Falling Dart Impact Tester for Film ASTM D 1709

Impact testing is used to determine material behavior at higher deformation speeds. AHP offers a wide range of pendulum Charpy/Izod impact testers for tests according to the relevant test standards. These pendulum Izod/Charpy impact testers cover a range from 0.5 Joules to 50 Joules for plastics testeing. These are available with digital touch displays and with a range of different options especially made for your tests (e.g. tensile impact tests for UPVC profiles, ….).

The falling weight tester is used to determine the external impact resistance of thermoplastic pipes using the staircase or roundtheclock method according to EN744.

The tester is used to determine the Vicat softening temperature and the heat deflection temperature under load for plastics and thermoplastics.

The RCP tester conveniently and accurately determines the critical pressure and critical temperature for rapid crack propagation in PE pressure pipes.
