Point Load Index Tester

Point Load Test Machine is used to determine the strength values of a rock and concrete specimen both in the field and in the laboratory. It consists of a load frame for applying loads up to 100 KN, on which a manual hydraulic jack is mounted. The instrument accepts core specimens up to 102 mm diameter which are loaded by two cone shaped points. A graduated scale indicates the distance between the conical points. The applied load is measured by a pressure. transducer with a digital display unit range 0-100 KN
