FEATURES










Via stable, ultra-precise roller-bearing spindle guide. Solid, no-maintenance structure with a sophisticated black chrome-plated handwheel. All Brinell / Knoop / Rockwell / Vickers hardness tester models of the EVO series are available with a Ø25 mm table mount (optional ¾” adapter available).
No long tool changeovers for inaccessible test positions. The downholder can be swivelled in and out via manual or motorized action, as required. Furthermore, the clamping elements can be changed easily and adapted to suit the customer‘s component.
The wide range of available test anvils and prisms enable hardness testing to be conducted on unusually large or spherical items, and on test objects with an uneven test surface.
All 250/750/3000 hardness testers of the EVO series are equipped as standard with clamping for 2 tools – simple and affordable with room for a test head and a lens or XLED – ideal for unchanging testing requirements
High-quality CMOS 5-megapixel cameras with Ethernet data transfer define the current industrial standard. Unlike other camera systems, a far higher transmission stability is possible here. Additionally, the PC and hardness testing device can be set up remotely at great distances from each other. This is ideal in manufacturing environments in which the control infrastructure is installed in external switch cabinets.

The optics system has been completely redeveloped. It was built on site in the cleanroom at the QATM plant and benefits from the company’s comprehensive expertise. All the new devices share one universal microscope system covering all the necessary visual ranges between 0.1 mm and 8 mm in maximum clarity and contrast. The QATM system guarantees uniform illumination across the entire image, regardless of the degree of magnification, and without dark edges.
XLED illumination modules revolutionize the analysis of Brinell indentations. Due to beading on commercially available lenses, soft Brinell indentations in particular can be subject to imprecise gauging results. In contrast, XLED lenses guarantee precise and repeatable measurements, regardless of material type and hardness, due to direct and wide-extension illumination.
Uniquely simple, tool-free indenter changes due to indenter quick-release mechanism.
The 12” ultra-flat, capacitive touch display can be raised, lowered and tilted smoothly via ball-and-socket joints for ergonomically optimized use.
A range of clamping and holding elements can be configured to suit tooling requirements. The optional transparent collision guard can protect tools on the device from damage while ensuring an unrestricted view of the test cell interior.
