Soil - Sample Trimmers

SOIL TRIMMER HAND OPERATED BENCH TYPE
For trimming various diameter specimens for Triaxial shear and unconfined compression test. The soil sample is mounted on the lower specimen grip and the upper grip, adjustable for different heights, is firmly seated on top of the specimen. The gripper plates are provided with pins to have a firm grip on the specimen. An adjustable vertical guide control on the depth of cut.

SOIL TRIMMER MOTORISED BENCH TYPE
For preparing the specimens for consolidation tests on soils to exact diameter and height.
It consists of a base with a knife support. The platform supporting the specimen ring rotates slowly driven by a fractional motor with reduction gearing housed inside the base. The hardened steel trimming knife mounted on a support, and is adjustable both horizontally and vertically permits trimming of the specimen to the exact size of the ring. A guide prevents over cutting

SOIL LATHE MOTORISED BENCH TYPE
For trimming various diameter specimens for Triaxial shear and confined compression test. The soil sample is mounted on the lower specimen grip and the upper grip adjustable for different heights, is firmly seated on top of the specimen. The gripper plates are provided with pins to have a firm grip on the specimen. An arrangement for controlling the depth of cut is provided. The sample is trimmed to the size by the moving cutting tool.

Sample Trimmers
Sample trimmers are designed to simplify precision trimming of soil samples for testing in routine, research and educational laboratories. Both hand operated and motorized models are available for trimming consolidation test specimens unconfined compression and Triaxial shear test specimens and for other tests in which cylindrical specimens are required
