Description

The universal hardness tester ADL-DU 110 is designed for controlling the hardness of metal products.

The hardness tester ADL-DU 110 combines two methods of hardness measurement: ultrasonic and dynamic. This makes this device the most versatile and effective solution for incoming, in-process, and outgoing quality control of materials.

The universal hardness tester is used for various tasks, including the measurement of carbon and structural steels, surface-hardened products, heat-resistant, corrosion-resistant, stainless steels, galvanized coatings, welds, aluminum and copper alloys, products of complex configuration, thin-walled, and compact products.

The ADL-DU 110 provides an accessible and reliable solution for addressing challenges in situations where discrepancies exist between departments or subcontractors regarding the obtained results of hardness measurements during the acceptance of components (materials). This is achieved by allowing measurements with an accuracy closely approaching that of stationary hardness testers.

In addition to laboratory use, the hardness tester can be employed in manufacturing workshops and open-air field conditions. The device is equipped with a protective casing featuring rubber inserts and a dust-resistant cover. It is also furnished with a vibrant colored 3.5″ LCD TFT display and a user-friendly menu interface.

DYNAMIC SENSOR

The sensor is designed for measuring the hardness of large and massive objects.

To ensure optimal measurement conditions on various objects, additional dynamic sensors with different sizes and spring stiffness, providing varying impact energy of the indenter, can be utilized.

ULTRASONIC SENSOR

The ultrasonic sensor is effective in tackling tasks involving hardness measurement in grooves, surfaces with a small radius, hard-to-reach areas, complex-shaped products, and small details.

It is well-suited for measuring the hardness of mirror surfaces on shaft necks, blades, gear teeth, as it has a small indenter footprint. Especially when using the UCI-S type sensor.

FEATURES OF THE HARDNESS TESTER ADL-DU110:

  • Dust and moisture-resistant casing.
  • Intuitive interface organized on the principle of ‘TURN ON AND WORK.’
  • Color display with backlighting clearly presents measurement results in bright sunlight and low light conditions.
  • Notification of measurement result output within established limits.
  • Unique system for statistical data processing designed for prompt analysis of measurement results.
  • Single-point calibration function.
  • Large memory capacity – enables input and storage of over 100 user scales and viewing the history of all conducted measurements after completing the operation.
  • Self-programming of additional scales.
  • Saving all measurement results by date and time. Viewing results in the form of tables and graphs for detailed analysis of obtained values.
  • Stable operation of the device in challenging climatic conditions.

ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT:

The device can be equipped with special attachments for positioning, allowing hardness measurement on radiused surfaces.

To improve convergence of results and reduce errors, it is possible to supply a tripod for working with the ultrasonic contact impedance sensor of UCI type.

In addition to standard sensors, it is possible to supply additional dynamic («E», «G» type) and ultrasonic (UCI-S, UCI-R, UCI-L, UCI-P) sensors for various tasks.

The company can supply hardness testing blocks according to the Libu, Rockwell, Brinell, and Vickers scales, as well as certified standard hardness blocks of the enterprise. To prepare the surface, the device can be equipped with a grinding machine and a set of consumables.
