About the Live Scrum
Designed and engineered to withstand a horizontal force of 1600kg, with each Ram producing over 1 tonne of pressure, enough to take on the biggest packs in international rugby.
The machines enormous horizontal force creates 900kg of uplift at the front of the leg. This is stabilized with six ground anchor screws that have a hold down capability of 600kg per screw. The Machine can also be mounted on a Trailer (as seen on the pictures) with a special mount, it can then be used like that with no need to dismount it, as long as the vehicle has the parking brake on.
The most significant element is the patented Rail System, which in combination with the push back from the Pneumatic Rams creates controlled instability, including a capacity for lateral movement, thus simulating an opposition scrum.
Pressure can be controlled, adjusted and measured to expose player(s) strengths, discrepancies and track improvement. With this level of assessment is easy to create a safe and powerful scrum.
