Automatic Blaine Apparatus
The Automatic Blaine Apparatus is designed to determine the fineness of cement by measuring its air permeability, in accordance with international standards such as EN 196-6 and ASTM C204.
This advanced system automates critical parts of the testing process—including timing, vacuum control, and result calculation—ensuring more consistent and repeatable results compared to manual methods.
Depending on the model, the apparatus may feature touchscreen control panels, integrated thermal printers for direct reporting, or PC connectivity with dedicated software for digital data logging and analysis.
Ideal for laboratories seeking reliable, time-saving solutions for cement quality control, the Automatic Blaine Apparatus helps maintain compliance, accuracy, and efficiency in fineness testing.
