Impact Resistance of Plastic Films

Presto’s Impact Resistance of Plastic Films is used to measure the impact of the weight that dropped from a certain height on the thermoplastic films under some specific conditions. The weight if the free falling dart that damages the quality of the plastic films. The testing device is used in plastic industries to measure the strength and stability of the plastic films, and other relate products. It is also known as Dart Impact Resistance testing device that determines the maximum load that destroys the material.

The test is performed on the specimen by providing the sample to the hemispherical dart. The sheet on which the test is performed is clamped appropriately on the machine, and the height of the dart is set at a particular angle. This lets the specimen fail up to 70%. The Impact resistance tester of plastic film is an extremely beneficial tool that controls the peak strength and normal characteristics to speed up the setting of production in order to conclude the quality of the plastic films and related materials appropriately and efficiently.

The test method is performed to measure the strength and reliability of the thermoplastic and plastic films. The testing device is also provided with the necessary configuration setting of dart height and weight. The test results that are collected from the test help to measure the quality of the material and to evaluate the quality for end use. The instrument is provided with the digital panel and an electromagnetic dart holder that releases the dart on a single press of a button.
