REVOLUTIONARY OPTIC SYSTEM
The QATM-developed, in-house manufactured lens system sets new standards. As well as providing crystal clear image quality for hardness testing, Koehler illumination uses white LED light and motor-operated aperture shuttering to produce ideal contrast, even for high magnification images.

Experienced metallurgists agree the image quality provided by the Qness 10 / 60 A+ is comparable in all aspects with that of established sophisticated microscopes. The up-to-date concept and new lenses in the optic system enable the device to completely meet even the strictest physical ‘test system definition’ requirements in compliance with DIN EN ISO6507-1/2:2018.

FEATURES

All devices are equipped with the new LED work space lighting: Simplified positioning of samples for single-piece tests.

There are decisive benefits in distributing vertical movement across 2 axes. Via the first Z-axis there is dynamic motion control, allowing the indenter to be positioned towards the test surface quickly and conveniently at up to 30mm/s. The additional second Z-axis in the QATM system offers a high-resolution positioning system for greater precision in force application and focusing.

Up to 8 different test diamonds or lenses can be mounted to the ultra-modern turret of the Vickers / Knoop / Brinell hardness tester. The compact structure is angled at 20° to guarantee excellent test room visibility.

The newly developed hardness testing modules serve as modular indenter holders enabling plug-and-play retrofitting of Brinell and Knoop test equipment at any time after delivery.

In addition to the Vickers, Knoop and Brinell optical methods, Rockwell measurements can now also be carried out with the new micro hardness testers. A special Rockwell test module has been developed for this purpose.

The digital caliper is compatible with the Qpix Control2 system and reads the dimensions, height and diameter of components wirelessly and at the push of a button, entering them into the software. The test head height control in the A+ hardness tester enables the test height to be reached completely automatically with no need for manual input.

If high-quality images of larger areas are required (e.g. for weld seam measurements), the area can be scanned using the HRI function. The Qpix Control 2 software automatically combines the individual images into one large overall image.

Identical samples can be set up in the software in scale as a 3D model.

All 3 axes are equipped with incremental measuring system. The axes and turret can be positioned to an accuracy of 4 μm, so the perfect solution for classic micro hardness testing. Series measurements can be repeatedly and accurately approached.

The unique construction of the highly-dynamic tool changer turret allows the positioning of test pieces at various heights within the test area. Innovative CAS technology protects the unit from collisions.

The optional large slide doubles the test table surface area to 300 x 120 mm. If required, the test height can also be extended from 150 mm to 260 mm.
