The compactor continues until the desired number of gyrations or
target specimen height, as selected by the operator, is reached. The
compactor then unclamps the mold, removes the angle of gyration,
and lowers the ram to its home position.
If the Post Gyrate Delay function is enabled (see page 3–8), the
compactor will center itself and maintain a minimal pressure for five
minutes before unclamping the mold and lowering the ram.
If the Auto Output function (see page 3–11) is enabled, the
compactor automatically outputs the gyration versus height data.
The compactor then returns to the Machine Idle display shown on
page 2–4.
Open the chamber door and, wearing heat-resistant gloves,
remove the mold from the compaction chamber. Extrude the
specimen from the mold using the extruder provided with the unit.
You can also use the pneumatic extruder, available from your
Troxler representative.
REMOVING THE SAMPLE FROM THE MOLD
1. Using the Extruder Positioning Buttons, lower the extruder to
the lowest position.
2. Remove sample mold from the chamber and slide the mold into
the extruder rails from left to right.
3. Using the Extruder Positioning Buttons, raise the extruder until
the sample releases from the mold.
4. Using the Extruder Positioning buttons, lower the extruder to
the lowest position.
5. Remove mold from extruder.
