The POE2000 pendulum instrument meets the growing demand for accurate and repeatable impact testing of plastics, composites and ceramics for both IZOD and Charpy tests in accordance with ASTM and ISO specifications.
The instrument comes standard with the Dynatup Impulse data acquisition and analysis system to capture detailed load, deflection, velocity, and energy data throughout the entire impact event. A fully configured POE2000 also includes an instrumented tup/ striking edge and rigid interchangeable fixtures to deliver maximum mechanical performance. The result: repeatable, reliable, and high quality test data.
Features
- Nominal capacities of 2.7 J (2 ft-lbs) up to 50 J (36.9 ft-lbs)
- Standard configurations for ISO 179, ISO 180, ASTM D 6110, ASTM D 256
- Rigid, bi-furcated arm geometry fabricated from aircraft quality aluminum alloy.
- Balance, alignment and center of percussion maintained at center of strike.
- Easy and quick changing of energy ranges without having to change entire pendulum arms.
- Reduced-friction bearing shaft assembly and solid vibration-free base.
- Interchangeable anvil pads maintain center of percussion for a wide variety of standard, sub-size and custom specimens.
- Angle of fall is fully adjustable up to 165 degrees, enabling testing at non-standard potential energies and velocities.
- Clear protective enclosure shields the operator from flying test debris.
- Impulse data acquisition and analysis system included - accurately captures load and energy data throughout the entire impact event.
