Motorized Compression/Tension Machine
Product Code : LSK-CL-10584
Motorized Compression/Tension Machine (SKU LSK-CL-10584) is a motor-driven testing frame for compression tests up to 2000 kN and tensile tests up to 500 kN. Civil engineering and construction-materials laboratories use it to load specimens to failure and record the peak force on a digital readout. Science Lab Supplies supplies this machine from Ambala, India for engineering colleges, polytechnics, TVET institutes, contractors bidding on tenders, and distributors.
Specifications
The frame has a 100 mm piston stroke and a 280 mm span between its columns, with manual regulation of the loading or tensile rate using a pacer. A two-channel universal digital indicator reads the compression load cell and other dynamometers, and a remote button switch operates the readout units.

Applications and Experiments for the Compression/Tension Machine
The machine is used to find the compressive strength of concrete and other construction specimens and to run tension tests within its 500 kN limit. It suits concrete technology and building-materials practicals in B.Tech and diploma civil engineering, and materials-testing modules in TVET construction courses.
- B.Tech / B.E. civil engineering: compressive strength of hardened concrete in the concrete technology lab.
- Diploma civil engineering: building-materials testing practicals.
- Tension tests on specimens within the 500 kN tensile rating.
- TVET construction and materials-testing courses: supervised load-to-failure demonstrations.
Specimens under high load can fail suddenly; keep trainees clear of the loading zone and test only under supervision.
Standard Scope of Supply
The machine is supplied with a two-channel universal digital indicator for dynamometers and load cells, a 2000 kN compression load cell with factory calibration, and a remote button switch for the readout units. Specimen moulds and any tensile grips beyond these items are not listed and would be quoted separately.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
You can request a price for one machine or for several testing stations, and every quotation sets out the packing, delivery time and price for the quantity you name. Specimen preparation equipment such as the laboratory concrete mixer can be added, which suits buyers comparing engineering lab equipment in India.
As a registered exporter under an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda, the UAE and Saudi Arabia. You can reach the team through the contact page, list items in the enquiry cart, or use the lab tender page for tender work.
Frequently Asked Questions
What loads can this machine apply?
It applies up to 2000 kN in compression, read in 0.1 kN divisions, and up to 500 kN in tension, read in 0.01 kN divisions. The piston stroke is 100 mm and the span between columns is 280 mm.
How is the loading rate controlled?
The load or tensile rate is regulated manually, with a pacer helping the operator hold a steady rate while the indicator shows the rising force.
Who supplies the Motorized Compression/Tension Machine?
Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India, quoting directly to colleges and training institutes and to tender contractors and distributors acting for them.
Can it be quoted against a tender?
Yes. Send the tender specification, quantity and delivery point, and an item-wise quotation based on the listed specification will follow.
