Direct shear apparatus DDS-5A/DDS-5C
DDS-5A/DDS-5C for Soil Shear Test

DDS-5A/DDS-5C

It is designed to determine the shearing strength of the soil. It adopts transverse processing control drive system and it can not only receive commands through keyboard input, but also be controlled by computer. The recovery rate is delayed to the initial position, providing a convenient way for the shear box to return when restarting a new test or continuing a residual shear test.
