General Description: Model: IT-30

·         The pendulum Impact Tester, Model IT-30 is designed for conducting Izod, Charpy test

·         The pendulum is mounted on antifriction bearings. It has two starting positions. the upper one for Charpy the lower one for Izod testing.

·         On release, the pendulum swings down to break the specimen & the energy absorbed in doing so is measured as the difference between the height of drop before rupture of the test specimen and is read from the maximum pointer position on the dial scale. (It is read on digital readout in case of electronic machines)

·         There are two strikers and one combined support anvil available for fitting in to the pendulum and on the base of machine for the Izod, Charpy test respectively.

·         Changing from one striker to another is achieved simply by fixing the new striker into it's position.

General Description: Model: IT - ASTM

·         The Impact Tester offered with 300 & 400 J energy exclusively for Charpy test. This machine is geometrically checked in the works to the more stringent requirements of the American standard.

·         The accuracy of the machine is then verified by PROOFTEST by testing standard test specimens supplied bythe NIST, USA. Two sets (Low& high energy-1 Set (4 Nos.) each) must agreewith the normalvalues withincertain tolerance specified.
