With overviewPRO, the brand-new overview colour camera with active LED coaxial lighting for DuraScan 70 G5 and 80 G5 machines, working and evaluating will be made much easier. The active, intelligent LED coaxial-lighting ensures uniform illumination and reduces the influence of ambient light. This is a major improvement for the operator, especially at workplaces with difficult light conditions. When using the live image mode and for creating high-resolution overview images, a second screen enables both pictures to be viewed simultaneously. In addition, the inspection points and test rows can be placed in the overview image already. The visibility of progressions on etched components is also improved. The 18-megapixel colour camera with active LED coaxial lighting is built with a USB 3.1 port.  

With ecos gearMASTER, a new function for all fully automatic DuraScan machines, the placement of test rows on gear wheel specimen is child's play. The core hardness points as well as the pre-defined course series are set at drawn 30° tangents at the tooth root and at half the height of the tooth. With the standard wide test-load range of DuraScan G5 from 10 g to 62.5 kg, all common specifications can be covered in one operation. Using templates, testing can be done quickly, efficiently, and reproducibly. The tool complies with the current guidelines for the stress-appropriate testing of teeth of a gearwheel and is available as a separate feature of ecos Workflow software.  

From simple single measurement and curve measurement through to sustainable data storage and reporting, everything is possible with ecos Workflow. At the same time, the software guides the user step by step from definition of the test method through to archiving of the determined measurement results in an easily understandable manner.

Minimum effort guaranteed!

ecos Workflow xCHANGE is the key to the functions of your EMCO-TEST hardness tester. ecos Workflow xCHANGE allows practically any customer-specific requirement for connecting a hardness tester to databases and data input devices to be satisfied, as well as enabling fully automatic or unmanned operation. Since ecos Workflow xCHANGE is based on the established XML format, interaction with it is simple and clearly structured.

ecosWorkflow is equipped with an integrated Calibration Information System (CIS). This innovative solution gives the user the ability to independently check the conformity of the hardness testing machine to standards. The system provides an overview of all calibrated methods and upcoming tests. The intuitive workflow principle guides the user step by step through the inspection process and documents the results.

A measurement data group can be created and selected before the test. All test results are collected in separate lists, allowing them to be represented clearly, exported or saved as a report at any time. Use grouped measurement data management to assign test data to individual users or user groups, components, batches or departments. In addition, frequently used test parameters can be assigned to the measurement data group in the form of templates (method, conversion, geometric correction). This significantly reduces the amount of work for the operator and the possibility of incorrect operation.

Accredited calibration laboratory to ISO/IEC 17025

Adherence to international standards in conjunction with reproducible measurement results and comprehensive documentation of test cycles is becoming increasingly important in national and international trade for our customers. At the same time, regular calibration of test equipment is often a prerequisite. EMCO-TEST is an accredited calibration laboratory in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025. This accreditation, in combination with incessant further development and continuous official monitoring of our calibration laboratory, ensures that the services we offer are always state of the art and compliant with latest standards.

Quality assurance with ISO 9001 certification

Quality assurance by means of a certified management system not only safeguards products and services, it is also a fundamental requirement for accreditation as a calibration laboratory in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025. This creates a dual level of security for our customers. Through independent, external audits it confirms that both technical knowledge and management structures for quality assurance are really state of the art.

Introduction to the world of hardness testing standards

The scope of our calibration service not only covers the German (DIN EN ISO), European (EN) and international (ISO) standards, but also those from the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), governing hardness testing and its calibration. We offer both calibration and consultation regarding the differences between international standard requirements, which means our customers are always on the safe side.

Calibration ex works

Simplifying everything to do with hardness testing naturally also means calibration ex works. This calibration service is undertaken in our factory immediately after production of the hardness tester and all devices are supplied from the factory with an approved calibration certificate. This in turn means that hardness testing machines can be used as soon as our customers receive them. This saves time and money.

Optimised determination of measurement uncertainty

The lesser the measurement uncertainty of a testing system, the greater the leeway within the specified tolerances for the products to be tested. Reduced measurement uncertainty can result in significant cost savings for customers. Comprehensive services from a single source include manufacturer maintenance before calibration, which can optimise the testing device. Furthermore, the EMCO-TEST calibration laboratory uses the very latest measuring equipment with highest levels of precision for calibration, which in turn reduces measurement uncertainty for our customers.

EMCO-TEST takes current events very seriously and, as a responsible company, contributes to the best possible protection of the safety of our customers and employees.
