This Automated Soil Compactor provides uniform, consistent, and safe compaction.

  • Mechanical compaction of soil and soil-cement mixtures in the laboratory.
  • Proctor, CBR, and LBR samples

  • Soil layers are uniformly compacted, every time.
  • Conformity to ASTM and AASHTO standards for hammer drop height is assured because the hammer lift compensates for changing sample height.
  • Display shows number of layers and blow counts per layer to prevent common causes of operator errors. Blows can be pre-set in memory and automatically stop the machine.
  • Drop heights and weights can be changed easily to accommodate alternate test requirements. 12 inch (std.) or 18 inch. Order separately.
  • Changing hammer drop height is simple and very quick — just insert a couple of spacers and you’re ready.
  • Rotating base accepts molds from a variety of manufacturers.
  • Works with standard, CBR and LBR molds.
  • Safety operation — fully enclosed drive mechanism, locking mechanism to prevent the hammer from falling when the machine if OFF, and emergency shut-off button.
