Concrete & Cement Testing Equipment - Automatic Blaine Apparatus for Cement Fineness Testing – TT-Blaine
Automatic Blaine Apparatus for Cement Fineness Testing – TT-Blaine
TT-Blaine Automatic Blaine Apparatus is a cost-effective and automated solution for accurately measuring the fineness of cement and other powdered materials. Designed in full compliance with the ASTM C204, AASHTO T153, EN-196-6, BS 4550 standards, TT-Blaine uses the air permeability method to determine the specific surface area (SSA) in cm²/g — a critical parameter for assessing cement quality, reactivity, and performance.
Ideal for cement manufacturers, construction material labs, and academic institutions, the TT-Blaine delivers reliable results at a competitive price, making it an excellent choice for laboratories that demand both precision and affordability.
High Performance. Low Cost. Automatic.
The TT-Blaine combines microprocessor control with a user-friendly touch-key interface, offering full automation of the testing process — from air flow measurement to result calculation and digital data logging. This low-cost Blaine apparatus is designed for accuracy, repeatability, and ease of use, while keeping operational and investment costs low.
Why Cement Fineness Testing Matters
Fineness affects the hydration rate, early strength development, and long-term durability of cement-based materials. Measuring the specific surface area ensures consistency, quality, and performance in both research and production environments.
Key Features
- ASTM C204, AASHTO T153, EN-196-6, BS 4550 compliant – accurate air permeability testing of cement fineness
- Fully automatic operation – no manual calculations or timing required
- Low-cost and budget-friendly – ideal for labs with limited resources
- Digital display – shows real-time test values and specific surface area
- Automatic data logging – records test results and timing automatically
- Microprocessor-based control – ensures high precision and repeatability
The Blaine air permeability method calculates the specific surface area of a cement sample by measuring the resistance to airflow through a packed bed of powder. When a known volume of air passes through the sample, the flow rate — affected by particle size and porosity — reveals the surface area, giving insight into the fineness of the material.
