Universal Automatic Compactor
Short info :
An automatic soil compactor is a machine designed to compact soil samples quickly and uniformly. The time and effort required to prepare specimens for compaction studies and other test methods can often be costly and time consuming. The Epic Compactor automatically compacts soil specimens, thereby eliminating the laborious hand compaction method. The height and weight of the hammer is adjustable to suit test requirements.
Wizard Auto 250 KN - Automatic Compression Testing Machines
Description:
- With easy and simple (manual) height adjuster and digital counter
- Pre-set blow pattern ensures even compaction
- Solid state controls for reliability and ease of maintenance
- Automatic counter reset after completion of blow pattern
- An automatic blow pattern ensures optimum compaction for each layer of soil.
- The hammer itself travels across the mould and the table rotates the mould in equal steps on a base that is extremely stable.
- Hammer, Circular faced, 2.0″ (50.8 mm) diameter – foot adjustable to either 2.6 kg or 4.89 kg weight.
- Drop Adjustable to either 310 mm or 450 mm
- Controls Digital counter system, selector switch for either standard proctor test or modified proctor/CBR testing.
- Supplied without moulds.

Specifications:
It is a motor driven mechanical compactor useful for soil compaction into 100mm to 102 mm and 150mm to 152.4 mm diameter moulds. Two sets of Rammers are provided, one of 2.5 kg and arranged for 300 mm and 305 mm drop and other 4.5 kg and arranged for 450 mm and 457 mm drop. The rammer assembly is provided with a ratchet and pawl arrangement to lift it from the top of the soil layer. When the rammer reaches the required height, the pawl releases the rammer which falls freely on soil surface. The release mechanism is operated by an arm moving up and down which is connected to a reduction gear coupled to the motor through another arm. An automatic blow counter fitted to the compactor is used to set the number of blows. The base plate of the specimen mould is to be fitted to the rotating base plate of the instrument which marks 1/5" revolution per stroke. The equipment is suitable for operation on 230 V, 50 Cycles, Single Phase, A.C. supply moulds are to be ordered separately.
