Hi,

I am looking for a way to test the impact force of a reciprocatingtool. I know there is drop testing but would I just have toincrease gravity. I would like to simulate the force of1500-2500lbs acting on the reciprocating rod as if the tool was tohit a piece of solid metal while cutting and stop instantly.

Any ideas are appricated.

Thanks,
