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.

Decarbonization is currently shifting its positioning from "cost management" to "enhancing competitiveness," and we are entering an era where mere regulatory compliance is no longer sufficient. With the strengthening of sustainability labeling regulations and the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), the environmental value of products has transcended corporate responsibility and become a crucial element in market competition. On the other hand, many companies are facing challenges such as: - The complexity of CFP calculation and environmental labeling requirements makes it difficult to know how to proceed. - How to balance regulatory compliance with enhancing competitiveness (differentiation). - Difficulty in prioritizing ISCC certification and CBAM compliance. In this seminar, we will invite Wastebox Co., Ltd., which has extensive consulting experience in the environmental field, to introduce ideas and specific examples on how to connect responses to decarbonization and the circular economy to business growth from both "offensive" and "defensive" perspectives. ■ Part 1: "Understanding the Environmental Value of Products from Offensive and Defensive Perspectives: How to Leverage Decarbonization and the Circular Economy for Differentiation and Regulatory Compliance" ■ Part 2: "Why Are We Entering an Era of Product Environmental Value Now? (Tentative Title)" ■ Part 3: "Introduction of Services Supporting the Reliability of Product Environmental Value"

The requirements for quality management systems in the automotive industry are becoming increasingly sophisticated year by year, and a more nuanced understanding and appropriate response are required for obtaining and maintaining IATF 16949 certification. In particular, the application of Rules 6th Edition has led to changes in the audit process and certification requirements, making it essential to understand these accurately. In this webinar, we will clearly explain the latest trends in IATF 16949 certification and the key points of Rules 6th Edition from the perspective of auditors, directly relating to practical applications.

In the food industry, as the importance of ensuring quality and safety continues to rise, there is a growing demand for understanding international food safety standards and appropriately responding to the latest requirements. In FSSC 22000 Ver. 7, aspects such as "food safety culture," "risk-based thinking," "unannounced audits," and "supplier management" have been strengthened, making corporate responses crucial. In this webinar, Mr. Hiroshi Ideta, Regional Representative for Japan and Korea at the FSSC Foundation, will explain the latest trends in domestic and international food safety standards and the trends of certified companies. Bureau Veritas will introduce the key points of the FSSC 22000 Ver. 7 revision. If you are considering how to respond to the standard revision or want to understand the latest trends, please join us. ■ Part 1: "Domestic and International Trends Surrounding Food Safety Standards and Trends of FSSC 22000 Certified Organizations" 　　　　Mr. Hiroshi Ideta, Regional Representative for Japan and Korea, FSSC Foundation ■ Part 2: "Explanation of Key Points of FSSC 22000 Ver. 7 Revision" 　　　　Bureau Veritas Japan Co., Ltd., System Certification Business Division, Technical Department 　　　　ISO/FSSC22000 Auditor, Koichi Mukai
