The shear Vane testing is used to determine the total shear resistance of normally cohesive, un-drained soils (especially soft clays) by fast shearing and is mostly useful for soils with low shear strength.

The motorized lab vane was developed and designed according to the latest scientific and research insights and requirements so that undisturbed soil samples (e.g., core cutters) as well as treated samples (e.g., Proctor samples) or artificial mixtures can be tested for practical applications as well as for research purposes.

The test is relatively easy to set up, quick, and provides an economical way of soil shear strength estimation and due to the variable sample container attachment and the height-adjustable vertical cross bar, the shape and size of sample containers which can be used are virtually unrestricted.

We manufacture two models for laboratory Vane shear test which this model is motorized version which gives Digital measurement of shear resistance (torque) using a digital transducer and LC-display with continuous or maximum value storage, and we also manufacture another version which is fully automatic and comes with data acquisition system and software.
