DuraPro 1000 is a hardness testing module with a high definition 1/2” camera for fully automatic, standardised image analysis of optical testing methods. For hardness testing on unprocessed raw items the test unit is equipped with a milling unit to ensure the test surface can be prepared optimally. Load application is done via the tried and tested closed control loop method facilitating a larger test load range.

Areas of use
This module can be applied for a wide range of purposes as it uses both optical and depth gauging methods. The integrated milling unit means there is no need for any further manual treatment of test pieces prior to testing
|
|
Control unit and gauging electronics
DuraPro 1000 uses a Siemens control system for the entire milling and testing cycle. Gauging is conducted using standard G3 electronics and can also be driven by the Siemens SPS. The entire controls, LCD touch screen display for hardness testing, the Siemens operating panel and the operating buttons for the milling unit are contained in a compact control unit.

Fully automatic image analysis
Automatic image analysis facilitates excellent repetitive precision. Various surface settings can be saved along with the load and degree of enlargement. This ensures substances are always tested under the same conditions. To ensure the indents are displayed as well as possible and for setting purposes the DuraPro 1000 has an 8.4“ touchscreen panel that can be operated in the following languages: DE/EN/IT/SP/FR.
Meaningful statistics
All test results can be displayed as bar graphs or line charts with tolerance limits overlaid. Statistical considerations and result ranges are included as standard. Test reports and diagrams can be printed out via a USB interface.

|
Operating and controlling the milling unit
A Siemens SPS control unit is responsible for the automatic milling and testing cycle for the DuraPro1000. The Siemens OP77A control unit is used to set all necessary milling parameters and is labelled in the following languages DE/EN/IT/FR/SP. The control cabinet also includes buttons for functions such as start/stop cycle, laser pointer on, etc.

|
Data export
All hardness testing data can be transported with the optional export tool as .csv- or .txt via the Ethernet interface, facilitating continuous, unbroken data administration.
|
|
 |
|
Communication with plant/line controls
The Siemens controls can communicate with other control systems via Profibus facilitating simple integration into systems and machines. There are hardware inputs and outputs available for the connection of an emergency off button.

Suitable for various test pieces
The Durapro1000 enables tests to be carried out on a wide range of items. The fully automated test point preparation allows untreated materials to be subjected to hardness testing. The integrated grinding unit helps to determine the best possible surface conditions for hardness testing.
|
|
| |
|
|
 |
|
Positioning via laser pointer
In order to position a test point on a subject without immense effort the DuraPro 1000 is equipped with a laser pointer. This enables a test point to be accurately manoeuvred to from a remote position because the laser point can be very clearly seen on a test piece.
|
|
| |
|
|
 |
|
Setting the grinding depth
Grinding depth can be varied and set between 0 and 6 mm by the operator. The surface is checked with a test head before the grinding process is initiated to ensure the required grinding depth is achieved.

Additional options available:
- Automatic chip suction during the grinding process
- Heating/cooling for all electrics to raise the working temperature range from -10 °C to 50 °C
- Software for the automatic calculation of the average of three test points and the production of an average value for the Ethernet interface
