CM-4000 Series Compression Machine
The CM-4000 Series Compression Machine meets the demands of production testing programs for day to day performance. Its heavy duty load frame features thicker crossheads. Its wrap-around frame design extends the frame’s side members around the crossheads. In addition, the fully welded machine forms a one-piece load frame for the maximum stability needed for repeatable and accurate test results year after year.
With the CM-4000’s wider horizontal frame opening and lower compression platen table, the loading of heavy specimens is easier.  Additionally, cylinders with pad cap rings easily set on the front edge of the table and then slid into place, not lifted. The lower platen is through hardened to 55 HRC or greater plus hard nickel plated for longer service life. The machine also comes complete with a 2-year warranty on parts and labor.
