ISO 14556 defines an instrumented Charpy V-notch pendulum impact method for metals, recording the force during fracture in addition to the absorbed energy. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What ISO 14556 Covers
It specifies the instrumented striker and data requirements so that force-time behaviour, initiation and propagation energies, and dynamic response can be obtained from the Charpy test.
Why It Matters
Instrumented Charpy data supports detailed toughness characterization, particularly in the ductile-to-brittle transition and for weld and research work.
Reading the Designation
Cited as ISO 14556 with its edition year. Confirm the edition and the specimen or notch requirements before finalizing fixtures and reporting. To configure an impact setup, request a quote.
Related Standards
ASTM E2298 is the ASTM instrumented method and DIN EN ISO 14556 is the German adoption.
