Impact Test
Description
The Zwick 5102 Pendulum Impact Tester is designed to perform Izod and Charpy impact bending tests and impact tensile tests on plastics and similar materials.
The machine uses pendulums with energies of 0.5, 1, 2 or 4J.
Absorbed impact energies are output on a digital display.
