Instrumented Impact Tester Operation Procedure for Izod Specimen.

Abstract

A procedure was developed using instrumented Izod (cantilever beam) Impact Tester. This procedure can be used for testing various types of material such as: plastics, light metals, ceramics, and materials used in the non-metallic cartridge cases. There are two hammers available at present. A two foot pound, and 10 foot pound. The height of release of the pendulum is two feet, giving a striking velocity of approximately eleven foot pound seconds. An oscilloscope with storage display is used to record the results. (Author)
