Admet's MegaForce II automatic concrete testing system and Concrete-Traker database are sold as OEM equipment by concrete compressive test frame manufacturers and as retrofits to existing units
"During our almost twenty years in the business, Admet has applied its expertise in machine controls and reporting software to become a major supplier to concrete testing laboratories," said Richard Gedney, company founder and president.
"We've designed products that are easy to install, learn and use, and backed them up with free customer service for the life of the product.
"That approach has enabled us to sell to OEM concrete testing machine suppliers and build a successful retrofit business that helps labs leverage their test frame investments into state-of-the-art systems.
"Admet-retrofitted systems are more accurate, ensure tests are performed according to ASTM specifications, make it easier to track specimens, and record, save and share test results".
MegaForce II is a user-programmable, electronically-controlled hydraulic pump that offers a quick preload, precise test control and fast return dump valve system.
The closed loop system works with single acting pistons up to 10,000 psi and costs 50-70% less than a conventional hydraulic servo system.
It can be controlled by Admet's Gauge Buster Digital Indicator or Mtestwindows Microsoft Windows PC-based materials testing system.
MegaForce II increases sample throughput while ensuring that all tests are performed according to specification.
It conforms to ASTM specifications for concrete cylinders (ASTM C39) and cement cubes (ASTM C109), as well as cold crush (ASTM C133), concrete beam flexural strength (ASTM C78) and Young's modulus (ASTM C649) testing.
