The microprocessor control system significantly enhances the functionality of the Automatic Shear Testing Machine by enabling it to operate as an automatic stand-alone unit. This advanced system manages test measurements, including force and displacement, so that they are not only displayed in real time but also stored directly in the machine’s memory according to pre-set recording modes. This automation simplifies the testing process, from initiation to completion, without continuous manual oversight.
The direct display and storage of data facilitated by the microprocessor allows for immediate analysis and review of test results, improving efficiency and accuracy in data collection. Users can select from various recording modes, such as linear, exponential, and logarithmic, to match the specific requirements of their testing protocols, providing flexibility in how tests are conducted and data is interpreted.
Additionally, the microprocessor’s ability to control the machine independently provides consistency in test execution, minimizing human error and enhancing test outcomes’ reliability. This level of precision and automation makes the NG-Shear DGEN an invaluable tool for geotechnical testing, supporting rigorous analysis and research in soil mechanics and material science.
