The Class J – Charpy and Izod Automatic Impact Testing System for the Izod Test provides a specified distance from the striking knife center to the vice upper surface, which is measured at 22±0.2 mm. This distance is a crucial parameter in the Izod Test as it determines the position of the striking knife in relation to the vice upper surface during impact. By setting the distance to 22 mm with a tolerance of ±0.2 mm, the testing system ensures precise and consistent positioning for reliable test results.

The distance from the striking knife center to the vice upper surface is crucial for accurately aligning the test specimen and ensuring proper contact between the striking knife and the specimen during impact. It affects the transfer of energy and the resulting fracture behaviour, thus influencing the measured impact strength of the material. Therefore, maintaining a precise and specified distance of 22 mm is essential for conducting standardized and reliable Izod Tests.
