Drop Hammer Impact Testing Machine Engineered to Deliver Precise
Impact Force Testing and Material Failure Assessment for Control
Product Description:
This testing instrument, designed in accordance with the standard
Thermoplastics pipes — Determination of resistance to external
blows — Round-the-clock method, is extensively employed for
external impact resistance testing of plastic pipes, plastic sheets
and various non‑metallic materials.
In the field of plastic piping testing, it is applicable to a full
spectrum of piping products, including PVC‑U water supply pipes,
low‑pressure water supply pipes, core‑layer foam pipes, double‑wall
corrugated pipes, Krah pipes, steel‑belt reinforced pipes, PE water
supply pipes, MPP power pipes, hollow‑wall winding pipes and CPVC
power pipes.
Instrument Features:
1.Triple Safety Protection: Three-level safety protection is
configured, consisting of first-stage protection for the specimen
door, second-stage protection for the observation window door, and
third-stage protection for upper and lower limit positioning.
2.High-Speed Lifting: Driven by a high-torque stepper motor, the
lifting rate reaches up to 250 mm/sec, completing a full stroke
from 0 to 2 meters in only 8 seconds.
3.Intelligent Hovering Control: The machine is equipped with a
multi‑segment speed control program, ensuring stable suspension of
the hammer body and accurate, drift‑free position control.
4.Aerodynamically Optimized Guide Tube: The drop hammer guide tube
is designed via 3D modeling with additional exhaust vents to
minimize wind resistance. Meanwhile, a reinforced hoop structure is
applied to the tube to prevent failure and deformation.
5.Pneumatic Hammer Gripping & Releasing: Instead of conventional
electromagnetic and electromagnet hammer mechanisms, a
high‑capacity pneumatic structure is adopted. The system uses a
300N long‑stroke double cylinder, with a beef tendon plate
installed on the hammer contact surface, ensuring stable hammer
operation and no mechanical damage. The full pneumatic design
fundamentally eliminates troubles such as cable bending, wire
breakage and electric leakage. An automatic pneumatic locking
structure further ensures safe and reliable operation.
6.Integrated Modular Assembly: The mechanical structure adopts
standardized aluminum alloy profile assembly, while the electrical
control system integrates a 7‑inch touch screen and Delta PLC. This
solution achieves process standardization, modular installation,
and features a lightweight yet high‑strength mechanical
construction.

Main functions:
This drop hammer impact testing system is extensively employed to
determine the external impact resistance of plastic pipes, rigid
plastic sheets and diverse non‑metallic materials.
In terms of plastic piping testing, it covers a full product range
including PVC‑U water supply pipes, low‑pressure water supply
pipes, core‑layer foam pipes, double‑wall corrugated pipes, Krah
pipes, steel‑belt reinforced pipes, PE water supply pipes, MPP
power pipes, hollow‑wall winding pipes and CPVC power pipes.
Defination:
True Impact Rate (TIR)
Upon completion of impact tests across an entire batch of
specimens, the ratio obtained by dividing the total number of
impact failures by the total number of impact operations is defined
as the true impact rate, which is expressed as a percentage.
Failure Criterion
A specimen is deemed to have failed if, upon visual inspection,
cracks, fissures or full breakage are observed after impact.
Indentations or surface discoloration on the specimen caused by
drop hammer impact shall not be regarded as failure.
