Automatic Measurement System of JMHVS-5/10/30/50-XYZ Vickers Hardness Tester

Product introduction

The automatic Vickers hardness image measurement system integrates optical imaging, mechanical displacement, electronic control, digital imaging, image analysis, computer processing and other latest professional technologies. The micro Vickers hardness tester and the automatic carrier stage are controlled by the computer mainframe, and the hardness indentation is digitally imaged on the computer screen. Then, the hardness indentation is digitally imaged on the computer screen through automatic reading, manual reading and so on. By means of this method, the micro-Vickers hardness, hardening depth, film thickness and distance between two points of metal and some non-metallic materials and various coatings and coatings are accurately measured. It can also photograph the metal surface topography and print the fixed rate. This system breaks through the traditional hardness testing method and achieves full automatic, high precision and high repeatability hardness testing. It is an important equipment for material analysis.

Function of Automatic Measurement System

  1. XYZ Sample movement control: The system supports XY electric mobile sample table and Z axis control, including manual control, electric control (rocker control) and automatic control (software control). X-Y direction can move synchronously. Electric control uses three-dimensional rocker control, ergonomic principle, simple and convenient, arbitrary.
  1. Software Manipulation and Loading Mode
  • Location Mobile Loading: The object is moved directly to the software setting position and loaded;
  • Fixed-point Mobile Loading: Select any point on the specimen, move below the indenter and load it;
  • Directional Moving Loading: Mouse Click to control the platform to move arbitrarily in eight directions. Moving step can be set and loaded;
  • Loading at any position: The mouse drags the loading table to move in any direction, so that users can browse the surface of the sample easily, and the loading point can be set at any position;
  • Variable speed mobile: When the platform moves, there are five speeds to choose from;
  • Other functions: Various professional functions, such as arbitrary location of origin, automatic reset, mechanical limit and so on, can meet various needs.
  1. Fully automatic operation: The system can automatically move multi-points, turn towers, load, focus and measure according to the set path, and draw hardening curve automatically;
  1. Conversion, correction and validation of hardness values: The system can convert the measured Vickers hardness values into other hardness values such as HB, HR, etc. It can validate the measured values of samples effectively.

2. The moving speed of XYZ is adjustable.
3. You can click the mouse to control the movement, or move up or down by inputting the distance of the movement.
4. The rocker can be used to control the movement of XY and Z, and the position can be feedback in time.
Loading mode and path settingA variety of ways to ensure that users can still obtain satisfactory measurement results when the sample is not placed vertically or horizontally.
Two-point method: the moving direction of the object can be specified by clicking two points on the sample image at will. Normal mode: Normal line tangential to the edge of the specimen is selected as the moving direction of the object platform.
Angular bisector: The direction of the bisector is used as the moving direction of the sample through the selection of the angle.
Arbitrary point mode: the mobile platform is placed at any position, loading point is added, and then loading and measuring once.
Loading at any point: Double-click at any position of the platform, the platform automatically moves the point to the center of the pressure head field of view, loading and measuring.
Path adjustment: For the selected path, horizontal mirror, vertical mirror, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, arbitrary angle rotation, position translation and other operations can be carried out.
Fully automatic measurementThe hardness value is calculated by point-by-point automatic loading, auto-focusing and auto-indentation measurement according to the set loading path, and the hardening curve is drawn.

2. Camera can be calibrated by hardness calibration block or calibration ruler
3. In order to improve the accuracy of measurement, different test forces can be calibrated separately and the system can be loaded automatically.
Hardness Value Conversion and CorrectionHardness conversion: Vickers hardness values measured can be converted to other hardness values such as HB, HR, etc.
Data statisticsAutomatically calculating the mean and variance of hardness
Measurement algorithm1. Leading automatic reading technology – leading automatic reading technology, not only can obtain sub-pixel, high precision and high repeatability results, but also can be applied to general indentation images, even including a small amount of rust, scratches, uneven light, shallow corrosion images, measurement speed is very fast;
2. Unique manual point extraction and automatic point finding technology – users can pick up approximate points near the four indentation vertices, the system automatically distinguishes the best vertex position and reads directly, which meets the common user’s habits and greatly reduces the user’s labor intensity;
3. General manual measurement methods, including 4-vertex measurement, 2-diagonal measurement, etc. When measuring 4 vertices, 4 vertices can be selected according to any order, which is convenient for users.
Hardening curveAutomatic drawing of hardening curve:
Data storageThe original measurement data and images can be saved in a document for subsequent calls and reports; a file holds all the data of a measurement.
Test reportAutomatically generate WORD or EXCEL document reports; report formats can be customized; standard formats include hardness values, statistics, indentation images, and hardening curves for each single measurement point.
Knoop hardnessIt can be set to Knoop hardness measurement.
