Rockwell Hardness Tester — MOE Lab Tender Details

Rockwell Hardness Tester

A bench-top industrial-standard tester for accurate measurements of Rockwell hardness
Learning Outcomes
Hardness testing using classical Rockwell methods according to ISO 6508 and ASTM E18

Specifications
Supplied with 2 indenters
120° Spheroconical Diamond – HRA, HRC, HRD
1/16” Tungsten Carbide Ball – HRB, HRF, HRG
Further Indenters available if required for additional test scales
Test Loads - 60 kgf, 100 kgf, 150 kgf
Pre-load - 10 kgf
Dwell time – 3 seconds
Display resolution - 0.1 HR
Workspace up to 250 mm high enables large workpieces to be tested
Automatic loading control
Resolution a minimum 0.1 digits
4-digit display, toggle switch for indenter selection (diamond or ball) and mean value display
Load application through spring forcé
Nose mounted indenter – for test point visibility and access to hard to reach test points – no need for test point illumination and goose neck indenters
Specimen is raised to the indenter, not the indenter down to the specimen – allows improved force application accuracy and removes the need for a specimen clamp to stiffen the load frame.  No specimen clamp means faster test throughput and reduced indenter damage
Range of interfaces, depending upon budget and data requirements
Range of anvils and XY stages rated to 300kg with options for larger travel –up to 50 x 50mm
6 points of calibration, including hysteresis, in the machine firmware for more reliable test results
Motorised leadscrew option for improved productivity and laboratory throughput
Automatic configurations are available for use in robotic cells
Data export for digital results storage in a variety of formats including testXpert II via RS232
Nett Dimensions and Weight: 800 mm high x 670 mm depth x 260 mm wide, 90kg
