The notched bar impact test is a standardized method (DIN EN ISO 148-1) for determining the toughness of metals. A notched sample is broken with a pendulum hammer. The energy required for this is a measure of the toughness of the material.
Why is temperature important? The toughness of many metals changes with temperature. Therefore, we carry out the tests at precisely defined temperatures.
Our equipment: Our testing laboratory is accredited according to DIN EN ISO 17025 and has a powerful pendulum impact tester up to 450J.
