quick overview :

Impact Testing Machine (Izod & Charpy)

The Impact Testing Machine is a pendulum-type machine suitable for Izod and Charpy impact tests on a range of materials. Working on the pendulum principle, its rigid instrument frame and parts minimise energy absorption during fracture for improved test accuracy, and the impact energy absorbed by the sample is read directly on a large dial. It conforms to ASTM E-23.

Applications:

• Measuring the impact strength / toughness of metals and other materials
• Charpy and Izod notched-bar impact testing
• Materials-testing, mechanical-engineering and QA laboratories
• Research and production quality control

Key Features:

• Rigid frame and parts minimise energy absorption during fracture for better accuracy
• Highly strained/wearing parts (support blocks, strikers) in special heat-treated alloy steels
• Direct indication of impact energy absorbed on a large dial
• Safety guard provided for operator protection
• Conforms to ASTM E-23

Technical Specifications:

Optional accessories: gauges, tongs, sub-zero bath, templates, U-notch cutters, V-notch milling cutters.
