Description
MACRO HARDNESS TESTER
VERSION CS/C EVO
The characteristic “C” shaped machine frame gives the CS and C versions of the Qness 250/750/3000 EVO series their name.
The proven concept with fixed test head and up/down moving spindle has been standard in hardness testing for many decades and is ideally suited for small test pieces – as model “C” for component heights up to a maximum of 395 mm and as an even more compact model “CS” with 175 mm maximum test height.
QATM redefines universal hardness testing with the EVO models: extremely short cycle times and maximum precision were the main focus of product development.
8-POSITION TOOL CHANGER
FASTER TEST METHOD CHANGE-OVER
The easy way to serve universal applications: The sophisticated tool-changer concept with a rotational axis angle of 15° provides space for 8 tools in a uniquely compact unit. Downholder elements with a closed shape on three sides guarantee secure workpiece clamping around the test point – even for small test pieces.

UNIQUE INSTRUMENT FEATURES
FAST, QUIET AND UNIVERSALLY APPLICABLE
UNIQUE INSTRUMENT FEATURES
TEST TABLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
via stable, ultra-precise roller-bearing spindle guide. Solid, no-maintenance structure with a sophisticated black chrome-plated handwheel. All devices are available with a Ø25 mm table mount (optional ¾” adapter available).
SWIVELING DOWNHOLDER
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.
WIDE RANGE OF TEST TABLES AND PRISM ANVILS
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.
2-POSITION TOOL HOLDER
All Qness 250/750/3000 EVO devices 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
RAPID INDENTER CHANGING SYSTEM
Uniquely simple, tool-free indenter changes due to indenter quick-release mechanism.
HIGHLY ACCURATE RESULTS IN ULTRA-SHORT TIME
MACRO HARDNESS TESTER CS/C EVO
HIGHLY ACCURATE RESULTS IN ULTRA-SHORT TIME
EXCELLENT IMAGE QUALITY
The optics system of the new EVO series 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.
REDUCED CYCLE TIMES
The new EVO product line guarantees optimized test parameters, a faster Windows10 PC, much shorter serial autofocus times, significantly faster regulation of brightness and image evaluation, all of which contributes to far more rapid cycle completion times in everyday hardness testing – with even quieter operating noises.
XLED BRINELL EVALUATION LENSES
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.
UNLIMITED SUITABILITY FOR INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS
MACRO HARDNESS TESTER CS/C EVO
UNLIMITED SUITABILITY FOR INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS
ETHERNET INDUSTRIAL CAMERAS
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.
FREELY ADJUSTABLE OPERATING DISPLAY
The 12” ultra-flat, capacitive touch display can be raised, lowered and tilted smoothly via ball-and-socket joints for ergonomically optimized use.
OPTIMIZED TEST HEAD DESIGN
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.
