A pendulum impact testing machine is used to determine the impact strength or toughness of a material under impact loading by measuring the amount of energy the material is able to absorb. Understanding a material's energy absorption properties is critical in predicting how much plastic, or permanent, deformation the material will be able to withstand before failure and is an important consideration in research and development applications as well as for quality control and material acceptance purposes.
