    Progressive design

The attractive, modern exterior the DuraVision houses a number of
clever features. The use of PLC components is a guarantee for the
highest degree of process precision. The modular kit concept enables
the DuraVision to be completely tailored to your requirements.
The DuraVision is as equally effective in laboratory environment as
it is in everyday manufacturing processes.

 
    Saving time

Fully automatic brightness regulation, optimised autofocus, rapid turret and swivel body movements, plus intuitive operation, all help to reduce test cycle durations. After test completion results and test reports can be imported straight into your company network. Especially when testing smples with different shapes or sizes, the intelligent design of the machine allows adaptations to be  made very quickly, thus reducing re-equipping times.

 
    Software that shows the way: ecos Workflow

This ultramodern software technology paired with proven solutions for common hardness testing tasks is an unbeatable tool for saving time, optimising expenses and maximising performance! The ecos workflow principle opens up a great range of possibilities - from simple single measurement to row and serial measurement through to permanent data recording and report generation. ecos Workflow software guides you through the entire process- minimum effort guaranteed!
 
 
 
 
The new DuraVision 20/30.
Your door to the world of macro hardness testing.
 


 
 
Fully automatic image evaluation

One important factor in ensuring the accuracy of test results is the
measurement of the test indentation. Exact results can only be
achieved with clearly distinguishable test indentations, optimal contrast
settings and ideal brightness. The camera electronics regulate
picture settings independent of the operator, thus maximising image
recognition. Particularly when testing unpolished surfaces, this
function is a prerequisite for automatic, operator-independent indentation
recognition.


 
 
    Ultramodern autofocus technology

The autofocus function is based on the principle of direct pressure
gauging by which the integrated weighing cell registers exactly when
the indenter touches the surface. In this way the focussing can already be determined while testing.

 
 
    The joy of making contact: The interfaces

DuraVision is equipped with all standard PC ports and interfaces. An
ideal basis for important network usage and data export (USB 2.0,
RJ45-Ethernet, RS232, VGA, PS/2).

 
    Versatility

Users benefit from a wide range of freely selectable test methods
and conversions according to DIN EN 50150, EN ISO 18265 and
ASTM E-140 - all of which are part of the standard programming
in the hardness tester.

 
    The new geometry of the nose cone simplifies access to
less accessible test points.
 

    The nose cone is composed from two parts. Each could be
removed according the geometry of the sample.
 
 
 
The new DuraVision 200/300.
Rapid individual measurements in a fully automated test cycle.
 

Motorised test unit

The motorised test unit allows the test space to be enlarged and
compact measurements to be made without increasing the operating
height. The resultant operator ergonomics are a significant step
forward in terms of working conditions. Operation of the vertical unit is
steered using a two-handed control unit. The test unit is attached to the device.
 
    Absolute safety

As a European manufacturer we welcome our obligation
to comply with CE conformity guidelines and the DuraVision
corresponds with the highest international standards. By
using precious components and materials we are also able to comply
with North American safety standards (control unit ‘UL-listed‘ for
the highest standards of fire resistance for plastic covers).
    Material and technology

Whether subjected to a 1 kgf or 3000 kgf test load, the rigid cast iron stand guarantees absolute test stability for the entire range of loads.
    Versatility

The standardised diameter correction system integrated into
the device makes the testing of cylindrical and conical surfaces
much easier.
    Fully automatic test cycles

The measuring process begins immediately after the work
piece has been clamped. After measurement the test unit is
removed automatically. This is particularly important for serial
testing as immense time savings can be made.

The optional purchase of an extendable table ensures stability
for heavy parts. Bigger sample surface is accessable
for testing.

 
 
Hardness testing software that shows the way.
ecos Workflow for DuraVision
 

 
    Workflow in five steps

Specimen, method, position, result and history are the five
workflow steps. Logic, transparency and simple operation are
the cornerstones of the consistent development of our ecos
software solution that has already proven its worth. Available
in 5 standard languages (DE/EN/IT/FR/SP).
 






  Single measurement
This function allows individual test points to be set at will. Measurement can be started directly from the surface view or from the overview camera.

Series measurement
One or a number of test series with positional coordinates can be measured. Measurement can be started directly from the surface view or from the overview camera.
 



CHD/Nht/Rht measurement
One or a number of test series for according to standard CHD/Nht/Rht determination of test specimen. Measurement can be started directly from the surface view or from the overview. For Nht measurement additional core hard points can be defined separately.

 

 
Serial testing

A test point wizard is available for serial , CHD, Nht or Rht testing.The wizard supports you when carrying out standardised serial tests (EN ISO 2639, 10328, 50190).


  Intuitive operation

The software informs the operator which lens and indenter are currently in position. The lens and indenter can be swiveled into position by clicking the touch display.


     
Autofocus

Automatic specimen height recognition produces automatic focussing.


  Statistics and graphs

All test results are presented as clear figures, tables or diagrams.



 
Ultimate data security.
All test information is stored in a clear and comprehensible format.
 

 


Efficient data management

The multiplicity of readings generated during comprehensive quality assurance procedures requires the IT-based QC systems to guarantee
the highest standards of precision and availability. Complete documentation
and the secure allocation of readings to the respective work pieces are of particular
importance. The export tool integrated into the ecosWorkflow software provides the required interface . The risk of data errors in the recording procedures is kept to an absolute minimum.
  Customised data export functions

ecos Workflow software enables the user to export PDF documents and two types of excel document directly. XML format functionality allows the system to be Q-DAS-Ready. Every specimen measured is stored as an individual file to ensure maximum data security.


Direct printing

A standard feature of all versions of this model is the ‘direct print’ function. This allows the user to make an immediate print-out of a test report on any printer connected to the system.

 
 
Customised test reports.
Documenting test results.
 
 




Layout options

Whether using integrated and standardised forms or company-specific reporting methods, the versatile and extremely convenient form and report generator
enables you to generate your own documents and test reports..
  1. Add your corporate logo to the test
report

2. Separate fields for specimen
descriptions and test parameters

3. Other freely definable
spaces

4. Bar charts, statistics,
line graphs etc.


5. Space for test reading tables,
statistical information etc.


An overview of the key benefits.
We increase value-for-money.
 
 


 
  One lens – two-fold enlargement

Intelligent interaction between the optical system and the software has made it possible to double the magnifications spectrum provided by the lens - while maintaining the same high standard of image quality.



Standard features – no surcharge


The unique 2-step zoom is a standard feature of the entire DuraVision series, from basic through to high-end. This saves using additional lenses and thus reduces expenditure.

 
    Impact protection – with or without fixed work pieces

Beside the capacity to clamp the work piece according to the standards, the nose cone also provides ideal protection to lenses and indenters. If the two nose cone inserts are removed the lens and indenter are still protected, even without clamping.

Quick-change technology

If dismantling of the nose cone is still necessary it can be removed
quickly thanks to the applied system similar to a „bayonet lock“.

A variety of bracing options

Depending on the geometry of the test piece the user can decide whether to use one or two nose cone inserts. Inserts can be changed in seconds – without the need to remove the entire nose cone.

 
    Work ergonomically
Not every operator is the same size. The touch display can be moved in all directions and adapted to the height and convenience of each individual operator. If required, the display can also be mounted on the lefthand side of the machine.

More space to test
The compact structure of the individual components results in an enlargement of the overall test space, thus opening up more options, particularly in terms of large test pieces.

At home in factories and laboratories
Not only does the DuraVision series perform well in clean laboratories, its robust build also makes it ideal for industry environment.
 


 
  Modular construction

Intelligent design enables the machine to be subsequently upgraded from a swivel body to a 6-fold turret. The test table can be extended simply by quick-change add-on tables, and a ring light can be integrated for Brinell tests.Safe and proper storage as well as sufficient space can be guaranteed for accessories and test blocks in the optionally available base/tool cabine.



 

 
  Perfect brightness settings

Manual light setting and the pre-definition of different surfaces are no longer necessary. The high-performance lens system works together fully automatically with the Power LED technology to find the ideal brightness for every surface.




 
Options.
Adapt the DuraVision to suit your needs.
 
    6-fold turret
A true all-rounder. The turret can be used freely with various indenters and lenses depending on requirements making the DuraVision a true allrounder. Hence, you can cover the full range of test methods and hardness values with just a single machine.

Extremely fast
Not only does the 6-fold turret rotate at a great speed, it also recognises the shortest rotation way to the selected position.


 


 
  No collisions

Along with the nose cone, the turret, indenters and lenses are well protected from unwanted contact with the test piece.



 

 
  14-fold zoom expansion

One lens – 14 zoom levels: This option has allowed the lens system to enable each lens to increase its performance to up to 14 zoom levels. You are reducing expenditure on lenses while increasing the scope of test options!




 
    Ring light
Optimal lighting for difficult surfaces: Particularly with Brinell tests on cast iron parts or non-ferrous metals the use of the powerful LED ring light ensures test indentations can be analysed ideally. Can be used with the lenses 2.5x, 4x and 10x.

Rapid mounting
The ring light can be mounted and removed in seconds. Mounting the light is childsplay.


 


 
  X & Y axis guide with a digital display

Manual serial measurement: The X-Y cross slide enables the device to move to several test points on the X and Y axes at ease. The software allows to save a pattern or to load a pattern, which has already been saved. Whether serial measurement, Nht, Rht or CHD runs, ecosWorkflow is a reliable assistant when positioning each test point with ultimate precision.



 

 
  Extendable table for test anvil

Even larger test anvil: By using the stable extendable table the DuraVision 200/300 test anvil can be enlarged to a total area of 740 x 415 mm. Its modular construction makes the addition of an extension on the left or right side to be completed in seconds. Each extended table could support workpieces up to 200 kgf.
