Stainless steel robotically hardness tested
Believed to be the first that a digital Vickers hardness testing machine has been adapted for robotic operation, a system has been configured for a Spanish stainless steel plant.
This means that individual Jominy test indentations can be positioned with the same accuracy as that obtainable with a stepper motor drive system.
Indentec says the fixture is ideal for production Jominy testing where built in data processing is not required.
It will also appeal to users with occasional needs for Jominy testing.
One of these fixtures has been supplied to a Turkish standards authority as part of a multi purpose hardness testing system combining Jominy testing with conventional hardness testing to Rockwell, Vickers and Brinell scales.
