The aim of this study is to quantify how much a real Fallhammer deviates from the idealised functioning, and what the differences between different Fallhammers in different laboratories are. Such a comparison has never been done and data have not been collected in a consistent way. Further it is the aim to develop guidance on the mechanical properties of the Fallhammer, which can be used for internal quality control, validation of the correct functioning of the Fallhammer, and preparation of Round-Robin tests. An established and verified mechanical status of a Fallhammer would greatly improve the quality and comparability of results and Round-Robin tests on the impact sensitivity of explosives.
