Metal Shell Hardness Tester

The metal shell hardness tester forms an indentation by pressing the indenter into the metal surface under constant pressure, and then measures the size or depth of the indentation to calculate the hardness value. It is used for hardness testing of metal materials and is applied in industries such as mechanical manufacturing, automotive components, and tool and mold making to evaluate the material's resistance to deformation.
Selection
When selecting, consider the type of metal to be tested and its hardness range to determine the appropriate scale, such as Rockwell HRC or Brinell HB. Choose between benchtop or portable models based on the shape and dimensions of the sample; for thin parts, use a superficial Rockwell tester. Verify that the indenter type and test force comply with standards, and check the accuracy of the indentation measurement system. Be mindful of the impact of environmental vibrations, and regularly calibrate the instrument using standard blocks.
