Functions

This series is widely used for Izod and Charpy impact test on plastics and plastic pipes. Equipped with tensile impact pendulum and fixtures, it can carry on tests on plastic film and sheet.

Newly designed model offers the most cost-effective configuration to address Charpy test from 1J to 50J, and Izod test from 1J to 22J.

Standards

ISO 179, ISO 180, ISO 8256, ISO 9854.1, ASTM D256, ASTM D1822

Features

High resolution

Using a shaftless encoder allows angle resolution of 0.045 °

Energy losses

Shaftless encoder for angle measurement rotates without any friction; only support bearings friction and windage has the lowest energy losses

LCD display

LCD display provides easy setup of specimen dimensions, pendulum energy, units and calibration data. Also it can intuitionally display test results: absorbed energy and impact toughness

Exchangeable pendulum

Simply change the pendulum to satisfy Charpy, Izod and tensile impact test

Center alignment

Rotating design is quick and accurate to align specimen center for Charpy test

Supports and anvils

Supports are tightened to seat by dovetail groove firmly; only need remove two bolts to change the supports

Broader test space

Single column structure offers broad test space, easy to install low temperature impact test accessories in the future
