Zwick Materials Testing H' for Pendulum Impact Tester Zw/ck / RoellProduct Information Robotic Testing System ‘roboTest HIT25/50P Application The robotic testing system ‘roboTest H' is used for automatic impact tests at ambient temperature or on temperature-conditioned Charpy or Izod specimens. System configurations • HIT25P (25 J) or HIT50P (50 J) pendulum impact tester with motorized pendulum return and safety housing • Instrumented or non-instrumented pendulums according to the standard with nominal energy from 0.5 Joule up to 50 Joule • ‘roboTest H' robotic testing system with tempering magazine for up to typically 20 specimens • Industrial controller with testXpert® testing software and autoEdition2 automation software Advantages of the ‘roboTest H’ testing system • Specimen gripper ensures the specimen is transported securely and reliably to the pendulum impact tester support within 5 seconds. • Alignment of specimens on the support and initiation of the test are always performed automatically. • With instrumented testing the fracture mode (complete, partial, hinged and non-break) can be detected automatically as an option. • Manual tests are still possible by simply removing the robotic testing system. • Optional accurate specimen temperature measurement via thermo-couple • Simple, convenient operation of the robotic testing system via testXpert® testing software is unaffected by automation. • Safe operation of the testing system via 100% CE-compliant construction is guaranteed in accordance with the latest machinery directive. • Adding this roboTest H-system to an existing HIT25/ 50P with pendulum repositioning is possible without problems. Advantages of a robotic testing system • A high reproducibility of the test results is obtained because operator influences are excluded (hand temperature, moist hands, eccentric or inclined insertion of specimens etc.). • Qualified laboratory staff is relieved of routine jobs and is thus available for more complex activities. • The machine can be used during idle times (e.g. breaks) thus increasing the rate of utilization and allowing „quicker“ results.
