A Dart Impact Tester is a specialized device used to measure the impact resistance of plastic films and laminated materials by dropping a weighted dart from a specified height onto a test sample. This test, often referred to as the "dart drop test," is critical for determining the ability of plastic films to withstand impact during shipping, handling, and use. It provides vital data on the toughness of materials, helping manufacturers to assess the durability and reliability of their products. The tester helps ensure that packaging materials, such as plastic wraps and protective films, are robust enough to protect contents without tearing or puncturing under normal conditions.

Dart Impact Tester is high quality and standard-based quality testing equipment that is popularly used in the plastic & films packaging industry to check the quality and evaluate the impact resistance strength of the packaging material. Dart Impact Tester helps to measure the energy which is applied to cause an impact in a sample from a free-falling dart. This can be used to test a wide range of materials, including films, sheets and molded parts.

A Dart Impact Tester, also known as a Falling Dart Impact Tester or Drop Dart Impact Tester, is an innovative device designed to assess the impact resistance of materials like plastic films, sheets, and laminated products. By dropping a steel dart from a specified height and measuring the energy required to rupture the material, this tester provides crucial data on the material's resilience to impact.

How It Works
The Dart Impact Tester operates by securing a sample material on the device, followed by dropping a weighted dart from a predetermined height to impact the sample. This process measures the energy required to puncture or break the material, offering insights into its toughness and capacity to endure external stress.

Plastic packaging film is used by a wide variety of packaging industries due to its durable nature, flexibility in stretching and higher impact resistance. As they have maximum use and are utilized by many industries for wrapping up their sensitive products or used in household routines, they tend to experience a lot of wear & tear during their use. The films must be resistant enough to avoid cracks of bursting easily against a sudden impact. The most concerning situation encountered by plastic film manufacturers is a vertical free fall of load taken by the plastic film. Such a scenario can lead to the bursting of films and result in a damaged product.

However, one can avoid such product failure by conducting standard-based quality tests. To evaluate the impact resistance strength the user must perform Falling Dart Impact Test.

The Dart Impact Tester uses a single dart configuration to perform the test. It is a sturdily designed machine that conforms to international testing standards. This ensures that the test results are accepted globally and in a wide spectrum of industries. The specimen holding clamps are adjustable and allow a variety of specimens to get tested. The dart has a defined weight as per test standards. The dart holder works on a pneumatically managed electromagnetic technique. It allows a stronghold of the dart and quick release during the test. The fall height can be adjusted based on the requirements. The counties of tests performed are recorded on a digital counter. The evaluation reports can be used either as a quality monitoring result or for final use comparisons.
