3000 kN Compression Machines, Block Platens


The 3000 kN EN Standard High Stability Compression Machines with Block Platens by Matest are designed for precise and versatile concrete testing of cylinders, cubes, and blocks. The four-column heavy-duty frame ensures high stiffness, uniform load distribution, and reliable performance in laboratory and production environments.

For testing blocks, the machine offers a maximum vertical daylight of 283 mm and compression platens measuring 510x320x55 mm. Cylinders and cubes are accommodated with a vertical daylight of 334.5 mm and 287x60 mm platens, while the horizontal distance between columns is 340 mm, providing ample space for larger specimens.

The machines achieve class 1 calibration accuracy, with a ram travel of approximately 60 mm. Powered by 230V 1ph 50Hz with 750W, the dimensions are 750x520x1500 mm and the weight ranges from 1350 to 1400 kg, ensuring high-quality, repeatable, and standardized compression testing.
