When a defined weight falls onto a specimen or component from a specific height with a determined impact energy and velocity, a drop weight impact testing equipment is used to calculate the energy needed to break or damage the material.
The common method for assessing a material’s resistance to an abrupt external force is a drop weight impact test.
This kind of test can also be used to determine the impact resistance of thermoplastic pipes in pipe testing. Standards like ASTM D2444 and ISO 3127 are relevant for this kind of testing.
The amount of energy absorbed by a material during fracture is measured by impact resistance testing, such as the Charpy and Izod impact tests. An impact resistance test involves applying a sudden impact load to a specimen with a notched “pre-crack.”
In the mechanical test known as the “drop weight test,” a predetermined weight is dropped from a predetermined height onto a specimen.
The appearance of the fracture surfaces is assessed after the drop weight test. Here, the ratios of the brittle fracture surface and deformation fracture surface are optically determined.
Remember to pay attention to the “drop weight” as well. The measurement of a bat’s drop is obtained by deducting the bat’s weight from its length.
A bat that weighs 20 ounces and measures 30 inches long, for instance, will have a drop of -10. The lighter the bat, the greater the drop weight.
The Global Drop Weight Impact Testing Machine market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
