Our Automatic Universal Compactor has been fabricated as per IS: 2720 (Part VII & VIII). The Automatic Universal Soil Compactor is fabricated to compact specimens uniformly as well as automatically for Proctor and C.B.R. tests thereby completely abolishing the laborious hand compaction method.

Components and Functionality
The lateral movement of the table and the rotation of the mold after every stroke (for C.B.R. mould only) ascertain complete coverage of soil surface. Herein, the height of the compaction rammer can be rapidly swapped from 310 to 450mm by hand lever. It consists of hammer in two parts that is adjustable for 4.89 kg for heavy compaction and 2.6 kg for light compaction is supplied as a standard component of the unit. A graduated dial incorporating a micro switch supports the presetting of number of blows before each test and then automatically stops the machine on completion.
