ISO 13802 Plastics - Verification of Pendulum Impact Testing Machines - Charpy - Izod and Tensile Impact Test

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 13802 testing. ISO 13802 specifies the frequency and methods for verification of pendulum impact test machines used for the Charpy impact test, Izod impact test and tensile impact test as described in ISO 179-1, ISO 180 and ISO 8256, respectively.

ISO 13802 Plastics - Verification of Pendulum Impact Testing Machines - Charpy - Izod and Tensile Impact Test

Verification of instrumented impact machines is covered provided that the geometric and physical characteristics of the instrumented machines are the same as those of the toolless machines. The force/work verification of instrumented machines is not covered by this International Standard.

ISO 13802 is an international standard that deals with the validation of pendulum impact testing machines used for Charpy, Izod and tensile impact testing of plastics. This standard provides guidelines and procedures to ensure these testers are properly calibrated and functioning properly. The tests covered by this standard involve subjecting plastic samples to impact forces and measuring their response, which is an important aspect of evaluating a material's toughness and impact resistance.

Methods for verifying the geometric and physical properties of different parts of the testing machine are described. Some geometric features are difficult to verify on the assembled instrument. It is therefore assumed that the manufacturer is responsible for verifying such features and providing reference planes on the instrument that enable correct verification according to this International Standard.

These methods are for use while the machine is being set up, repaired, transported, or checked periodically. A pendulum impact testing machine validated and considered satisfactory according to this International Standard is considered suitable for impact testing with different types of unnotched and notched test specimens.
