Plastic Pipe Falling Weight Impact Tester China Manufacturer
Drop Weight Impact Tester is intended to determine the resistance to external blows of thermoplastic pipes, sheets, fittings, glass, ceramics and other non-metallic materials under specified conditions by means of a falling weight.
The impact resistance of thermoplastic pipe and fittings is an important indicator used to evaluate the suitability for service and quality of processing. The resistance of the material to breakage during handling and installation is also can be reflected via this drop weight test, which helps in establishing impact test requirements in product standards.
The drop weight impact testing machine is applicable to PVC water pipes, PP pipes, PE pipes, drainage pipes, low-pressure feed pipes, core-layer foam pipes, double-wall corrugated pipes, various thermoplastic fittings, etc. Preconditioned specimens with low temperatures are accepted.
This falling weight impact testing machine adopts single-chip microcomputer control and double-tube guide structure. The falling striker has a nose with a hemisphere and combined with a cylinder stem at least 10 mm long. It is hidden inside the guiding tube rigidly fixed in the vertical position to ensure it falls vertically and freely. Type d25 and type d90 noses of the strikers are configured based on the various mass of strikers: Type d25 is for strikers of mass 0.5 kg and 0.8 kg, and type d90 is for strikers of mass equal to or greater than 1 kg. The falling striker can fall from a variable height which can be adjusted to any height up to at least 2 meters.
Test Principle
A falling striker with prescribed mass and shape is lifted to a given height and released to freely blow the specified position around the circumference of the test piece placed on a V-block holder. The test piece is examined by naked eyes for any shatter, crack or split on the inside of the pipe caused by the impact.
