Information on the most widely used ASTM standards within the materials testing industry
Model: JB-300B, JB-500B
JB-B Series semi-automatic impact testing machine is used to determine the ability of metallic materials to resist impact under dynamic loads, in order to assess the material's performance under such conditions. This machine automatically swings the pendulum with the remaining energy after striking the specimen, and displays the scale on the dial. It has a simple structure, is easy to operate, highly efficient, safe and reliable, and is widely used in laboratories conducting impact tests in industries such as metallurgy, machinery, aerospace, and quality supervision.
It is designed and developed according to standard of ISO148, ASTM E23.
General Introduction
JB-B Series semi-automatic impact testing machine is used to determine the ability of metallic materials to resist impact under dynamic loads, in order to assess the material's performance under such conditions. This machine automatically swings the pendulum with the remaining energy after striking the specimen, and displays the scale on the dial. It has a simple structure, is easy to operate, highly efficient, safe and reliable, and is widely used in laboratories conducting impact tests in industries such as metallurgy, machinery, aerospace, and quality supervision.
It is designed and developed according to standard of ISO148, ASTM E23.

According to ISO 148, standard specimen sizes are 10 mm × 10 mm × 55 mm. Subsize specimens are: 10 mm × 7.5 mm × 55 mm, 10 mm × 5 mm × 55 mm and 10 mm × 2.5 mm × 55mm.
ASTM E23 “Standard Test Methods for Notched Bar Impact Testing of Metallic Materials”
ISO 148 “Metallic materials -- Charpy pendulum impact test”
BS EN 10045 “Charpy impact test on metallic materials. Test method (V- and U-notches)”
GOST 9454 “Metals. Method for testing the impact strength at the low, room and high temperature”
Key Features
1), Pendulum rising, impact, free releasing is realized as automatically by remote control box;
2), Safety pin guaranties the impact action, standard protection shell to avoid any accident
3), Pendulum will automatically rising and ready for next impact action after specimen breakout
4), With two pendulums (big and small) and corresponding two Dial scales to read test result.
