AELAB Soil Hardness Tester FM-204TR
A precision instrument for measuring soil penetration resistance to evaluate soil density, dry density, and compaction coefficient in geotechnical applications.
Using regression correlations between penetration resistance, soil water content, and dry density, the device enables rapid assessment of soil compaction quality across a wide range of engineering scenarios.
