CON4 is designed for testing materials in the masonry and concrete industry,  and the CON 2000-6000 kN therefore offers a unique solution for generating, filing and displaying quality data. It is built around a specially designed test machine, and it offers the user a fast and effective way of generating and presenting a quality report for masonry or concrete samples. Additionally, it offers a data filing and retrieving system giving the user instant access to reports on any previously tested sample. Much more than just the compression test results can be included in the quality report. The TRAM QA software offers the user a simple way to incorporate all relevant quality parameters. This is done in a system of tables that can be set up for almost any application. It is ideally suited to quality assurance and process control as well as research and development. It is capable of performing a wide range of complex testing procedures and can be set up for relevant international or national standards, e.g. EN 12390, EN772-1, and ISO 4012.

The special machine design provides optimum stiffness resulting in accurate deformation measurements, when the optional deformation sensor is used. Testing is controlled from the computer after keying in sample identification. During the testing the load-deformation curve is simultaneously generated on the monitor. The machine is floor mounted. Automatic positioning of the loading head virtually eliminates the waiting time between tests. The machine complies with the requirements of EN 12390-4.
