Sample Preperation

Sample Preparation Equipment is used to prepare samples to specific shapes before a mechanical test is performed


Hollow Die Punching Machines

• Either manual or pneumatically operated punches are used to cut shapes from sheets of material. Dies are interchangeable and can cut square/rectangular, round and also dog bone type specimens

Notching Machines

• Notching machines are used for either Charpy/IZOD and tensile impact specimens. There are manual, motorized or fully automatic versions available.
