Charpy Izod Impact Testers STANDARDS : ASTM E 23; EN ISO 148, GOST 9454; AS 1544; JIS Z 2242,B 7722 ASTM E23 Standard Test Methods for Notched Bar Impact Testing of Metallic Materials EN ISO 148 Metallic Materials – Charpy Pendulum Impact Test Fixtures/strikers are available for each test standard Impact test determines the amount of energy absorbed by a material during fracture. This absorbed energy is a measure of a given material’s toughness and acts as a tool to study temperature-dependent nature of brittle-ductile transition PARSROS motorized pendulum impact testers are fully automated and high performance devices which are ideal for testing metals according to Charpy and Izod standards up to capacities of 450J. U-type pendulums are suspended on a sturdy steel pedestal which is designed to be attached to a concrete base or a strong floor. Pendulum is driven by an electric motor and an electromagnetic clutch system. The fall of the pendulum is initiated with a latch mechanism so that the fall is sudden and unaffected from any friction losses. After the test, the pendulum is automatically captured and returned to the starting position. Angle, therefore position readings of the pendulum are done by a rotary encoder and the data is processed by a colored touch screen control unit to display absorbed energy values. PARSROS Charpy Izod Impact Testers can run with both user command and door triggered modes and in both modes the automation of the device together with the safety cabin is designed to prevent any unforeseen accidents and user injuries.
