Precautions for protective clothing drop hammer tearing instrument

The protective clothing drop weight tearing instrument is mainly used to measure the tear resistance of various woven fabrics such as protective clothing and non-woven fabrics. It can also be used to measure the tear resistance of thick paper, plastic cloth, electrical tape, etc. It is mainly the national standard GB/T3917.1 'Impact Pendulum Method for Determination of Fabric Tear'. The instrument is composed of main parts such as machine base, support base and sector hammer. (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. is a manufacturer, and customers in need are welcome Timely call. In addition, in the process of use, the R&D engineer of (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. stated that some matters needing attention are as follows: Installation precautions: 1. In order to prevent the fan-shaped hammer from swinging during transportation, the instrument uses a screw to connect the fan-shaped hammer to the The support base is fixed and must be removed before use. 2. After removing the fixing screws, it must be installed on a solid workbench with good shock absorption. It is best to pad a 2mm~3mm thick hard rubber plate between the instrument and the workbench. Maintenance precautions: 1. The instrument should be wiped clean regularly, and the mandrel pointer sliding sleeve should be regularly refueled. However, the pointer and pointer baffle shall not have grease to affect the indication error. 2. The instrument should be placed in a vibration-free and clean work room. When not in use, remove the large and small weighting hammers A, B and long and short screws and store them well. The instrument should also be covered with a protective cover to prevent dust from falling into it. . 3. The weight-increasing hammer must not collide, so as to avoid the change of its center of mass position and weight. Main parameters: 1. Tear force range: A hammer: 0~16N; B hammer: 0~32N; C hammer: 0~64N; 2. Force measurement accuracy:≤±1 division; 3. Sample size: 100(L)×63(W)mm; 4. Incision length: 20±0.2mm; 5. Tear length: 43mm; 6. Combined test weights to meet different test requirements; 7. With 200cN, 400cN, 800cN, 1600cN, 3200cN, 6800cN, 13600cN and 30000cN test ranges; 8. The test unit is MN , CN, N, G, KG, OZ, LB are optional.

What Are the ISTA Standard Tests and ISTA Testing Equipment?
ISTA (International Safe Transit Association) standard tests are globally recognized transportation packaging test procedures designed to evaluate the safety and reliability of products and their packaging throughout the logistics chain. By simulating real-world transportation conditions such as drops, vibration, impact, stacking, and compression, ISTA testing helps identify potential packaging weaknesses before products enter large-scale distribution. ISTA testing equipment—including drop testers, vibration testers, incline impact machines, and compression testers—plays a critical role in accurately reproducing these conditions under laboratory settings. Proper selection and use of ISTA-compliant equipment enable manufacturers to reduce transportation damage, lower return costs, enhance packaging design, and improve customer confidence in product quality and logistics safety.
