Charpy notched-bar impact test with increased work capacity up to 300Nm
| Code | WP410 |
Description:
- In the field of industrial quality control, the impact test is a widely used test method with which to quickly and easily determine characteristics for a material or component analysis.
- The WP 410trainer is a solid-pendulum impact tester based on DIN EN ISO 148-1, designed for the Charpy notched-bar impact test.
- The clean layout and simple operation mean the experimental sequence can be observed in all details and phases.
- The power of the trainer allows tests to be performed on an industrial scale.
- In the experiment, the hammer attached to a pendulum arm describes an arc.
- At the lowest point of the hammer path, the hammer transfers part of its kinetic energy to the notched specimen.
- The specimen is either destroyed or bent by the impact and pushed between the supports.
- The notched-bar impact work required to deform the specimen is read directly off a large scale.
- By using the WP 410.20system for data acquisition, the measured values can be transferred to a PC where they can by analysed with the software.
- In order to vary the output energy, the mass of the hammer can be changed by adding or removing weights.
- A brake reduces the residual energy of the hammer.
- The required protective cover for the operating area allows the experiments to be conducted safely and is available as accessory WP 410.50.
- The hammer is triggered with two hands for safer operation.
- The experimental results allow quality control and an analysis of the fracture behaviour of different metallic materials.
- Non-metallic specimens can also be used.
- The scope of delivery includes stainless steel ISO-V notched-bar impact specimens.
- Specimens made of other materials are available as accessories.
