Description
HM-5150A.3F
Automatic Load Frame for CBR (California Bearing Ratio)
Supports the following standards: ASTM D1883, AASHTO T193, BS 1377 PART 4
The HM-5150A is built around Humboldt’s integral data logger with touch-screen control, which allows the load frame to be used as a standalone device capable of full test control and data logging. Humboldt’s Next software is included with the HM5150A load frame. The HM-5001SW Next test-specific CBR/LBR software module is sold separately. This software provides robust machine control, calibration, data acquisition and report generation for those using a computer to control load frame operations. In stand-alone mode, the HM-5150A load frame provides a 7″ (178mm) touch-screen controller. These new waterproof touch screens provide colourful, at-a-glance monitoring of testing functions without a computer. Operators can see all the data in several formats at the machine while the test is running. Data can then be viewed simultaneously or downloaded later to a computer in the lab, in the next room or at a different location, while also providing report generation capabilities from within Humboldt’s NEXT software-enhanced CBR and LBR-specific software module
Standalone Control
The waterproof touch screens on these load frames provide colourful, at-a-glance monitoring of testing functions without a computer. Operators can see all the data in several formats at the machine during the testing procedure. Test data can then be transferred to a computer for use with Humboldt’s NEXT Software for report generation.
Computer Control
Humboldt’s NEXT software is included with all Elite Series Load Frames. This software provides robust machine control, data acquisition and report generation for those using a computer to control testing operations.
In addition, operators can view and control testing operations from a PC in the lab, in the next room, or at a different location, while also generating reports using NEXT software and the test-specific software modules.
A CBR-specific software module is available for use with the NEXT software, which provides CBR-specific setup and formatting, rather than the generic formatting provided with the basic NEXT software. For more information or to purchase the NEXT CBR/LBR Software Module Click Here
The HM-5150A is sold as a load frame only; refer to the accessories tab above for items needed to perform CBR tests.
