Qualitest introduce the Q-Impact 50 - High Capacity Izod and Charpy Impact tester for Plastics

(I-Newswire) November 17, 2009 - Qualitest presents the Q-Impact 50 impact tester, which is a high performance impact tester designed to precisely determine the absorbed impact energy and resistance to breakage of plastic specimens. The tester conforms to both ASTM and ISO standards. The innovative design allows this tester to be used for both Izod and Charpy test. The max capacity of this tester is 22J (Izod) and 50J (Charpy)

The Q-Impact 50 features a number of innovative design solutions aimed at optimizing the accuracy of the test results and the ease of use. The tester is designed around a heavy frame in order to minimize vibrations during testing and the impact energy level is easily changed by adding or removing certified weights to the pendulum. The tester covers energy levels from 5.5J to 22J for Izod impact testing and 0.5J to 50J for charpy impact testing.

The test procedure is controlled on a touch screen display using the interactive software; which allows the operator to input data regarding complete, partial or hinge broken and non broken samples. The tester can be connected to a computer for direct data acquisition and further analysis using the included software package. Data can also be transferred by using a memory stick for further analysis at a different location. The Q-Impact 50 automatically corrects the test results for energy loss due to air and mechanical friction according to the ASTM standards.

The Q-Impact 50 fully conforms to ASTM D256, ISO 179 and ISO 180. The test results are automatically corrected for energy loss due to air and mechanical friction as required by ASTM and ISO standards.
