1 General Description Hardness is an important parameter of mechanical performances for metallic and alloy materials. It usually refers to the resistance capacity of a material against the indentation of the other harder material with certain shape which is pressed into its surface without residual deformation by itself. Model 210HBS-3000 Brinell Hardness Tester can be used to measure the Brinell hardness of unquenched steels, cast irons, non-ferrous metals and other softer bearing alloys in the laboratories of factories,...
steel ball diameter is a constant, can the same hardness of the same specimen with steel ball of different diameters and different test forces be obtained. For details, please refer to Table 2. Fig-2 Tungsten carbide ball indenter Table 2 Selection of carbide ball diameters and test forces in Brinell Hardness Test Test force Diameter D of tungsten carbide ball Range of applications...
5 Descriptions of Mechanism Parts This tester is of lever structure, which features compact structure and easy operation. So it is widely used in the workshops. For the structure of this tester, please refer to Fig-3. The tester is composed of loading and unloading parts, main shaft parts, lever system, worktable parts and electronic control system.

Fig-5 Schematic diagram of Box Opening 8 Cautions of Transportation Don’t try to move the tester by yourself. Or it may damage the tester and bring about personnel injury. Therefore, the tester shall be moved by two or more skilled personals. During transportation, the axial line between the indenter and the screw rod shall not be more than 15ºslanted.
5. Remove the protective sleeve around the screw rod, clean away the antirust grease on the screw rod and hand wheel with kerosene, fill some lubricants to the contacts between screw rod and hand wheel, and then resume the protective sleeve. 6.

arithmetic means shall be accepted. The difference of two diameters shall be less than 1% of the smaller one. 3) Setup of testing parameters Turn power on, the tester is automatically reset to unloading status and the LCD will display the interface as Fig-8 which is the default settings while exiting works.

which can be adjusted between 4 seconds to 99 seconds. Herein, to press ▲ or ▼ key to change the retaining time and press ENTER to confirm the selected value. (7) When the cursor comes to the item “Magnification”, press ENTER to preset the magnification ratio which can be changed over between Auto, 1X and 2X.

Fig-14 Zeroing of micrometer Note: this step is not worth repeating for every measurement point. However, it must be repeated whenever the tester is restarted. While observing the indentation through ocular lens, in case the indentation image is not clear, turn elevation hand wheel for micro-adjustment until the indentation can be seen clearly.
13 Cleaning and Lubrication Protect the tester with dust-proof cover when it will not be used for a longer period of time. Fill adequate machine oil to the contacts between lead screw and hand wheel periodically. The friction surfaces should be lubricated regularly, 2 times per month. ...
