ShearSCAN 2 Pneumatic Table Top Shear Box

The VJ Tech ShearSCAN 2 utilises the pneumatic loading concept for applying the vertical load to the sample. The self-contained tabletop model eliminates the need for the numerous weights used in dead weight systems. The microprocessor based ShearSCAN 2 system incorporates a stepper motor drive, a large graphical display, a touch sensitive keypad and forward/reverse travel limit switches. Built in data acquisition automates the testing by setting the starting and stopping conditions. The ShearSCAN 2 is designed for harsh lab environments. A solid 30 mm (1.18") thick shear box assembly is mounted on a sturdy enamel painted steel cabinet. The upright rods and the shear box are stainless steel. The shear box carriage (water chamber) is cast aluminium, anodised for corrosion resistance. The software conforms to BS1377-7, ASTM D3080-04 & AS1289.6.2.2
