Geosynthetic direct shear drawing friction tester


The friction characteristics of the interface of sand/geotextile were determined by testing the contact surface of standard sand/geotextile. This instrument is suitable for all geotextiles and related products. The instrument adopts high-precision servo motor.By testing the pull-out friction resistance of the geosynthetic material and the surrounding soil, the pull-out resistance characteristics of the geosynthetic material were determined. It is suitable for soil of various soil properties and states and various types of geotextiles, geomembranes, geotextiles and geogrids.

Application

The geosynthetic materials direct shear and pull-out friction testing system is primarily used to test the pull-out friction resistance between geosynthetic materials (such as geotextiles, geomembranes, geogrids, etc.) and the surrounding soil, as well as the friction characteristics of these materials under direct shear conditions.

Material performance evaluation:  It tests the friction and pull-out performance of geosynthetic materials under specific conditions to evaluate their stability and durability in practical applications.

Engineering material selection: It allows for the comparison of the friction and pull-out performance of different geosynthetic materials to select the most suitable material for engineering needs.

New material development: In the development of new geosynthetic materials, this system can serve as an important tool for performance evaluation, helping researchers optimize material formulations and processes.

Features

Direct shear drawing test system is an integrated machine with two functions of direct cutting and drawing, as long as by changing a small amount of tooling fixtures, two test functions can be achieved:

Computer upper computer software controls the test process, direct shear and drawing interface friction integration into one, software autonomy is strong, can independently set the experimental conditions of mainstream standards at home and abroad, applicable to mainstream national standards, and can independently complete data processing, to achieve full data export, easy to study the relationship between shear stress and displacement of samples and time, is a comprehensive interface friction test system;

The horizontal loading device adopts servo electric cylinder to realize full digital speed closed-loop control, which has the advantages of stable speed, wide speed range and high positioning accuracy, and the stretching speed can be set arbitrarily.

The normal loading device is realized by manual hydraulic or automatic electric cylinder, which is convenient and reliable, and the pressure is stable. The pin connection technology can quickly and simply change the clamp required for testing;

It has a variety of hardware and software protection measures such as overload and over-travel to ensure the safe and reliable operation of the equipment.
