Prevention
When setting up the tester provide facies for closing off the site, take suitable steps to
keep out personnel from the area of peundulum swing before testing. The installation
pian makes provision for mounting a priectve device which Is, however, not included in
the scope of supply. Make sure the pendulum is locked in place when inserting @ spec
‘men or handing tems inthe test oom.
“The machine should be operated by only ane person whose attention must not be dicar-
ted trom the test by other people et.
Prior o testing mount the colecting box.
Carry out repairs with maximum circumspection,42388 5
2 Purpose and range of application
“The pendulum impact testing machine serves for conducting impact tess. Itis designed
{or performing notchedbar impact tests ace Charpy.
‘The tests serve for judging metals, especially of steel and steel castings with regard to
their Behaviour at impact loads, The results parmit the supervision ofheatreatments and
the verfication whether a susceptibility to separation fracture exists.
‘ith the notched:-bar impact test acc Charpy, the specimen is freely supported by 2
abutments. The notch, behind which the specimen fractures, falls into the impact plane of
2 sirking edge. The notch impact strength results from the impact enargy for destroying
the specimen, divided by the orginal cross section ofthe specimen atthe note.
By means ofthe pendulum impact testing machine, impact bending tests ace Izod and
tension impact tests can be performed, too, For these, addtional devices are required,
whieh are delivered by the manufacturer on special order, too.3 Specification

3.2 Specification of pendulum impact machine
(see photos enclosed)
‘The pendulum impact machine consists of the free, the pendulum, the specimen mount
and the measuring device.
‘The base is designed inthe shape of an anvil block (107). For the purpose of mounting at
the piace installation, bores are provided inthe corners.
(On the bed plate, 2 columns (105) are mounted in which the pendultm shaft is carried
‘The pendulum is fastened at the pendulum shaft
‘The pendulum consists ofthe pendulum bar (102) and the pendulurr hammer (101). Inthe
pendulum hammer, the nosetype strking edge (202) i ited, suited ‘or notched-bar in-
‘act tests ace Crarpy. The space in which the pendulum swings is pal protected by
‘means of tubular frames.
Between the columns and the tubular frames; the pendulum mounts arranged. At the top
fend, this is provided with a paw (112), which holds the pendulum in ited position, For
‘leasing the pendulum, the paw! is connected withthe tipping device by way of Bowden
Wire, whichis arranged at the front column (105).
‘The tripping device consists of 2 contro avers. Conttol ever (104) is intertocked to contol
lever (110) mechanically. Control lever (104), by which the pavd (112) is operated for rele
‘sing the pendulum, can only be moved if contol lever (110) was operated previously.
‘This device compels the operator to use both hands for releasing the pendulum,
At the front ofthe pendulum impaet testing machine, the dial gauge fs mounted. The dial
‘and the pointer (901) are aranged init under glass. The dials designed in such a way
thatthe Impaet energy absorbed for destroying the specimen can beread directly
Fr collecting the fractions ofthe specimen, a protecting box (108) is scrowed to the rear
‘ofthe bed plate, The box is removed by the manufacturer before packing the pendulum
impact testing machine. The protecve box isto be remounted on the bed plate at erection
by 2 screws as represented in photo no 4231
‘Comment to photo no 423/1-2
‘The tipping device for izod tess is to be removed from the tuoular frame (103) when
using the pendulum impact testing machine for Charpy and tension inpact tests,[Link] 8
3.3. Description of performance
‘The pendulum with striking hammer (101) sifted by hand til it paws of it own in its
Fighest positon. Then ithas, as energy of position, the potential ene’gy ofthe pendulum.
When the pendulum is 'sengaged, it crops and strikes the specimen ints lowest
positon ‘Thereby the specimen is deformed or destroyed, respectively. The eneray
Fequired for that fs taken from the pendulum in motion. According to size of removed
energy. the pendulum wil ise more or less subsequently. Thereby tre gauge pointer (301)
'S defected, and the Impact energy absorbed for deforming or destcying the specimen is
indieated at the pertinent cial directly.
“The swinging pendulum is permitted to sving out, or slowed down by operating the pend
lum brake (108) manually Then the impact energy is read at the dial gauge (111) as indi-
‘cated by the gauge indicator (301) there.[Link] °

44 Directions for unpacking
‘Tne penciulum impact testing machine is packed in case from which itis to be taken out
carllly. Any use of force is to be avoided. The packing material is tobe removed, and all
paris are tobe cleaned carefully.
Fortranspert with iting gear, a steel ar can be put through 2 bores in column (105), to
Which transport ropes can be fastened. Steel bar and transport ropes are nt included in
the Schedule of parts supplied
4.2 Getting ready for service
“The pendulum impact testing machine does not require any foundation. Itis sufficient to
crect ton fm ground, and to fasten it there with stone bolts after alignment.
Before that, however, the tubular frames (103) are tobe demounted, and to be fastened
to the columns to the right and left (108) by tightening the screwed caps. Then retaining
{ube (113) s to be fastened to the column. Tiss effected by means ofthe supplied
Illsterhead screws, Subsequently the clamps (114) for securing the retaining tube are to
be joined by tightening the lister-head screws.
‘The nipple of the Bowden wire is o be suspended into the arresting bar ofthe retaining
tube, and a spacer (775) i to be fastened under the column bridge ty means of filister-
head screws,
‘The pendulum impact testing machine is aligned as folows:
“To determine the horizontal postion, a water lover is o be placed onto the support forthe
Charpy tes. For determining the vertical positon, @notch-bar impact specimen isto be
placed on to the suppor, the pendulum isto be sighty pressed on he specimen with its
Siiking edge, and the vertical postion isto be determined by means of an angle water-
level lai against the penculum bar. if deviations from the horizontal cr vertical) position
‘occur, these are to be removed by attaching suitable insets under the bed plate of the
Pendulum impact testing machine. A check ofthe two positons after tightening the stone
bolts and' after the first 100 pendulum impact tests is necessary.
‘The angle of the ifted and pawied is to be checked atthe pendulum bar by means of an
angle water-level, too. Witt pawing for Charpy tests, the angle has to amount to 160"

5 Performance of test
5.1 Manufacture of specimens
‘Specimens are to be used according to enclosed drawing 432 Ba. fig 1. The notch is
hey manufactured by miling or grinding, Ridged at the bottom ofthe notch, wich run
parallel with the notch axis, ave to be avoided or removed. The usual specimen is the
BYM specimen at a notch depth of 3 mm, The other specimens with ISO or Mesnager
notch are applied in special cases ony
5.2 Sequence of test
4. Littpendulum manually and paw it
2. Insert specimen. The notch-bar impact specimen has to be inserted in such a way
that the noten is tured away from the crecion of pendulum impact. For aligning
the specimen, the sating bar contained in the accessories is to be used.
{3 Tum dial gauge pointer (201) clockwise by means of knob (222), and setitto the
Value of 200). For setting the dal gauge pointer, the knob Fas to be pressed in.
4, Push safety catch (110) down using your right hand.
Attention! Lock of pendulum is removed.
5. After having lacked round and making sure that nobody is win reach of the
‘Swinging range ofthe pendulum, press release lever (104) down. The pendulum
tisengages and destroys the specimen
6. Waitt the pendulum reverses the direction of movement and starts swinging out
‘Then beng the pendulum to a standstil carefully by actuating the pendulum
brake (108)
7. Read postion of ial gauge pointer (201) to dial of gauge ané note it
8, Remove fractions of specimen, and prepare the pendulum impact testing machine
for a new test in the above order.423Ba "
5.3 Evaluation of test

‘The letter coding a indentifes the usual test conditions withthe pendulum of 300 4
potential energy, and ofthe Charpy tet at @ notch depth of 3 mm.
‘The notched-bar impact strength largely depends, among other things, on the shape of
‘specimen and notch, too. The values ascertained with diferent shapes of specimens or
notches are therefore not fit fer comparison,423.82 2
6 Attendance and maintenance
“The pendulum suppor is suffcienty provided wit lubricant by the manufacturer. Its not
expectant fr the user to lubricate the points of support.
“The supports ofthe pendulum brake (108), at the trip lever (104) . atthe safely catch
(Io) and at the paw (112) ae tobe lubricated wiht some drops of engine ol every six
months,
“The supports and the pendulum are always to be kept clean, and to be cleaned dally, i
required even between the individual tests. The bright pats of the pendulum impact
{esting machine are to be polished with a sof, somewhat oly piece of cloth once a week.
