QNESS 150 CSA+
What your process engineer actually checks
Locked, traceable lot chemistry
Every lot ships with a COA documenting PSD, sphericity, flow rate, apparent density, and full chemistry — and a lot number you can trace. Aerospace and medical teams reorder 4+ times without re-qualifying.
Qualified parameters, not just powder
Validated parameter sets for EOS M 290, Renishaw 500Q, SLM 280, and our own AO Metal LPBF ship with the order. Load the profile and hit density on the first build — no parameter-development burn.
A materials engineer on the line
Questions on ferrite content, flowability, recyclate ratios, or HIP response? A materials engineer answers directly — not a contact-form bot. Most replies in under 4 hours, NDA standard.

FEATURES










• Controlled force application (1kg to 250kg)
• Machine versions to serve all applications and test piece size
• Direct depth-gauge-system (0.05μm resolution)
• Robust welded steel frame and sheet steel covers
No need for long retooling breaks due to inaccessible test points. The clamping head can be removed via 2 screws. Now, even test points in hard-to-reach contours can be accessed with ease.
The height of the test table is infinitely adjustable (position can be fixed) via the play-free roller-bearing spindle guide – ideal for fully automatic series and progression tests on parts with identical test height. The test sequence is performed without clamping. Individual tests can also be carried out with the patented, swivelling downholder clamp.
The automatic XY slide with high-precision positioning drive enables extensive test series and hardness curves. External joystick for controlling the axis. Usable support surface: 180 x 200 mm, Traverse path: X 220 / Y 220 mm.
Fully automatic and robust XY slide with high-precision positioning drive. Dynamic joystick to control all 3 axes (XYZ). Usable support surface 200 x 180 mm.

An entire range of relevant data, such as test patterns, test methods and user fields can be activated via pre-defined sample magazines. QATM can provide the most suitable clamping setup, matrices and cassette systems for every requirement.
Ultimate ease of use with 5 megapixel colour camera for recording the entire sample for a perfect overview and documentation in the protocol. It is standard in the CSA+ versions to record the entire table surface as sample image.
High-performance induction motor facilitates an ideal workpiece clamping force. Clamping power is adapted to the test method and is automatically set to be greater than the test force. Operators do not need to set levels and can rely on the device to guarantee safe, optimized adaption.
QATM is the right stop for advice on complex requirements and clamping devices! It would be our pleasure to advise, devise, customize and implement a solution for you. Only the right component clamping solution can guarantee reliable results.
QATM configures the Rockwell hardness tester Qness 150 CS and CSA+ with a direct, ultra-precise HEIDENHAIN depth-gauging system, positioned exactly on the axis of the indenter. This omits measurement inaccuracies caused by deformation in the system. Another unbeatable benefit: Indenting depth can be gauged directly – and can be easily calibrated in accordance with the latest Rockwell norms.

Full documentation — TDS, SDS, batch COA, and parameter sets for the major LPBF platforms. Everything you need for qualification under AS9100 / ISO 13485 workflows.
We atomize our own. Custom variants on request.
Tighter PSD, modified chemistry, custom blend? Our ATO atomization lab runs custom batches in 3–4 weeks. Biocompatible, refractory, proprietary — all in-house, verified before ship.
Complete the workflow
What teams add to an order so the first build runs clean — handling, plates, and a sample to qualify before you commit volume.
From process engineers running QNESS 150 CSA+
Unedited feedback from customers who reorder QNESS 150 CSA+.
Same lot 4 times in a row. We stopped re-running parameter sweeps after the second order — density was identical to the first build.
Asked about ferrite content on a Friday. A materials engineer answered Monday morning with actual data, not a sales pitch. That's why we keep ordering.
COA matches the bottle. PSD and flow are exactly what was on the sheet — we run it on a Renishaw 500Q and it hits density on the first try.
