The LCPC (Laboratoire Central des Ponts et Chaussées) test device is a laboratory equipment designed to evaluate the abrasiveness of soil, rock, and granular materials. This test determines the abrasiveness coefficient (ABR), playing a crucial role in the performance analysis of tunnel boring machines (TBM), drilling, and excavation equipment, which are exposed to high abrasion.
The LCPC test provides a reliable method for assessing the abrasiveness properties of rocks based on their mineralogy and grain size. Manufactured by Ünal Mühendislik, this device is fully compliant with AFNOR P18-579 standards and ensures high precision and repeatable test results.
