Impact test

The objective of this test is to determine whether the tray has sufficient mechanical strength to withstand hidden stresses.

Test methods

The test method is based on the standard IEC 600068-2-75 which defines an impact on the test object using a pendulum hammer in accordance with the specifications defined by the manufacturer. The product is impacted at different points.

These specifications will define the weight and height from which the hammer strikes.

Approximate energy (J)	Hammer weight (kg)	Fall height (mm)
2	0.5	400
5	1.7	295
10	5	200
20	5	400
50	10	500

If the test is applied to a tray made from an insulating material, it will need to be prepared in advance.
