Pendulum Impact Testers, Charpy and Izod Solutions
Designed to assess the impact resistance of materials, our pendulum testers ensure precise, repeatable results for both quality control and research applications.
What is a Pendulum Impact Tester ?
A pendulum impact tester is a precision testing system designed to measure the energy absorbed by a material at the moment of fracture under high-strain, dynamic loading conditions.
By striking a standardized specimen with a calibrated pendulum, it accurately evaluates impact resistance and toughness, providing critical insight into material behavior under sudden stress.
Widely used in quality control, research, and certification, pendulum impact testing ensures materials meet safety standards and perform reliably in applications where impact and shock resistance are essential.
