STD-TE 43 IMPACT SLIDING RIG

Description

With the STD-TE 43 Impact Test Rig, a torsion bar is used to generate the resisting force. The spring rate of the torsion bar is varied by adjusting its effective length, by varying the clamping position. The torsion bar is connected to a torque transducer, allowing the impact forces to be sensed. A manually adjusted worm gear-box is used for winding torque into the torsion bar and a linear slide is provided for adjusting the effective length.

The impact motion is generated by a small hydraulic cylinder of the type used in punching applications. The associated hydraulic controls allow adjustment of the impact velocity.
