DIGITAL LOS ANGLES ABRASION TESTING MACHINE AZA0987
The AZA0987 Digital Los Angeles Abrasion Testing Machine is an advanced, high-precision laboratory system designed to measure the abrasion resistance and mechanical durability of coarse aggregates used in roads, railways, and concrete structures. Equipped with a digital RPM and programmable timer display, this machine ensures consistent, repeatable, and accurate test performance in compliance with international standards.
Key Functions
- Determines aggregate abrasion resistance under controlled test conditions
- Simulates real-life impact and wear suffered by aggregates
- Provides precise digital RPM and time control for repeatability
- Suitable for routine quality control and research laboratories
Description
Standards Compliance
-
IS 2386 (Part IV)
-
ASTM C131
How It Works
The aggregate sample and hardened steel balls are placed inside a motor-driven rotating steel drum. The drum rotates at a controlled speed of 30–33 RPM for a preset number of revolutions. During rotation, aggregates are subjected to continuous abrasion and impact forces. After completion, the sample is sieved and weighed to calculate the percentage loss (LA Abrasion Value).
Key Features
-
Digital Control Panel with RPM and timer display
-
Heavy-duty steel drum for long operational life
-
Precision motor and gearbox system
-
Low vibration and stable frame design
-
Easy loading and unloading with safety locking cover
