COMPACT-Line Concrete Compression Machines
EN 12390-4 | ASTM C39 | AASHTO T22 | ASTM C109 | ASTM C349 | EN 196 | NZS 3112.2:1986 | AS 1012.9:2014 | AS/NZS 4456:2003
We strongly recommend CONTROLS fully automatic compression machines to our customers.
The fully automatic system means that even inexperienced operators can perform tests because the load pacing is always correct, which in turn makes the results very consistent.

The innovative new approach from CONTROLS now allows PILOT Pro, AUTOMAX PRO and AUTOMAX Multitest to be a fully integrated and “connected” part of your laboratory infrastructure with the ability to seamlessly take inputs from any number of ancillary measuring systems and devices to further increase efficiency and eliminate transposing errors.
Compatible direct-input devices include dimensional measuring stations, calipers, weighing systems, ID barcode readers and video cameras (Enterprise version only). The new K-LAB laboratory peripheral devices integration package is available in two versions: 50-KLAB/L: LinK-LAB Local laboratory connectivity package for PILOT and AUTOMAX PRO, PRO-M machines. Note: caliper and barcode cannot be both connected on the compression machine. 50-KLAB/E: LinK-LAB Enterprise connectivity package for machines controlled by PC via Datamanager Software. Both versions allow direct acquisition, according to the device/s connected, of sample weight, dimensions, identification number and test execution video recording (Enterprise version only). 11-D0630/24K: 24000 g cap. x 0.1g resolution, digital balance. 230V/50-60Hz/1ph 82-D1655/K: Digital caliper 200 x 0,01 mm 82-D1950/K: Barcode reader These data, along with all the relevant test results, are collected and available for:
