Description

The vane test is done by pushing the down the hole equipment, similar to Nilcon mechanical vane apparatus, into the ground statically with a penetrometer or drilling rig. When the measuring level is reached the vane instrument is mounted on the rig and the rod string is put through the chuck on the instrument. Rotation is applied on the rod string and the torque is measured and viewed in real-time on your laptop. When the test is finished you either continue pushing down to the next level or retract your rods.
