Testing machine for impact bending tests

摘要

The testing machine has a sample magazine (1) from which an individual sample is extracted and transported by a slide (2) to a tempering unit (7), at which it is brought to a required temperature, before transfer to the test station at which it is impacted by the edge of an impact hammer. The sample slide is operated manually or via an electric, hydraulic or pneumatic stepping motor, the tempering unit having a combined cooling and heating system with a cylindrical metal block provided with axial flow channels for a cooling medium, enclosed by an electric heating coil.
