The NG-ImpactFall models utilize a pneumatically operated system designed to prevent secondary impacts during testing, significantly enhancing results’ reliability and accuracy. This system employs pneumatic mechanisms to quickly retract the impactor after it strikes the specimen, ensuring that it does not contact the specimen a second time as it might naturally do if left to bounce. Secondary impacts can skew results by introducing additional, unintended damage to the specimen. This would not accurately reflect the material’s resistance to a single impact event.

By eliminating the possibility of these secondary impacts, the pneumatically operated system ensures that each test measures only the effect of a single, controlled impact, as intended by the testing standards. This precision is crucial for obtaining consistent and reliable data, particularly when assessing materials for critical applications where impact resistance is a key performance indicator. The enhanced control over the testing process provided by this system contributes to more dependable outcomes. This facilitates better decision-making in material selection, quality control, and product development based on accurate assessments of material durability and safety.
