As a specialized hardness testing equipment for large workpieces in the industrial testing field , the Gate-type Rockwell hardness tester plays a key role in quality control of large metal products such as steel cylinders. Its core advantage is its ability to accurately meet the measurement needs of large workpieces, especially for special workpieces like steel cylinders, which have curved surfaces, large volumes and heavy weights. It breaks through the limitations of traditional hardness testers on workpiece size and weight.
In terms of structural design, Gate-type Rockwell hardness testers usually adopt a stable Gate-type frame structure, which has sufficient bearing capacity and rigidity, and can easily accommodate steel cylinder workpieces of large diameters and long lengths. The workpiece does not need complex handling or fixed adjustment when test, and can be directly placed on the test platform. The adjustable measuring mechanism of the equipment adapts to the curved surface radian of the steel cylinder, ensuring that the indenter is vertically attached to the surface of the workpiece, and avoiding test errors caused by the irregular shape of the workpiece.
The "on - line test" function is its core highlight. In the production line of workpieces such as steel cylinders, the Gate-type Rockwell hardness tester can be integrated into the automated production process. Through the linkage control with the production line, real - time hardness test of workpieces during processing is realized. For example, after key processes such as steel cylinder rolling and heat treatment, the equipment can quickly complete the hardness test without transferring the workpiece to the off - line test area. This not only reduces the loss and time cost in the process of workpiece handling, but also can timely feedback whether the product hardness meets the standards, facilitating the production line to adjust process parameters in real time and ensuring the stability of product quality in source.
In addition, the Gate-type Rockwell hardness tester is equipped with a high - precision sensor and an intelligent data processing system, which can display the hardness value immediately after test, and support data storage, traceability and analysis, meeting the needs of recording and managing quality data in industrial production. Whether it is used for the factory inspection of high - pressure containers such as natural gas cylinders and pressure vessel cylinders, or the performance sampling inspection of large structural steel parts, it can provide reliable guarantee for the hardness quality control of large workpieces with its efficient, accurate and convenient characteristics. This Gate-type Rockwell hardness tester uses Rockwell scales ( loads of 60, 100 and 150kgf respectively) and superificial Rockwell scales (with loads of 15, 30 and 45kgf respectively) for testing. At the same time, it can be optionally equipped with Brinell load HBW. It adopts cell load control structure, and a high - precision force sensor ensures accurate and stable test results. Operate by touch screen of built - in industrial computer, and has data processing and data export functions.
This Gate-type Rockwell hardness tester can complete the testing process fully automatically with one key. This machine realizes a true "fully automatic" testing process. The operator only needs to place the workpiece on the stage, select the required test scale and click the start button. From loading to getting the hardness value, no human intervention during the process. After the test is completed, the measuring head will automatically return to the initial position, which is convenient for the operator to replace the workpiece.
Today we received a call from a customer who needs to test the hardness of cast iron. However, use frequency is not high, and the requirement for hardness is not high. This Rockwell hardness tester can also be used to test HRB and then convert it to Brinell hardness value HBW.
