California Bearing Ratio
This is a 50kN digital machine driven by a stepper motor, tailored for laboratory CBR (California Bearing Ratio) testing. Its microprocessor-based electronics ensure precise speed control and a user-friendly interface. It offers two fixed speeds: 1.2 mm/min for BS standards and 1.27 mm/min for ASTM standards, along with a fast platen adjustment speed of 50 mm/min.
In simpler terms, it’s a specialized lab device for testing soil strength, using a motor to control movement accurately. The built-in computer chip makes it easy to operate and maintains consistent speeds for different testing standards, with a quick adjustment option for the testing platform.
Highlights
- Precise Speed Control: Stepper motor ensures accurate speed regulation.
- Microprocessor-Driven: Advanced microprocessor for reliable operation.
- Large LED Display: 20mm LED for clear, easy-to-read output.
- Dual Speed CBR: Supports BS and ASTM standards.
- Fast Platen Adjustment: 50mm/min for quick setup.
- Optional Data Logger: Automatic data collection available at additional cost.

CALIFORNIA BEARING RATIO TEST APPARATUS, MOTORIZED, SINGLE SPEED
The equipment you’re referring to has the same overall design and components as the BE 01-1 with the key difference being the material used for the mould assembly. Specifically, the mould, perforated base plate, and mould extension collar are made of Gun Metal instead of Mild Steel. The equipment operates at a one speed of 1.25 mm per minute.
LABORATORY CALIFORNIA BEARING RATIO TEST APPARATUS, MOTORISED,3 SPEED:-
The equipment you’re referring to is almost identical to the BE 01-01 model in terms of its overall structure and components. However, there are a few key differences in the 3 Speed and as your order Manual type.
