Soil Sampling & Testing

Royal Eijkelkamp has developed auger sampling equipment for every application in soil research. Years of experimenting with soil researchers has resulted in optimum auger types for different kinds of soil. This makes it possible to take a good and reliable sample for subsequent research.

Hand augers

To obtain a reliable soil sample, it is of great importance to use the correct hand auger. Our experts have designed two types of connections (bayonet and conical screw thread), to make drilling to greater depths possible. The hand augers are made of high-quality non-toxic steel, which makes them extremely suitable for soil and environmental research.

Gouge augers

Hand-forged of high-quality hardened steel by our professionals, and made to last: that best describes the gouge augers developed by Royal Eijkelkamp. These instruments minimise the distortion of a sample, which makes them suitable for profile research and sampling. The gouge auger is available in various lengths and diameters, extendable and non-extendable.

Undisturbed core samplers

A successful laboratory analysis starts in the field; it all depends on the quality of samples. It is important therefore to use the right equipment to take undisturbed, high quality samples. Royal Eijkelkamp has developed a varied range of undisturbed core samplers to meet all needs both in the field and in the laboratory.

Auger accessories

At Royal Eijkelkamp we have various accessories for our augers. These accessories can be useful if, for example, you want to be able to drill deeper, if you want to drill in an ergonomically sound manner or if you need a different coupling for your auger.

Electronic with datalogger

Mapping large areas often requires many measurements. For this purpose, we have developed the Penetrologger; an electronic penetrometer with a built-in GPS and data logger, for accurately storing and processing many data. Optionally a soil moisture sensor can be connected in order to determine and save the soil moisture percentage (single-point measurement) of the measuring position.

Sludge & Sediment Samplers

Royal Eijkelkamp has created a wide range of sludge and sediment samplers. With these instruments it is possible to take samples from the bottom of canals, lakes, rivers, ditches, ports and near coasts. Various equipment for sediment related measurements (turbidity, water depth) is also included in our assortment.
