They feature simple operating procedures, pre-set test conditions and guided testing, streamlined data management, output for analytical data, and compatibility with high-speed cameras. With these features, Instron's 9400 series drop weight impact testers become simpler, smarter, and safer. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*

• Non-destructive testing

High-speed camera shooting is possible! A drop weight impact testing machine that easily synchronizes video and load signals.

The "9400 Series" is a drop weight impact testing machine that can be used not only for punching but also for compression, three-point bending, and tensile-tensile impact testing. As the use of thermoplastics, composite materials, and metal alloys increases as high-performance materials for lightweighting in automotive, aerospace, and defense applications, the need to streamline the product development process and confirm the consistency between simulation and test results is extremely important. The weight is adjusted to maintain a constant strain rate and speed as much as possible throughout the elongation of the specimen during the impact event. 【Features】 ■ Capable of measuring high strain rates at impact speeds of up to 22 m/s ■ Tensile impact fixture test temperature range: -50 to +120°C (standard piezo sensor) ■ Transparent panels are placed around the test area, allowing for high-speed camera recording ■ Easy synchronization of video and load signals ■ DIC analysis to evaluate the longitudinal strain of the specimen after impact in a tensile impact state *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Measuring the residual strength of composite laminates after damage! Introducing the CAI test procedure!

The "Post-Impact Compression (CAI) Test" is a two-step test developed to evaluate the potential damage of composite laminate materials using test specimens. In the first step, a drop-weight impact testing machine is used to apply visible impact damage (BVID) to the test specimen. In the second step, a static universal material testing machine is used to conduct a compression test on the damaged specimen, measuring the residual strength of the composite laminate after sustaining impact damage. Instron's "drop-weight impact testing machine" is used for the development, fine-tuning, and verification of various material models. Please feel free to contact us for inquiries. 【Features】 ■ Impact energy from 2J to 70J (and beyond) ■ Minimum mass: 1kg (specimen thickness: 4.0mm or less) ■ Safety enclosure to prevent carbon fiber dispersion ■ Specimens can be adjusted from -70°C to +300°C ■ Pneumatic double-strike prevention mechanism to prevent multiple impacts on the specimen *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

In the field of food and health food research and development, an increasing number of companies are facing the following challenges: - Difficulty in exploring new functional materials and differentiation themes, leading to a depletion of research topics. - While they are collecting information from conferences and papers, they struggle to translate this into research themes directly related to their products. - They remain limited to competing similar products and follow-up projects, failing to establish uniqueness. - Although there are seeds of ideas, they struggle to elevate them to scientific hypotheses and build the necessary foundations for internal approval. Behind this lies a "wall of execution" that cannot be overcome by traditional information gathering and research processes. In this webinar, we will introduce a new R&D approach to break through these challenges. It is a next-generation research and development scheme that combines AI-driven hypothesis generation, which has achieved results in drug discovery, with scientific hypothesis verification by a food human trial CRO. This will allow for the transformation of vague ideas into scientifically verifiable projects, simultaneously achieving the construction of persuasive foundations for upper management and differentiation development.

Fujikohsuhou Industrial Co., Ltd. will hold an online seminar titled "Tips for Setting Laser Hardening Conditions" on July 20, 2025 (Wednesday).
