Both the automotive and aerospace industries continue to drive the development of lightweight steels, stronger aluminums, and composite materials.

In automotive and other safety-critical industries, impact testing is an important measure of a material’s failure properties. Properly testing both raw materials and molded components for their strength and durability can help engineers prevent failures, design lasting goods, and save lives.

The automotive sector is one of the leading industries driving the rapid technology development in the United States. 

The SI-1M motorized pendulum impact testing machine is for testing metals to Charpy and Izod standards, with available energy up to 450 Joules.
