FBT-01 Drop Ball Impact Tester

De vigtigste variabler i testen omfatter:

• Faldhøjde: Justerbar mellem 300 mm til 600 mm (kan forlænges efter behov).
• Boldens størrelse og masse: Fås i størrelser som 23 mm, 25 mm, 28,6 mm og mere.
• Effektenergi: Den slagenergi, der genereres af bolden, der rammer prøven, analyseres for at evaluere materialets ydeevne under stødbelastninger.

The Importance of the Ball Dropping Test in Material Testing

De ball dropping test, a standard procedure in impact resistance evaluation, measures how materials respond to the sudden force of a falling steel ball. This test is particularly essential for safety applications, such as protective eyewear, to comply with ANSI Z87.1 standarder.

How the Ball Dropping Test Works

• EN steel ball of known weight and diameter is released from a predefined height.
• The ball impacts the test specimen, simulating real-world impact conditions.
• Observations are made on deformation, cracking, or penetration to assess the material’s impact resistance.
• Test results help determine whether the material meets industry safety and durability standards.

ANSI Z87.1 Compliance: Key Testing Standards for Eye Protection

ANSI Z87.1 specifies rigorous impact resistance requirements for protective eyewear. One of the primary methods to assess compliance is the 9.6 Drop Ball Test, which includes:

• Apparatus: A rigidly mounted headform with a 30 kg base, ensuring stability.
• Testprocedure: A 25.4 mm (1.0 in.) diameter steel ball, weighing 68 g (2.4 oz.), is dropped from 127 cm (50 in.) onto the lens.
• Assessment Criteria: If the eyewear withstands the impact without fracture or penetration, it passes the test.

Factors Influencing Impact Test Results

Several variables affect the outcome of a ball impact test, herunder:

1. Faldhøjde: The greater the height, the stronger the impact force.
2. Ball Mass and Diameter: Heavier and larger balls exert higher impact forces.
3. Materialeegenskaber: Hardness, flexibility, and composition influence impact resistance.
4. Clamping Method: Securely clamping the specimen ensures accurate results.
