Product Overview

The Intelligent Moulding Sand Strength Tester XQY-2 is a high-precision manual testing instrument designed for measuring the compressive, shear, bending, tensile strength, and force output of moulding (core) sand at both room temperature and elevated temperatures. It is also applicable for testing the strength of ceramics, cement, and other similar materials.

The quality of moulding sand plays a critical role in casting performance. Low wet compressive strength can lead to defects such as sand flushing, falling off, or expansion, affecting dimensional accuracy. Conversely, excessively high green compressive strength may reduce collapsibility, impair flowability, and increase the risk of casting cracks. The XQY-2 tester helps foundries maintain optimal sand properties, ensuring better mould compactness, reduced production costs, and improved casting quality.

Key Advantages

• Multi-Function Testing – Measures compressive, tensile, bending, and shear strength with high accuracy.

• Vertical Loading System – Eliminates static friction and self-weight errors seen in traditional horizontal machines.

• High-Precision Force Sensor – CNC mechanical loading and S-shaped force sensors ensure precise measurements.

• Crosshead Fixture Mechanism – Easy placement of test samples, reduced idle time, and improved testing accuracy.

• Data Storage & Printing – Stores collected data even after power loss; optional printing of test results with averages.

• Versatile Applications – Suitable for scientific research, teaching, and industrial production in foundries and material labs.

Applications

• Strength testing of moulding sand (green sand, resin sand, core sand)

• Quality control for casting and foundry industries

• Testing ceramics, cement, and other non-metallic materials
