Product Overview

The QR-SRQ Falling Ball Shatter Index Tester is a specialized instrument designed to measure the impact toughness of molding sand, expressed in terms of the shatter index. This parameter is an important indicator of whether molding sand can maintain sufficient toughness and durability during the molding process.

Since the direct deformation of molding sand samples is difficult to measure, the impact toughness determined by this tester serves as a practical substitute to evaluate molding performance.
