Energy Absorbed At Fracture (Product Code: SLE/ETP/03) is a small-scale, bench-mounted notched-bar impact tester used to measure how much energy a material absorbs as it breaks, in engineering and materials science teaching labs. A pendulum on low-friction bearings, an angular encoder at the pivot, an instrumentation unit and a power supply work together behind an interlocked guard, giving students a safe introduction to impact testing. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

A notched bar is placed in the tester, the pendulum is raised and released, and it swings down to strike and break the specimen. The pendulum rises less on the far side than it would have with nothing in its path, and that shortfall in height is the energy the specimen soaked up as it fractured. The angular encoder tracks the pendulum's position throughout the swing, so the angles are measured electronically instead of being read from a pointer by eye.
Testing different materials, or the same material with different notches, shows why some parts fail in a tough, ductile way and others snap in a brittle manner — the practical question behind the impact tests used in industry. Level the frame with its adjustable feet before a session, keep the interlocked guard closed during every swing, and examine each fracture surface afterwards alongside the recorded energy.
ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the OEM that produces the Energy Absorbed At Fracture tester at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Engineering colleges, polytechnics, technical institutes, dealers and importers buy it directly from the maker rather than through a trading house.
Because the tester comes factory-direct, questions about specimens, spare parts or additional units are answered by the manufacturer — just ask us. Read more on our company profile.

What does the Energy Absorbed At Fracture tester measure?
The Energy Absorbed At Fracture tester (SLE/ETP/03) measures the energy a notched specimen absorbs when a swinging pendulum breaks it. An angular encoder at the pivot tracks the pendulum's position so the energy absorbed can be found from its swing.
What is supplied with the Energy Absorbed At Fracture tester?
The Energy Absorbed At Fracture apparatus consists of a main unit with the pendulum in a rigid frame, an instrumentation unit and a power supply. Ask us through the contact page about suitable test specimens for your course.
Is the impact tester safe for student use?
The Energy Absorbed At Fracture tester is fully enclosed, with an interlocked guard covering all moving parts, making it a safe way to introduce impact testing. Students should still work under supervision and follow the lab's safety rules.
How is the tester levelled?
The Energy Absorbed At Fracture tester has adjustable feet on its base. Set the unit level on a firm bench before testing so the pendulum swings true and the readings from the angular encoder remain consistent.
Who manufactures the Energy Absorbed At Fracture tester?
The Energy Absorbed At Fracture tester is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) as the OEM, at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplied factory-direct to colleges, dealers and importers.
Is a calibration certificate available?
Whether a calibration certificate can be supplied with the Energy Absorbed At Fracture tester should be discussed with us at the enquiry stage. Mention it in your request on the contact page along with your quantity.
Can ScienceLab quote the tester for export?
Yes. ScienceLab quotes the Energy Absorbed At Fracture tester direct from the manufacturer for institutions and dealers in India and international markets. Share the quantity, mains supply and delivery city or port through the contact page.
Quotations for the Energy Absorbed At Fracture tester come straight from the manufacturer. Send your requirements through our contact page, or add it to the enquiry cart with other materials testing apparatus.
