CONVENTIONAL BRINELL TEST

The standard Brinell test in most forges and steel factories consists in testing of big parts with previous surface preparation to remove rust and scales from the samples. It is common to use a grinding disk to manually polish the surface but this method overcomes some problems like heating of the material, removing material to an unknown depth, production of metal dust, and huge spending of time.

The sample is then carried under the Brinell hardness tester which can de manual or automatic and the indent generated has to be read with a microscope to calculate the result.

MAIN FEATURES

Rotary tool changer with labeled slots for precision machining equipment, featuring a red surface and metallic components.

MOTORIZED TURRET

Up to 8 slots (or more) for different hardness scales indenters, different optic lenses, laser, even a milling surface preparation tool. Auto-rotating and auto-tool-switching for a complete automatic measurement cycle. For single or multi hardness test methods using only one tester.

Red and black industrial machine part with geometric design, mounted horizontally on a grey structure.

CLAMPING SYSTEM

Secure contact with the specimen is always maintained, even in the unlikely event of any specimen movement during the operation cycle. The clamping system assures complete stability of any test piece throughout the test cycle, even if it’s oiled, rusty or dirty.

Industrial CNC machine with labeled rotational and directional movements for manufacturing precision.

AUTO LEARNING SYSTEM

The Easyflag 3000 is fully motorized and moves automatically in any direction with centesimal precision. It is possible to program specific routes to test multiple samples in automatic succession.
