Hardness Testers TPC

Summary
Portable hardness testers TPC-7 are designed for non-destructive hardness testing of carbon steel products using Brinell, Rockwell or Vickers scales. Hardness testers are able to evaluate hardness of other metals as well: steel alloys, cast irons, nonferrous metals and its alloys.

Description
The operational principle of TPC hardness testers is based on a correlation between impact impulse data and tensile-plastic properties of a tested material. Indenter impacts on a surface of a tested material, when the measurement is carried out. Special transducer, that is a built-in part of a hardness tester, records indenter data movement, generating measurement signal. Computing unit then calculates a hardness value of a tested material using aquaired measurement signal.[br][/br]Measuring range:[br][/br]90-450 HB[br][/br]20-70 HRC[br][/br]100-950 HV[br][/br][br][/br]Accuracy:[br][/br]±10 HB in 90-150 HB range[br][/br]±15 HB in 151-450 HB range[br][/br]±1,5 HRC in 20-70 HRC range[br][/br]±15 HV in 100-950 HV range[br][/br][br][/br]The device is included in the State Register of Measuring Instruments of the Republic of Belarus.[br][/br][br][/br]Youtube device overview:[br][/br][br][/br]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_Iuft81GQE&t=3s[br][/br]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_H_2gh8CAQ[br][/br][br][/br]Developer site:http://iaph.bas-net.by/tpc-7/[br][/br]

Technology Benefits
TPC-7 has small dimensions and mass.[br][/br]Hardness tester may be used to inspect products without massive base lapping starting from 1,5 kg product mass.[br][/br]Automaticly caltulates and displays a measurement arithmetic mean on the screen.[br][/br]Converts to all common scales (HB, HRC, HV, HRB, HS, Rm).

Technology Differentiation and Uniqueness
Measuring in optional orientaton with an automatic measurement correction.[br][/br]Hardness evaluation of products with 5,5 mm thickness and more.[br][/br]Low impact energy (<10 mJ), that allows to use this hardness tester for the joint face inspection.[br][/br]TPC-7 has small dimensions and mass, and also allows to carry out measurements in optional orientation with an automatic measurement correction.[br][/br][br][/br]
