Imatek has recently completed the successful installation of an IM100 Impact Tester at Firestone Industrial Products, NL. The new Impact Tester will be used to test and develop the impact properties of air springs and their component parts which are extensively used in suspension systems for the automotive and rail industries. Imatek’s IM100 is an instrumented Impact Tester providing impact speeds up to 6 metres/second and uses a variable mass system of up to 200kg to provide impact energies from 1000 Joules to 5000 Joules. Instrumentation is based around a 250KN precision load cell coupled to Imateks C3008 data capture system and a PC running the ImpAcqt system control and data analysis software. Imatek’s world-class ImpAcqt software is designed to allow for the configuration of the drop parameter, the data capture and the analysis of resulting data.
