Description

Key Features & Specifications
• Capacity & Type
Has a rated capacity of 2000 kN (≈ 200 tons), making it ideal for heavy-duty load testing on concrete cubes, cylinders, blocks, and other structural test specimens.
The unit is of channel-based / frame type construction—robust and rigid for stable test conditions.
• Digital Display & Operation
This CTM Digital Operated version includes a digital display / digital readout panel, enabling precise load measurement and real-time monitoring.
• Loading Mechanism
The hydraulic jack is fixed to the base, while the upper platen is self-aligning and attached to an adjustable screw mechanism for initial clearance setting.
The lower platen is positioned via a centring pin and moves upward to apply compressive load on specimens.
• Pumping / Hydraulic Unit
Powered by a single-phase 220/440 V, 50 Hz electric motor, the double-plunger motorised pumping unit is mounted in a separate console.
The hydraulic pack connects to the jack via a rubber hose and is controlled through a push-button starter and junction box.
• Construction & Build Quality
Built with high rigidity and stability to resist deflection under load, ensuring long-term precision.
Designed for operator safety, the frame includes protective features (e.g. viewing window) and overload protection.

Platen surfaces are self-aligning to maintain uniform bearing pressure and prevent stress concentrations.
• Accuracy & Calibration
Load calibration is done using certified proving rings, with high standards of loading accuracy.
The system supports peak load recording to capture the maximum load sustained by the sample.
• Installation & Commissioning
Requires a solid concrete foundation with embedded anchoring (bolts or steel rods) cured for 28 days
Once mounted, the machine is levelled, connected to power, cleaned, and calibrated before use.

Benefits & Use Cases
• Superior Accuracy & Repeatability
As a state-of-the-art compression testing machine, this CTM machine 2000 kN excels in delivering consistent, precise measurements, making it ideal for compliance testing, material qualification, and quality assurance.
• Enhanced Productivity & Efficiency
The digital operated interface reduces operator error and speeds up test cycles. Its turnkey hydraulic system ensures smoother operations with minimal maintenance.
• Versatile Application
Suitable for concrete cube, beam, cylinder, brick, block, and masonry element testing. Laboratories, construction QA centres, research institutions, and educational testing facilities will benefit from its wide adaptability.
• Robust & Stable Construction
Because it’s a channel-type CTM machine, its rigid frame and thoughtful design help maintain alignment and avoid distortion over years of use—even under repeated heavy loading.
• User Safety & Reliability
Safety provisions, such as overload protection and viewing windows, prioritise operator protection. The machine is built to perform reliably in industrial and lab environments.
