Instrumented Impact Testing

Impact testing today constitutes an important end product and fit for purpose test. Following manufacture many products will experience some form of service impact specific to their environment, it is the aim of the impact tester to replicate these service impacts in order to assess their fitness for purpose. The system can be used for:

• Polymers
• Polymer composites
• Metals
• Ceramics

Our Rosand IFW413 instrumented falling weight impact tester has features including:

• Tower Height: 1.3m
