Brinell Check is a small video instrument (it can be hold in a hand) able to measure automatically the Brinell hardness value or "calibrated shear pin" on indents from 0,5 mm to 2,5 mm or from 1,5 mm to 5 mm of diameter (made in two versions). Equipped with a stainless steel body and a magnetic base, it can stay in an erect and stable position above the indent allowing an image vision perfectly clean and ensuring careful and constant measurements.
Placing the Brinell Check on a flat or curved surface and pressing the acquisition button, the image of the indent, with the relative hardness and diameter values with thousandth of micron, are sent to the PC or to the laptop.
Through the setting of a tolerance value on the measurements to be made, the user will have the possibility to evaluate visually the accuracy of the indent, thanks to a "YES/NO" response which will appear in an unequivocal way on the monitor.
Moreover it's possible to make appearing on the screen, in an automatic succession, the values of the last five hardness measurements made.

In the software supplied with the Brinell Check, it is possible to select the type of Brinell hardness to measure (Brinell or "calibrated shear pin"), the visualization of the label with the measurement made (dimensions, colours, font) and other selectable parameters, like:

Settings on the hardness test made:

BRINELL:
1 - Diameter of the sphere (you can choose the value of the diameter of the sphere used for the
hardness test between 1, 2, 2.5, 5 and 10 mm)
2 - Load applied (from 1 to 3000 kg, or from 9,81 to 29430 Newton)
3 - Duration of the test CALIBRATED SHEAR PIN:
- Type of load applied (dynamic or static)
- Type of indenter (normal or in carbide)
- Type of material on which the test has been made (steel or cast iron)
Settings of the possible measurements:

4 - To show the label of the measurement with information about the diameter of the sphere/load
applied/duration of the test
5 - To modify the measurement tolerance
6 - To show on the screen the latest 5 measurements
7 - Calibration of the brightness
It is also possible to select and automate some operations of external input, just pressing a single button, such as:

8 - To duplicate the image on the screen
9 - To measure the indent
10 - To save the image selected in the format, with the options and with the name wished
11 - To export in an Excel table the measurements made
12 - To close the image after the measurement after a fixed waiting time
13 - To warn if the space on the disk is not enough to save the image
MIN-MAX method to measure indents on surfaces with imperfections
Since often in the empiric working, for matters of time (but also of costs), materials not enough smooth and not standardized are used, some problems in the measurements.
For this reason we suggest this method (probably it will be the most used..!)
This method allows to have very reliable measurements, but you must wait for a few seconds more to visualize the indent with relate diameter and Hardness Brinell value.
Settings saving in profiles
If measurements are made on different types of material, you need to save all parameters to use them in the future on the same type of material.
The Brinell profiles are designed specifically for this purpose, because when you find the ideal parameters to make your measurements, you can save and recall them whenever you need. TECHNICAL DATA

OPTICAL DEVICES FOR THE BRINELL MEASURING
STAND MICRO

The Stand Micro is a pocket microscope 20X/40X very strong, completely in aluminium, practical and manageable.
It can be used as tool of universal measure for the control of surfaces, to measure the diameter of small holes, meshes of textiles, etc., but thanks to its particular technical characteristics it has been immediately appreciated as ideal optical instruments of Brinell indentations.
Its led annular lighting (6000°K) incorporated high luminous intensity allows easy measurements of cracks in the materials on plain and curved surfaces (this last if provided of special base).
The precise focusing by means of knurled metal ring coaxial with optical axe allows the control and measuring in movements on “Z” axe up to 7 mm through a nonius with decimal divisions.
The ocular is provided of a measuring reticle of 6mm with divisions of 0,05mm and it is possible to regulate it in the focusing suiting it for your sight.
The alignment of the division notches with the object to be measured comes rotating the block of the ocular avoiding in this way the moving of the tool or the object under examination.
The great practicality in the use of this device is due in particular way to the possibility of transversal micrometrical movement of the optical head on the object to be measured through a screw cursor.
The maximum excursion of the cursor is 8mm and is controllable on its nonius with centesimal divisions; with this system is possible an express and precise alignment of a scale division of the ocular with a point of the object to measure.
