On-Site Precision with a Clamp Brinell and Rockwell Hardness Tester

Destructive sample cutting delays production schedules. Additionally, transporting heavy metal components to a laboratory increases logistical costs. Therefore, quality control teams require rapid field testing tools. A portable Clamp Brinell and Rockwell Hardness Tester solves this challenge directly. Specifically, it clamps onto large workpieces to deliver instant, high-accuracy hardness readings right on the factory floor.

Dual-Scale Versatility for Diverse Materials

This specialized tester combines two major hardness testing methods in one portable frame. Consequently, technicians can switch between test scales effortlessly depending on material thickness and heat treatment.

• Rockwell Testing Mode: First, this mode applies direct penetration loads using a diamond or ball indenter. As a result, it evaluates hardened steels, structural alloys, and finished components rapidly.

• Brinell Testing Mode: Second, it utilizes heavy test loads and larger carbide balls. Thus, it produces wide indentations that accurately average out non-uniform grain structures in raw castings and forgings.

Furthermore, strong mechanical clamping prevents workpiece movement during load application. Because of this, users achieve laboratory-grade repeatability without permanent laboratory setups.

Key Industrial Benefits

• Non-Destructive On-Site Testing: Importantly, it tests large pipes, steel plates, and shafts without cutting coupons.

• High Clamping Force: Meanwhile, robust C-clamps eliminate frame deflection under full test pressure.

• Wide Test Range: Similarly, it measures soft metals like aluminum up to ultra-hard tool steels.

• Operational Speed: Finally, rapid clamping mechanisms reduce overall test time per batch.

Portable Rockwell / Superficial Rockwell / Brill & Rockwell Hardness Testers. The principle and structure of this device is in accordance with ASTM E110. Meeting the requirement of ISO6508/6506 and ASTM E18 / E10. Designed to the basic principle of Rockwell hardness test. The test force is apply by screw and a calibrated U-sharp spring. Two indications are installed on the tester. One is Dial indicates the force value by measuring the deformation of the elastomer, and one precision screw micrometer used for testing the indentation depth
