GENERAL UTILITY - Standard Automatic compression testers for cubes and cylinders WIZARD AUTO

WIZARD AUTO is CONTROLS new standard automatic Quality Control machine for compression and flexural testing and includes many new features and enhancements to improve the user-friendliness, efficiency, operator comfort and energy savings.

QC testing performance has just taken a step change improvement with CONTROLS abandoning manual test control and now features automatic closed-loop PID control of loading-rate using VFD inverter-technology control of the high specification AC motor.

Wizard Auto automatically and accurately performs tests at the correct test speed, ensuring compliance to Standards and with no effect due to operator variables.

Mainly dedicated to routine failure tests (compression, flexure and indirect tensile), WIZARD AUTO is the perfect solution to ensure total certainty of testing accuracy and strict conformity to international Standards. In fact being an automatic system it allows:

• Reduced opportunities for operator errors, improving accuracy of results and repeatability
• Easy-to-use: even for operators with limited expertise.
• Conforming to Standards: the machine automatically performs the test at correct test speed. Conformance to Standards can be easily proven.
• High performance: high speed pump closes the daylight above the specimen at the fasted speed allowing a very high throughput of tests.
• Operator comfort due to the significant noise reduction.
• Energy saving, with 50% reduction in energy consumption.

Main features include:

• Rigid welded steel construction
• Accuracy Class 1/A (EN/ASTM) starting from 10% of full scale (from 1% on request)
• Two channels for load sensors
• Wide graphic display 128 x 80 pixel
• Graphic printer available as option
• AC motor fitted with VFD INVERTER device: high efficiency, low consumption, silent operation
• Dual stage pump for fast approach and automatic switch to high pressure for loading
• Second frame optional facility

Rigid welded steel construction. Spherical seat allows free alignment at the initial contact with the specimen.

See table. Traceable certificate of surface hardness available on request.

Includes: Max. pressure valve to avoid machine overloading; piston travel limit switch; emergency stop button; front and rear flexible transparent fragment guard.
