This model is similar to EKE28.610 with the exception of Pneumatic Actuator in place of Hydraulic actuator, thus making system more compact (Hydraulic Power Pack is not required) with a maximum test frequency up to 2Hz only.


The main parts of the system are:

• Load Frame with Pneumatic Actuator
• Triaxial Cell with accessories
• Automatic Pressure system with Compressor and De-airing system
• PC based Control system and Application Software
• Signal Conditioning and Controlling Unit with Transducers
• Computer for Controlling and Data acquisition
• Control & Analysis software

Pneumatic Actuator for Cyclic Loading:

• Actuator is a linear motion device, which gives a controlled motion either on stress basis or strain basis. It is a precision piece of equipment which follows the command from the wave generator through the servo valve.

Load Frame:

• Loading Frame is free standing two pillar type unit. It has a base and a cross head with fitted actuator along with servo valve. Cross head carrying the Pneumatic Actuator for conducting dynamic tests is movable on threaded columns to adjust the height of the sample. Arrangement is also provided for locking of the crosshead at any desired position. Static and dynamic loading would be fully computer controlled. It can accom- modate Triaxial cell for sample sizes up to 100mm diameter & 200mm height.
