Zwick's Notch Vision is an automatic measuring device for Charpy impact testing to ISO-U, ISO-V Charpy-V, KLST and DVM.
Measuring takes place automatically when the specimen is entered into the equipment, without specimen contact, resulting in better reproducibility and easy calibration.
The contact-free measuring reduces operator errors.
Notch Vision's measuring results are added to the test results from the pendulum impact tester to determine the precise impact energy.
The measuring and test results can be saved and transferred using Testxpert II, reducing potential data errors and improving data traceability.
A tolerance monitoring system informs the operator if results lie outside specified parameters.
It recognises the smallest dimensional changes, eliminating errors in dimensions caused by notch tool wear.
New specimen types and customer-specific tolerance parameters can be individually generated and stored via parameter sets.
Notch Vision can automate test procedures where the entire sequence is performed using robots, starting with specimen preparation.
