOMAX PRO quick and simple to operate.
  • Standards compliant – peace of mind: Hardware and firmware are in total compliance with all the main international concrete testing standards including AS1012.9 and EN 12390-3
  • Pioneering web services: WEBCARE Remote Assistance will enable connection to your testing system for remote technical support whilst the i-LAB cloud-based services will allow sharing of your data with authorized 3rd parties, including real time viewing of the test.
  • Huge boost in efficiency and error elimination: LinK-LAB – Integrated testing station solution for seamless connection and data inputs from many ancillary devices for dimensional measurement, weight, bar code, etc.
