Low Load Brinell Hardness Tester

HH-62.5 A/B

Low load Brinell hardness tester is a specialized instrument used to measure the Brinell hardness of materials using a relatively low test load. This type of hardness tester is designed to apply a smaller load compared to traditional Brinell testers, allowing for the measurement of softer materials or thin samples that may be sensitive to high loads. Equipped with sophisticated sensors, both test force and test results are more accurate, have more wide range of test force for your choice. The main components adopt brand such as American 3M, Allegro, Japan Omron and NKK, to ensure the equipment running stably for a long time.

Key Features

Low Test Load: A low load Brinell hardness tester applies a smaller test load compared to conventional Brinell testers. The exact load value may vary depending on the specific instrument, but it is typically lower than 500 kgf (kilogram-force).
Indentation Measurement: Similar to traditional Brinell testers, the low load Brinell tester uses a spherical indenter to create an indentation on the surface of the material being tested. The applied load is maintained for a specified dwell time, allowing for the formation of a measurable indentation.
Reduced Indentation Size: The smaller test load results in a reduced indentation size compared to regular Brinell testing. This is particularly useful for softer materials or thin samples that may be prone to excessive deformation or damage when subjected to higher loads.
Measurement Accuracy: Low load Brinell hardness testers are designed to provide accurate hardness measurements, despite the reduced test load. The indentation size is typically measured using an optical system, such as an optical microscope or an automated image analysis system.
Material Compatibility: Low load Brinell hardness testers are suitable for measuring the hardness of a wide range of materials, including metals, alloys, plastics, and other non-metallic materials. They are especially useful for materials with lower hardness values or delicate structures.
Application Areas: Low load Brinell hardness testers find applications in various industries, such as aerospace, automotive, materials research, and quality control. They are commonly used for evaluating the hardness of materials that require lower test loads or materials where conventional Brinell testing may cause excessive deformation.

Microindentation Brinell hardness tester is a specialized instrument used to measure the Brinell hardness of materials using a microindentation technique. This type of hardness tester applies a small test load and measures the resulting indentation size to determine the material’s hardness.
