Impact Tester for Polymeric Coatings

Impact Tester for Polymeric Coatings

Impact Tester for Polymeric Coatings

(OP)
I have been asked to design an impact tester by falling weight. I have been able to read up on them and understand more less how they work. This impact tester has to be able to comply with ASTM 2794.

So far I have design the graduated 40 inch cylinder with a maximum load of 8 lbs. I am running into obstacles when determining the form of the punch and the die. I want this impact tester to have a force of 300 lbs-inch.

Does anyone have any experience with this? Can anyone provide fabrication drawings or dimensions? Any help is welcomed.

Thanks,
AlkMech
