Software Functions
- Absorbed impact energy in joules
- Impact energy as a percentage of the selected range
- Impact-strength calculation with valid specimen dimensions
- Specimen and batch identification
- Operator and test-date records
- Result comparison and statistical summaries
- Test-data storage and export
- Configurable report generation
- Zero and friction-loss checks
- Automatic pendulum return
Force-time, force-displacement and fracture-analysis curves require the optional instrumented striker and high-speed acquisition system.
Applicable Standards
| Standard | Application |
| ASTM E23-24 | Notched-bar impact testing of metallic materials |
| ISO 148-1:2016 | Charpy V-notch and U-notch impact test method |
| ISO 148-2:2016 | Verification of Charpy pendulum impact testing machines |
| ISO 14556:2023 | Instrumented Charpy V-notch testing with the optional instrumented package |
Standards compatibility depends on the installed striker, anvils, pendulum energy, specimen geometry, conditioning procedure, software method and current machine verification.

Why Choose This Model?
High-Energy 750 J Capacity
The QE-CPI750 is intended for high-toughness metals and weldments whose absorbed energy may exceed the range of conventional 300 J or 500 J impact testers.
Multiple Pendulum Configurations
Available 150, 300, 450, 600 and 750 J pendulum configurations allow the testing range to be matched to the expected absorbed energy. The required pendulum set is confirmed when ordering.
Computerized Results and Reporting
The software records absorbed energy, specimen information, batch details and test conditions. Results can be compared, stored and incorporated into configurable reports.
Full Safety Enclosure
The pendulum swing area is surrounded by a transparent safety enclosure. Interlocked access, controlled release, braking and emergency-stop functions reduce operator exposure during high-energy testing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a Charpy or Izod tester?
This configuration is designed for Charpy notched-bar testing of metals. It should not be advertised as an Izod tester unless an engineered Izod pendulum, fixture and verified method are specifically supplied.
Can it test sub-size Charpy specimens?
Yes. It supports 7.5 mm and 5 mm sub-size thicknesses when the correct centring fixtures and governing test procedure are used.
Is instrumented Charpy testing included?
Standard absorbed-energy measurement is included. Testing to ISO 14556 requires the optional instrumented striker, high-speed measurement hardware and compatible software.
Does the machine require anchoring?
Yes. A 750 J pendulum tester requires a stable, engineered installation. Floor capacity, anchoring, operating clearance and vibration conditions should be reviewed during site preparation.
Does QMN provide installation and training?
Yes. Installation coordination, commissioning, verification support, method setup and operator training are available.
