MICRO HARDNESS TESTER QNESS 60 A/A+ EVO
HARDNESS TESTER
UNLIMITED OPTIONS
| VERTICAL CONCEPT WITH 2 Z-AXES There are decisive benefits in distributing vertical movement across 2 axes. Via the first Z-axis there is dynamic motion control, allowing the indenter to be positioned towards the test surface quickly and conveniently at up to 30mm/s. The additional second Z-axis in the QATM system offers a high-resolution positioning system for greater precision in force application and focusing. | 8-POSITION TOOL CHANGER Up to 8 different test diamonds or lenses can be mounted to the ultra-modern test turret. The compact structure is angled at 20° to guarantee excellent test room visibility. |

MICRO HARDNESS TESTER QNESS 60 A/A+ EVO
HARDNESS TESTER OR MICROSCOPE? BOTH
REVOLUTIONARY OPTIC SYSTEM The QATM-developed, in-house manufactured lens system sets new standards. As well as providing crystal clear image quality for hardness testing, Koehler illumination uses white LED light and motor-operated aperture shuttering to produce ideal contrast, even for high magnification images. The color-corrected high-quality lens series is used for structural analysis. There are also two camera systems to choose from. Experienced metallurgists agree the image quality provided by the Qness 60 EVO is comparable in all aspects with that of established sophisticated microscopes. The up-to-date concept and new lenses in the optic system enable the device to completely meet even the strictest physical ‘test system definition’ requirements in compliance with DIN EN ISO6507-1/2:2018. | AUTOMATED HARDNESS TESTING AND MICROSCOPY It is now possible to execute all required quality assurance tasks with a previously unattained degree of convenience and time efficiency. The QATM Qness 60A and A+ EVO devices can work through hundreds – even thousands – of test and analytical points in a fully automated, unmanned setting. The analytical functions have also been integrated in order to enable the operator working in a manual mode to analyze sample properties with maximum efficiency, and to deliver the requested results smoothly and simply. | INTERACTIVE TEST SOFTWARE FOR ALL VERSIONS Qpix Control2 is pioneering the ultra-modern software operation of hardness testing equipment and has been expanded to include intelligent measurement tools for lengths and angles. It’s ideal for establishing templates, and now also for the testing of welds (A/A+ models). In addition, the optional INSPECT software modules can be seamlessly integrated into the overall operating infrastructure:

PIONEERING TECHNOLOGY - UNIQUE IMPLEMENTATION
EXACT POSITIONING AND A LARGE TEST SPACE All 3 axes are equipped with the direct, optical path measuring system as standard. The axes and turret can be positioned to an accuracy of 1.5 μm, so even thin layers, or special testing or analytical coordinates, can be repeatedly and accurately approached. | DIFFERENT TEST HEIGHTS The unique construction of the highly-dynamic tool changer turret allows the positioning of test pieces at various heights within the test area. Innovative CAS technology protects the unit from collisions. | OPTIMIZED PERFORMANCE AND SILENCED DESIGN Optimized testing parameters and shorter intervals for serial autofocus, brightness regulation and image analysis, facilitate unbeatable cycle times during everyday operation involving hardness testing devices of the new EVO product line; and it’s even faster than the previous model. A further benefit of the new machine concept is the emphasis on reduced noise emissions in operation and motion, making it particularly suitable for laboratory work. | ||
IPC TECHNOLOGY / RATATABLE INDENTER IPC – ‘Indenter Parallel to Contour’ (optional) | EMBEDDED SAMPLES The secure clamping of samples thanks to a redesigned sample holder with a built-in clamping force limiter, simplifies sample centering and positioning. A sample plate with a ball-joint even clamps samples that cannot be held flat to prevent them tilting or sliding during testing. Available with 1, 4 or 8 sample-holding positions and adapter rings for a large range of metric and imperial sample diameters. | SAMPLE IMAGE CAMERA It’s no coincidence that most QATM customers choose the ‘A+’ version with a built-in sample image camera. In a few seconds the image of the sample is shot with the additional camera (field of view 49 x 37 mm). The image provides excellent navigational support within the software, particularly in combination with DOUBLE-VIEW TECHNOLOGY, and aids enhanced documentation in the automatically compiled test report. ‘A’-version devices can also be upgraded to ‘A+’ versions by equipping them with the second camera system at a later date. |

APPLICATIONS - PRACTICAL
TOOTH FLANK TESTING The time-consuming creation of test points, especially with tooth flank testing, is minimized by means of pre-defined test templates. The Qness 60 A+ enables the entire normed procedure between HV30 and HV1 to be done by one single device. | TEMPLATE FUNCTION
| WELD SAMPLE TESTING AND ANALYSIS Serial provision of ‘Advanced Welding’ functions facilitates the simple, norm-compliant (e.g. EN ISO 9015 & EN ISO 22826) integration of test mapping for hardness testing. Pre-defined patterns can be simply adapted to each respective test piece via interactive functions. If required, Qpix INSPECT modules can also provide a simultaneous material-graphics analysis of the weld seam. |
OPERATION VIA EXTERNAL PC-SYSTEM
REVOLUTIONARY 3D OPERATING CONCEPT
Intuitive, clearly organized and professional: Qpix Control2 next-generation hardness testing software, developed based on customer feedback and input for maximum user-friendliness. The controlled test head benefits from automatic height adjustment and contactless exploration, complete integration of the Qness sample holder, CAD compatibility with 3D imaging and a whole range of easily understood 3D control elements and views included in the software. It sets new standards in hardness testing.
CUSTOMER-SPECIFIC SAMPLE HOLDER Identical samples can be set up in the software in scale as a 3D model | CAS TECHNOLOGY Innovative Collision Avoiding System (CAS) technology protects the mechanical parts in the device using predictive 3D motion calculations to visualize the effects of collisions and operation errors. |
LOAD SAMPLE, LOAD ROW, START
3 STEPS TO THE RESULT
1. LOAD SAMPLE The machine moves automatically to sample holder height. Image of sample is taken automatically. | 2. LOAD ROW AutoSnap - Speedy Row Set-up: Drag the row of test points to the desired position. The serial Auto-Snap function corrects the starting point of the test row automatically. | 3.
