Light Load Brinell/Rockwell
Combination Tester
|
For companies that need a Rockwell Tester but also need some light load Brinell. Any of the AT Series testers sold in the Rockwell section of this website can be used to test Brinell. Setting are available for testing at Brinell loads of 62.5, 125, and 187.5 kg. Using the ASTM test method E103, which is an alternative to E10, a tester makes a test and measures the depth of indentation instead of the width - similar to a Rockwell tester. On some materials there can be a difference in relationship of the depth of a Brinell indentation compared to the indentation width. In this case operators can always go back and measure the diameter of the indentation although it is very small so the scope measurement is subject to more variation in optical measurement than larger Brinell indentations. |
- Operates according to ASTM E103 and E10 for light load Brinell testing
- Operates according to ASTM E18
- Not influenced by bending or sample deflection
- Simple (one motion), quick (two seconds), easy (any one can test), and accurate (even with unskilled users)
- The clamping shield permits the measure of big and irregular pieces
- Digital Rockwell and Brinell hardness display
- The test head removes for factory calibration/repairs

The clamping feature makes testing easier and more accurate in bad environments. |
Since the tester can test without
any elevating screw, users can test on the base of the AT-T stand. |
The test procedure consists of pulling the lever until it stops and releasing - all in two seconds. |
|
One reason the tester works so well is that the tester has a heavy-duty clamping feature, built into the design of the test stand. This clamping feature makes it easy to test on a large heavy test sample in a couple seconds. There is also a unique test-surface measurement feature that dramatically reduces the effect of dirt on the anvil or bottom of the test sample on the test results - results which can easily be completely ruined with a normal tester.
Also the tester prevents or reduces the chance for broken diamond indenters</span> (depending on the selection of the clamping shield) since the operator cannot contact the indenter with the test sample and shifting of large parts under load is prevented by the clamping - both common causes of breakage that can cost hundreds of dollars a pop. |
