Materials Testing, Cement Testing Equipment, Quality Control Projects

MECHANICAL STRENGTH (2)

Machines and devices to determine the compression and flexural mechanical strength by means of a breaking test, with controlled parameters, over cement mortar samples.

According with international standards EN 196-1, EN 1015-11, ISO, 679, ASTM C109, C349, C348

SPECIMEN PREPARATION (3)

Equipments and devices for preparing, the different types of samples to be tested. All the items are standardized to allow our customers to prepare samples in a reproducible way. One of the most important facts of the cement quality determination is the assurance of obtaining equal prepared samples.

The variation on the results of materials testing must depend only on the properties of the cement, not on the preparation process Standards, EN 196-1, ASTM C151

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES (7)

Equipments and devices for determining the most relevant physical properties of cement.

Colour, hydration heat, granulometry , density, consistence, are properties which depends directly on the cement physical structure.

Cement with optimized physical properties guarantees superior performance.

PROCESS CONTROL (9)

During the manufacturing of cement several test are carried out to determine if the process is being executed, configured correctly. These equipments allow an early determination of deviations in the production of cement. This way it’s possible to modify production parameters to minimize the production of non acceptable cement EN 196-6, ASTM C204, AASHTO T153

CHEMICAL ANALYSIS (11)

Equipment and devices for chemical cement standard analysis.

Chromium VI content, sulphates, phases analysis, etc depends on the quantitative and qualitative chemical composition of the raw materials, as well as the chemical reactions produced during the clinkering process.

An inappropriate chemical composition will revert in the obtaining of soft and unstable cements, with bad hydraulic fixer properties and low aggression resistance from external agents.
