Description
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
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 up to 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.
Liya LT-U0150J 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. Door triggered testing mode enables the fast and continuous testing for temperature sensitive tests and user command mode provides for more control for the operator.
Heat treated anvils and the striker are replaceable for both to be changed because wear caused by the long term use and to allow 8 mm radius striker to be mounted on the pendulum.
