ball drop impact test

Background  

Impact resistance plays an important role in the performance of material subjected to regular shocking load or impact load. As this kind of load may cause rupture, cracking or deformation. There are various test procedures to evaluate the impact resistance of a material, such as dart impact, ball impact, pendulum impact, izod, charpy, tensile, etc. 

Application

Falling ball impact tester measures the resistance performance of plates, sheets, and composites, films foils, paper etc. with less than 2mm thickness. By impact test, the material ability to resist external destruction can be indicated. User observes the destruction status of the test specimen after it has been hit by a falling weight that fell from a given testing height. 

 Technical Features 

 FBT-01 Falling Dart Impact Tester is a PLC controlled unit (industrial level stable) and HMI touch screen operated. 

 ● PLC control and touch screen operation

 ● Impact height adjustable, different balls available

 ● Test results multi-units display 

 ● Electromagnetic suspension and automatic release

 ● Sample pneumatic clamping 

 ● Manual and foot switch

 ● Micro-printer for data export

 ● Professional software (optional) 

 FBT-01S is an economic version of ball impact tester, without complicate control and system. It also uses electromagnetic suspension and release, and is equipped with two foot switches too. Sample pneumatic clamping is also the same type and test area as FBT-01.
