Susumu Moriya, Makoto Matsumoto, Akira Hirahashi, Tsunemitsu Ozeki, Toshiaki Shiraishi, Ikuo Watanabe
Synopsis :
An automatic Charpy impact testing system has been developed for the Mechanical Test Center at Chiba Works, Kawasaki Steel Corporation, and is operating successfully. The new system has various functions such as the rapid control of temperature of specimens, automatic transfer of specimens from cryogenic bath to anvil, self-check function of test values and so on. The features of this system are as follows. (1) Automatic continuous impact testing has been successfully completed. (2) The test result has been fed back promptly to process management by linking the system to a host computer. (3) The SCARA robot provides the rapid transfer and setting of specimens with high accuracy. This report explains the specification and constitution of the automatic Charpy impact testing system, together with the results of the performance test on the specimen-transfer robot to be specially used in many developed apparatus.
