QATM Hardness Test Blocks

QATM Hardness Test Blocks

Calibrated and certified hardness test blocks are an important part of the hardness testing. QPREP hardness test blocks fulfill the requirements for testing according to following standards:

  • Rockwell
    EN ISO 6508-3 & ASTM E18
  • Brinell
    EN ISO 6506-3 & ASTM E10
  • Vickers
    EN ISO 6507-3 & ASTM E92
  • Knoop
    EN ISO 4545-3 & ASTM E92

These are essential for indirect calibration and periodic verification, as well as the results documentation.

  • Calibration according to current ISO and ASTM standards
  • Standard sample holder for automated periodic testing
  • QpixControl2 – Calibration manager
  • Option: Grid for hardness test block (QH00014010 )
  • Option: Additional calibration of a hardness test block (QH0002401A )

The QATM Calibration Manager inside QpixControl2 Software supports in the periodic standard-compliance testing on hardness tester. Measurement accuracy is visualized to show the consistency of the measuring accuracy of the test method with the current standard. By using original QATM QPREP hardness test blocks in combination with the standard sample holder for test blocks, verification process runs fully automatically. A comprehensive range of statistical functions has also been built in. All results from the tests are clearly and logically documented and can be presented whenever there is an audit.
