Charpy Impact Specimen - Laboratory Testing Instrument @ Malaysia

U / V Notchs Charpy Impact Specimen

Brief Introduction

The Charpy impact test is a standardized high strain-rate test which determines the amount of energy absorbed by a material during fracture. This absorbed energy is a measure of a given material’s notch toughness and acts as a tool to study temperature-dependent ductile-brittle transition. It’s widely applied in steel industry, university experiment, research department. According to standard dimension of Charpy impact specimens as following;
