The counter fitted to the machine automatically records the number of blows delivered to the sample, manufactured from heavy duty plated steel to resist corrosion.
The instrument consists of a circular base with Two vertical guides. The Hammer of weight 13.75 +/-0.25kg can be raised to fall freely down the vertical guides. The Height of fall can be adjusted through 380 +/- 5mm. The Hammer is provided with a locking arrangement.
The hammer falls freely to the base and is removable for employing. Supplied complete with metal measure 75mm dia x 50mm high (For specimen preparation) and Tamping Rod 230mm long x 10mm diameter. A Blow Counter to count the number of strokes is fitted on top of the equipment.
Standards: ASTM D2-33 & IS 2386 (PART IV)
Specification: It consists of two hollow cylinders closed at one end and provided with Fitting covers at the either end. These cylinders are mounted an a shaft at angle of 300 with the axis of rotation of the shaft. The shaft rotates at 30-33 RPM. Through a reduction gear operated by a motor and is provided with a revolution counter. Complete with Abrasive Charge consisting of 12 Nos. Hardened steel Balls of 48mm dia. Suitable for operation on 440 Volts, Three Phase, 50 Cycles, A.C. supply.
Note: Option of Digital Preset Counter can be provided at an Extra Cost

Specification: Designed for grinding materials to produce fine mesh samples Ideal for use in Cement and Chemical Industries
Standards: IS 1237, IS 1706
Specification: This is used for determination of resistance to wear for Cement & Concrete flooring tiles. Tiles specimen of size 7.06 cm x 7.06 cm is pressed face-wise under specific load on a grinding path and abrasive powder is evenly spread on the rotating grinding disc the second parallel side of the tile is subjected to wear for similar number of rotations. The wear of the tile is measured on a thickness gauge specifically made for the purpose. The machine consists of a disc rotating at a speed of 30 R.P.M. in a circular tray. A bracket is provided to hold the specimen. A counter balance lever loads the specimen. Load applied is 30 Kgf. A funnel is fitted to evenly spread abrasive powder on the grinding path. A Pre-set Counter automatically stops the machine after 22 revolutions. This counter is Re-adjustable. The machine works on 440 V A.C. Three Phase electrical supply. On request machine to operate on 230 V A.C. Supply can also be supplied.
Standards: IS 2386 (PART-1) & BS 812
