Soil extruder, motor operated Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Soil extruder, motor operated (Product Code: SLE/CE/76) is a hydraulic sample extruder used to push soil samples out of sampling tubes in geotechnical and civil engineering laboratories. Soil mechanics labs at universities, polytechnics and site-investigation firms use it for tubes up to 160 mm external diameter, with a 60 kN maximum load and a 900 mm ram stroke. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer of engineering lab equipment in India, at its own factory in Ambala.

Specifications

What Is the Soil Extruder Used For?

Soil samples taken in the field are usually brought to the laboratory still inside their sampling tubes. The extruder's hydraulic ram pushes the soil out in a steady, controlled stroke so that specimens can be trimmed for unconfined compression, consolidation, shear or density tests with as little disturbance as possible. Because the ram can be halted anywhere in its travel, the operator can push a short length straight into a smaller sample tube, or cut off one specimen and then continue.

Use the vertical position when floor space is tight and the horizontal position for long tubes that are easier to handle lying down. Fit the adaptor that matches the tube, set a gentle speed with the lever for soft soils, and wipe the ram and V-bearing clean after each sample. As heavy-duty lab equipment for technical institutes, it lets students see how field samples become test specimens.

What to Specify When Ordering

• External diameter of every sampling tube you use (up to 160 mm), so the right tube adaptors can be quoted
• Whether you will work in the vertical position, the horizontal position or both
• The electrical supply available at your laboratory for the 750 W drive
• Floor space for up to 2730 mm length in the horizontal position and a weight of approx. 160 kg

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab, is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of this motor-operated soil extruder. It is made and assembled at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, rather than bought in from a trader.

Geotechnical departments, testing laboratories, dealers and importers are supplied factory-direct. Adaptor orders, spare parts and repeat units are handled by the manufacturer itself — ask us for what you need. More about the company is on the ScienceLab company profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the largest sample tube the Soil extruder, motor operated can take?
The Soil extruder, motor operated (SLE/CE/76) accepts sampling tubes up to 160 mm external diameter and has a maximum ram stroke of 900 mm, so a long tube can be emptied in one pass. A suitable tube adaptor is needed for each tube size.

Are tube adaptors included with the motor-operated soil extruder?
No. The motor-operated soil extruder is supplied without tube adaptors, which have to be ordered separately. Tell us the external diameter of every sampling tube you use and we will quote matching adaptors together with the extruder.

How fast does the soil extruder push the sample out?
The Soil extruder, motor operated reaches a maximum working ram speed of 6 mm per second, and a lever lets the operator set the extruding speed. The ram can be stopped at any point, which helps when cutting short specimens or filling smaller tubes.

Can the soil extruder be used horizontally as well as vertically?
Yes. On the Soil extruder, motor operated, tubes sit in an adjustable V-shape bearing and can be extruded vertically or horizontally. Overall size is about 1025 × 409 × 1080 mm in the vertical position and 2730 × 409 × 1180 mm in the horizontal position.

Who manufactures the Soil extruder, motor operated?
The Soil extruder, motor operated is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Quotations, adaptor orders and spare-part enquiries are handled directly by the manufacturer.

What should a quotation request for the soil extruder include?
For the Soil extruder, motor operated, state the quantity, the diameters of the sampling tubes you use, your preferred working position, your electrical supply and the delivery location in India or abroad. Send these through the contact page for a manufacturer's quotation.

Is the motor-operated soil extruder supplied outside India?
Yes. Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) supplies the Soil extruder, motor operated to laboratories in India and international markets. As the machine weighs about 160 kg, include the delivery destination in your enquiry so that freight can be discussed with the quotation.
