Impact Testing Machine
Product Code : LSK-CL-10595
Impact Testing Machine (SKU LSK-CL-10595) is a pendulum impact tester for both Charpy and Izod tests. The pendulum is released from a set height, breaks the specimen and swings on, and the energy absorbed is read from a maximum pointer on a dial scale. It is used in strength-of-materials practicals in engineering colleges and polytechnics. Science Lab Supplies supplies the machine from Ambala, India to institutions, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The pendulum runs on antifriction bearings and has two starting positions: the upper one for Charpy and the lower one for Izod. It is held by a self-resetting latch that opens only when the release lever is operated, and two strikers plus one combined support fit the pendulum and base.

Applications and Experiments for the Impact Testing Machine
The machine is used to measure the impact energy a specimen absorbs when broken by a swinging pendulum, a basic indicator of toughness. It is a standard strength-of-materials practical in mechanical and civil engineering degrees and diplomas, and in materials-testing modules at technical training institutes.
- B.Tech / B.E. mechanical and civil engineering: Charpy and Izod tests in the strength-of-materials lab.
- Diploma mechanical engineering: comparing the toughness of materials.
- Relating absorbed energy to the drop and rise of the pendulum.
- TVET materials-testing courses: supervised impact testing.
The energy absorbed is the difference between the height of drop before rupture and the height of rise after it. The swinging pendulum can cause injury, so keep the swing path clear and operate the machine only under supervision.
Standard Scope of Supply
The machine is supplied with its pendulum on antifriction bearings, lever-operated release and self-resetting latch, dial scale with maximum pointer, two strikers and one combined support for Izod and Charpy testing. Test specimens are not included.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the machine run both Charpy and Izod tests?
Yes. The pendulum has two starting positions, the upper one for Charpy and the lower one for Izod, and two strikers with one combined support are provided for the two methods.
How is the impact energy read?
After the specimen breaks, the maximum pointer on the dial scale gives the reading, based on the difference between the pendulum's height of drop and height of rise.
How is accidental release prevented?
The pendulum rests on a self-resetting latch in its starting position, and the release latch works only when the release lever is operated.
Who supplies the Impact Testing Machine?
It is supplied by Science Lab Supplies from Ambala, India, with quotations prepared for colleges and institutes and for tender contractors and distributors.
