Notch Test with Charpy Impact Tester

Notch test or V-notch test is a popular name used for the Charpy Impact Test. It is a highly standardized test which helps to measure the amount of energy which is absorbed by the notched sample when extreme pressure is applied to it. This energy is considered as a pathway to study the ductile-brittle nature of the sample. The Charpy impact test is applied in the industries as it is easy to conduct and offer the accurate and quick results regarding the ductility and strength of the materials, but the results of the test are sometimes cannot be compared with other results.
