Soil extruder, motor operated

Features one of the largest capacities available on the market (ram stroke 900 mm), and due to the large number of standard adaptors, is considered the most versatile extruder. The machine exerts a max. thrust of 60 kN and is very simple to operate: a lever controls the extruding speed and the hydraulic valve for the extrusion or return movement. It can also be stopped at any point in its travel to enable extrusion into small smaller sample tubes or to take smaller size specimens.

Sampling tubes are held in place by an adjustable “V” shape bearing which can extrude either in the vertical or horizontal position. Both the hydraulic cylinder assembly and the receiving table can easily be lowered alongside the machine to save space when not in use. The machine is supplied without tube adaptors which have to be ordered separately. See accessories.
