Hardness tester for train wheels and railways

Integral Wheel
Integral Wheel is a Brinell Hardness testing machine for train wheels and railway. Fully automatic Brinell test cycles up to 3000kgf with motorized turret, automatic loading, auto-focus and automatic reading. In order to make the operator’s work as easy as possible, it is equipped with a motor-driven rotating table, which can also move horizontally to load the wheel easily. By setting a fully automatic Brinell cycle (e.g. 3 tests at 120°, 4 at 90°, etc.) the motor-driven rotating table allows the tests to be carried out by programming the test points, working with the highest precision and considerably reducing the working time.The hardness tester is suitable to be connected with robots and production lines for completely automatic process without the intervention of the operator. The hardness instrument exports results in different format (csv, txt, PDF, ..) and can communicate with QDAS, ASM, PCI and other systems.
The standard instrument version features our classic head for Brinell, Rockwell and Vickers scale hardness tests. Our customers who need to test untreated parts choose to install the Revolver head, which includes milling slots for surface preparation.
Manufactured by Easydur AFFRI Group

BRINELL HBW
Test loads: from 10 kgf to 3000 kgf (98.07 to 29421 N)
Brinell ISO 6506 / ASTM E-10: HBW 1/10 - HBW 1/30 - HBW 2.5/15.625 - HBW 2.5/31.25 - HBW 2.5/62.5 - 2.5/187.5 - 5/25 - 5/62,5 - 5/125 - 5/250 - 5/750 - 10/100 - 10/250 - 10/500 - 10/1000 - 10/1500 - 10/3000
Main features
XY ROTATING TABLE

Bring the table to the front to load the sample with your lifting system. Move the stage to the back, make a Brinell test and then rotate the table to test the wheel at different angles. Fully motorization available.
THE MILLING TOOL FOR SAMPLE SURFACE PREPARATION
This is a milling tool included as a TURRET POSITION which prepare the surface of untreated parts before the hardness test. Our special milling system leaves a mild edge, without sharp corners. The milling depth can be programmed in the software, with centesimal precision. It is possible to mill parts up to 65 HRC and small parts without any fixtures, thanks to our special clamping system.
