Brinell Hardness Tester - QualiBrineller

Brinell Hardness Tester – QualiBrineller is the ideal tester for determining Brinell hardness values of materials with loads from 62.5kgf to 3000kgf. The rugged design of the tester makes it suitable for Production/Shop environment as well as lab settings. The Brinell Hardness Tester – QualiBrineller offers market leading price-performance ratio and the tester is available with or without built-in digital Brinell microscope with automatic image analysis software.

The Brinell Hardness Tester – QualiBrineller utilizes closed-loop load cell technology for load application and measurement. The load cell technology eliminates the need for handling heavy weights or high maintenance hydraulic load application systems. The tester sequence is fully automatic and the tester will guide an operator through the selection process of proper Brinell scale for different materials. The large LCD display also informs the operator of what indenter that needs to be used with the selected Brinell scale.

Application

• Suitable for Brinell hardness in production, shop floor, and lab environments
• Ideal for low to medium testing volumes

Features

• Innovative closed-loop load cell technology
  • Eliminates the need for handling heavy weights or high-maintenance hydraulic load systems
  • Absence of mechanical weights eliminates friction and makes the tester less sensitive to misalignments caused by vibrations
  • Highly accurate measurements within 0.5% for all test loads
  • Eliminates load over/undershoot from traditional open-loop or dead weight systems
  • Overall weight of the machine is approximately 50% less than the traditional dead weight type tester
• Can be supplied with built-in digital microscope, tablet PC with integrated automatic image analysis software, and/or automated test cycle
• Built-in LCD screen will guide the operator through the selection process of proper Brinell scale for different materials and will inform the operator of what indenter needs to be utilized for the selected Brinell scale.
• Selectable dwell time can be set via the LCD display
• Automatic test cycle
• Load application, dwelling, and unloading is performed automatically
• Improves accuracy and reproducibility of test results by reducing human operator interaction
• Optional stepper motor can be supplied to automate the lifting and positioning of the test anvil prior to load application, ideal for frequent testing or testing of heavy parts – See the Selection Guide section below for more details

Advantages

• Greatly simplifies the indentation and measurement process, allowing for more accurate results more quickly than traditional testers
• Can eliminate the need for separate microscope and PC
• Market leading price-performance ratio
