Charpy testing pendulum impact tester roboTest I

For automated impact tests on tempered metal specimens (Charpy) or PE/PP specimens (Charpy/Izod) Industries • - Metals Type of test • - Impact flexure (Charpy) Specimen range • - Cooled specimens • - Semi- or fully automatic test Standards • - ASTM E23 • - ISO 148 • - SO 179 • - ASTM D256 • - ISO 180 The robotic testing system for automated impact tests in the Charpy or Izod method The roboTest I robotic testing system can be mounted on pendulum impact testers for metals or plastics, and automates temperature conditioning, specimen feeding and impact tests in the Charpy or Izod method. In the Charpy method, metals are tested to ISO 148 or ASTM E23 in a temperature range of -180 to +300 °C (optionally up to +600 °C). The robotic testing system can be used in semi-automatic or fully automatic version with a 450 joule oder 750 joule (HIT450P/PWS750) pendulum impact tester. In the Charpy method, plastics are tested to ISO 179 or ASTM D256, or optionally using the Izod method to ISO 180 or ASTM E23 in a temperature range of -80 to +100 °C. The roboTest I for plastics can be used in fully automatic version with a 25 joule or 50 joule (HIT 25/50) pendulum impact tester.
