IMPACT-5000: Dynamic Material Impact Resistance Analyzer
Overview
The IMPACT-5000 measures material resistance to sudden impacts per ASTM D256 (Izod) and ISO 179 (Charpy). Engineered for plastics, metals, and composites, it quantifies energy absorption and fracture behavior.
Core Features
- Dual Testing Modes: Pendulum (Izod/Charpy) and drop weight (CEAST 9350) configurations.
- High-Speed Sensors: Measures impact energy (Joules) and velocity (m/s) with ±0.5% accuracy.
- Environmental Control: Heated chambers (-40–150°C) simulate extreme conditions.
- Data Analytics: Software generates stress-strain curves and fracture toughness reports.
Applications
- Automotive: Test bumpers, dashboards, and body panels.
- Aerospace: Certify composite materials for wing components.
- Packaging: Validate plastic bottles and containers.
Compliance
ASTM D256, ISO 179, ASTM D6110, EN ISO 179-1.
Optional Add-Ons
- High-pressure gas-driven impactors.
- Real-time video analytics with fracture analysis.
- Multi-station parallel testing for high-throughput labs.
Conclusion
The IMPACT-5000 provides critical data to optimize material toughness, reducing failure risks in high-stress applications.
