Radial Arm Brinell Hardness Tester - EF3000
Radial Arm Brinell Hardness Tester - EF3000 is a specialized Brinell hardness tester with integrated milling, designed to address the limitations of radial drills. Standard radial drills cannot handle loads exceeding 3000 kg while also securing parts or withstand the vibrations generated during milling.
TEST LOADS: from 10 kgf to 3000 kgf (98.07 to 29421 N)

Conventional Brinell Test
In most forges and steel factories, the standard Brinell test involves testing large parts after surface preparation to remove rust and scale. A grinding disk is often used for manual polishing, but this approach has drawbacks, including material heating, unknown material loss, metal dust production, and significant time consumption.
Once prepared, the sample is placed under a Brinell hardness tester, either manual or automatic. The resulting indentation is then measured with a microscope to determine the hardness value.

The Solution: EF
The EF3000 Brinell Hardness Testing Machine is a fully automatic system that completes the entire testing process with a single button press:
- Automatically detects and contacts the sample
- Performs milling to a programmed depth
- Applies the indentation and load
- Reads the indentation with autofocus
- Returns and moves to the next test position automatically
