In pursuit of even more quality control over our manufactured products, we have now added a Mitutoyo Hardness Tester to our range of equipment in Cairns.
This unit is a HR-521 Model and has many attractive features.
- Multiple test force generation for Rockwell, Rockwell Superficial and Brinell hardness.
- Dolphin-nose indenter arm for easy reach of interior (min. ø40mm/ø22mm*) and exterior surfaces. *When using an optional diamond indenter.
- Real time electronic test force control for accurate loading. This perfectly eliminates load force overshooting.
- Indenter escape function for continuous testing at fixed table position. This eliminates instability caused by the table retraction.
- Auto-stop elevation table and automatic preliminary test force loading to provide stable test force generation.
Due to its unique design, it is able to take hardness test measurements inside a circular object such as a bush or bearing, and we believe we will find this unique feature very convenient at times.
Combined with our XRF Analyser, we will now be able to determine metal composition as well as hardness of items that have been broken or damaged before we order material and manufacture a replacement.
