Novità

The semi-automatic hardness testing machines are now available without embedded PC and display. The low-priced Lite models offer the customer the option of using their own PC and monitor. The necessary interfaces are installed at the factory. Z12 can be added as an option.
The functionality of the Lite models does not differ from the standard DuraScan 10/20 G5 hardness testing machines. 

The Lite variants of the DuraVision handwheel model are for all those customers who have simple testing tasks and/or a small budget. The semi-automatic hardness testers do not have an embedded PC or display. The factory-installed interfaces allow the customer to use their own PC and monitor. In addition, the Lite models have an automatic swivel body and no clamping jaws. This means that only unclamped testing is possible. For clamped hardness testing tasks, a set of clamping jaws and clamping inserts can be purchased additionally. For a high testing variety and low tool change, the star turret with 7 positions can be purchased as an option.

This optional software module creates a panoramic view by photographing the sample surface using the evaluation camera. Individual images are stitched together to form a high-resolution overview image. With the "picture in picture" function of the evaluation camera, a live image is displayed in the "offline" image to enable high positioning accuracy, ensuring that the sample is still in the correct position and has not slipped. If a second monitor is connected to the PC, the panoramic image can be displayed on the second monitor with the "2nd Screen" setting. This makes positioning rows, test points and construction lines much easier, even without an overview camera. 

With the ecos pipeMASTER software module, seamless, welded pipes and pipe segments can be easily and quickly tested for hardness. ecos pipeMASTER fullfils all requirements for hardness testing on oil and gas transport systems according to the valid standards of the American Petroleum Institute (API). For the DuraVision G5, we recommend the use of Z63 nose cone insert for star turret, closed on one side. 

With the ecos image Master function, surfaces that are difficult to recognise can be better displayed and made visible. The functions of this software module allow extensive influence on the live image by adjusting the image settings. Brightness, contrast, sharpness and saturation can be fine-tuned.  In addition, it is possible to display only certain colour spectra. The processed image can be exported to Olympus Stream for further metallographic processing. 

Olympus Stream Desktop is an extensible image processing software for microscopy applications in industry and materials science. The software includes the following functions: advanced phase analysis, basic measurement functions (distance, angles, rectangles, circles, etc.), statistics and data export to Microsoft Excel, advanced measurements (magic wand, freehand polygon and interpolated polygon), report generation with Microsoft Word or Excel.

This solution is used to manually measure the ferritic or austenitic grain sizes of steel. It provides a single averaged value using the various standards available. (ASTM E112-13, ASTM E1382-97(2015), ISO 643:2012, GOST 5639-82, JIS G0551:2013, JIS G0552:1998, DIN 50601:1985, GB/T 6394:2002). Requires OLYMPUS Stream Desktop.

With this solution it is easy to perform asymmetry, multiple perpendicular lines and a fillet measurements, for a detailed and quantifiable measurement of the weld sample. These measurements are important to assess the quality of the weld. Requires OLYMPUS Stream Desktop.

Standardised interface for QDAS qs-STAT.
The measurement results in Q-DAS ASCII transfer format are exported with freely definable assignment of the K-fields and can be further processed. 

Specimen grips for testing thin metal sheets

• Single specimen holder for testing thin metal sheets

Machine vsce 35mm
Machine vise with jaw width of 35mm with a maximum clamping width 32mm. Includerd ixed jaws with prisms for cylindrical parts.

Overpressure system incl. maintenance unit for oil and water separator
The overpressure system to prevent dirt from entering the interior of the hardness testing machine has been further developed. It now includes a maintenance unit for an oil and water separator. The maintenance unit is mounted outside the machine.
