Amsler HIT 230F drop weight tester equipped for multiaxial puncturetest

Impact body with clamping ring and sample

The small drop weight tester for puncture testsWith a maximum impact speed of 4.4 m/s and a dropweight of 23.5 kg, this drop weight tester is ideallysuited for puncture tests to ISO 6603-2. One impressivefeature is the excellent test area accessibility, enablingrapid completion of test series including direct feedingof temperature-conditioned test plates. When it comesto efficiency and ergonomics, this drop weight testercan't be beat.

Range of applicationThe Amsler HIT230F is ideally equipped for multiaxialimpact puncture tests on plastics.

Its range of application includes material characteriza‐tion of standard specimens in accordance with estab‐lished

standards in research and development and qualityassurance.

• Multiaxial impact puncture tests to ISO 6603-2, ASTMD 3763, at room temperature and in extendedtemperature range.

Advantages and features• Safe, easy, reliable operation• Good access to test area.• Design allows flexible use of accessories plus easy

changeover.

• Intelligent safety system – no need to operate safetydoor when inserting specimens.

• Innovative clamping system enables fast, easyspecimen clamping.

• Tests possible over a wide temperature range withoutinstalling an expensive temperature chamber in thetest frame.

• Cost-effective external specimen temperature-condi‐tioning can be employed and/or existing devices inthe laboratory can continue in use.

• Innovative design throughout the force-measurementchain delivers very low-noise measured values,enabling reliable identification of characteristic mate‐rials properties in the force-deformation curve.

• Safety device plus operator-friendly specimenclamping for high specimen throughput.

• The drop weight is raised automatically; the dropheight can be set as required in a range from 0.1 m to1 m.

• High (4 MHz) measured-value acquisition-ratecombined with high (16-bit) resolution.

Basic instrument includes:• Evaluation electronics• Fixed safety device (front and rear)• Drop weight of 23.5 kg
