Cantilever Rockwell Hardness Tester MHRS-150T

Mitech MHRS-150T Cantilever Rockwell Hardness Tester, also known as convex nose dual Rockwell hardness, based on the mechanical principle of conical diamond or hard alloy indenter pressing into the sample surface to produce indentation, realizing the material hardness measurement by measuring the depth of the indentation. With novel appearance, stable performance, touch screen operation easy and real-time monitoring test environment temperature, it can solve the problem of ring, tube, groove type workpiece surface, convex workpiece surface while other general Rockwell hardness tester can not measure the workpiece Rockwell hardness testing requirements. it is widely used in metal processing and manufacturing, various metal material’s failure analysis and other fields like colleges and research institutions, and it is the precise and high-tech equipment to test the metal materials Rockwell hardness.

• Used for quality control in metal processing manufacturing
• Used for failure analysis testing of metallic materials
• Demonstration experiment for education and teaching in Colleges and Universities
• Hardness testing of materials in scientific research institutions

The Rockwell hardness test is taking the diamond cone with 120°apex angle or the hardened steel ball with specified diameter as the indenter to press into sample surface with specific test force, then get the Rockwell hardness of the measured metallic materials according to the sample surface indentation depth.

The Rockwell hardness measurement principle is shown as below figure. 0-0 is the position that the diamond indenter is not yet in contact with the sample. 1-1 figure is the indenter position under the affect of the preliminary test force, the indentation depth is h1. The preliminary test is to eliminate the influence to the testing result accuracy caused by the roughness of the sample surface. 2-2 in the figure is the indenter position under the influence of the testing force (the preliminary test force and the main test force). The depth is h2. 3-3 in the figure is the indenter position after dismounting the main test force. As the metal elasticity will recovery some degree after deformation, the really indentation depth of the indenter is h3. The plastic deformation caused by the main test force make the indenter pressing into the depth is h＝h3－h1. Rockwell hardness value is determined by the size of h, the greater the depth h, the lower the hardness, otherwise, the higher the hardness.

In the traditional concept, usually use a constant C minus h to represent the level of hardness, while the depth of indentation per 0.002mm as a unit of hardness. The hardness value obtained is called the Rockwell hardness value, denoted by the symbol HR.

 In the formula, c is a constant (for HRC, HRA, c is 0.2; for HRB, c is 0.26). The Rockwell hardness value HR obtained is an unknown number which is usually read directly on the test machine indicator when testing.

   It should be noted that the measured hardness values would be different with different indenter and test force. Therefore, the Rockwell hardness testing specifies 15 different hardness test scales according to the different indenter specification and test force sizes. And the HRB, HRC, HRA are the most widely used.
