Automatic Brinell Hardness Tester
The BRE-AUT Series of brinell hardness testers are specially designed to handle high volume Brinell hardness testing in a shop floor or manufacturing environment. In addition to the traditional brinell test the BRE-AUT test heads are equipped with depth measurement which allows for very high volume brinell testing.
The BRE-AUT hardness tester tests the hardness based on the difference of penetration depth between preload and major load, using loads and indenters required by ASTM and ISO Standards for Brinell Hardness Testing. After the major load has been applied the tester will immediately display the corresponding Brinell Hardness. The displayed Brinell Hardness is calculated based upon the difference in penetration depth between the minor and major load.
With this system, testing time is reduced by 85% compared to the traditional Brinell Hardness testing method. All measurements are performed with the standard Required Load and Indenter diameter; hence all indentations can easily be optically verified.
