This system uses a high-precision LVDT displacement sensor for penetration measurement. It is paired with a split-structure displacement setup and frictionless needle drop, which supports consistent readings during cement consistency and setting time testing.

That sensor choice is practical for routine QC work because it gives fine displacement resolution and stable repeatability when comparing paste consistency across samples. If you are evaluating an automated workflow against a manual setup, the same product family also includes the Manual Vicat Apparatus for a more traditional approach.
