JCPT20 High-Precision Tracked CPT Vehicle System for Soil And Pore Pressure Testing

Product Description:

The JCPT-20 Tracked CPT Vehicle is a high-precision, mobile in-situ soil testing system designed for field geotechnical
investigations. Equipped with a 16-bit high-performance microcontroller and a 7-inch TFT display, it supports multiple probes including cone penetration (CPT), pore pressure, wave velocity, and vane shear sensors. The system accurately measures soil parameters such as cone resistance, sleeve friction, and pore pressure with minimal error, while recording depth profiles at 10 cm intervals. Its robust tracked platform ensures stable operation on rough terrain, allowing testing in remote or challenging environments. With low power consumption, long battery life, and large internal storage for hundreds of boreholes, the JCPT-20 offers reliable, versatile, and efficient solutions for geotechnical engineering, construction site evaluation, and foundation design.

Features:

>> High-Precision In-Situ Soil Testing

The JCPT-20 is equipped with advanced strain-gauge force sensors and high-accuracy pore pressure sensors, capable of continuously measuring cone resistance, sleeve friction, and pore pressure during penetration. With an error margin of less than 0.5%, it delivers reliable and precise data, ensuring engineers obtain accurate soil profiles for safe and cost-effective foundation design.

>> Versatile and Multi-Functional Probes

Designed to support a wide range of probes, including CPT, CPTu (pore pressure), wave velocity, and vane shear, the JCPT-20 adapts to different geotechnical testing requirements. This versatility allows comprehensive investigation of soil stratification, permeability, consolidation, and shear strength within a single platform, reducing the need for multiple testing systems.

>> Tracked Mobility for Challenging Terrains

Mounted on a heavy-duty tracked vehicle with a powerful hydraulic pushing system, the JCPT-20 ensures smooth and stable probe penetration, even under harsh field conditions. Its mobility makes it suitable for use on soft soils, uneven ground, and remote locations, providing consistent performance where truck-mounted or trailer-based systems may face limitations.

>> Smart Control, Data Acquisition, and Storage

Powered by a 16-bit high-performance microcontroller and featuring a 7-inch TFT display, the JCPT-20 offers real-time monitoring, intelligent control, and user-friendly operation. Its large internal storage capacity can handle up to 1024 datasets and 350 boreholes, making it ideal for long-term projects. The system ensures efficient data collection, secure storage, and easy transfer for analysis and reporting.
