Product Description
Mitutoyo HR-500 Rockwell Hardness Tester, 810-202-02A
Code: 810-202-02A
The Mitutoyo HR-500 series is a line of advanced Rockwell hardness testing machines. These testers use electronic control to provide highly accurate and consistent test force generation for evaluating the mechanical properties of various materials, such as metals, plastics, and ceramics. The HR-500 series is capable of performing Rockwell, Rockwell Superficial, and Brinell hardness tests.
- The HR-500 series provides versatility for testing a wide range of materials.
- Multiple test types: The machine can perform three types of hardness tests: Rockwell, Rockwell Superficial, and Brinell (with optional accessories).
- Scale conversion: It can convert hardness values to multiple scales, including HV, HK, HR (all Rockwell types), HS, HB, and tensile strength.
Operation and data management
The HR-500's user interface simplifies the testing process and enhances data collection.
- Touch-screen display: The machine is operated via a touch-panel LCD that shows real-time test conditions, results, and statistical data.
- Data output: Data can be sent to other devices via RS-232C, Digimatic, and Centronics interfaces.
- Statistical analysis: The HR-500 can perform statistical processing of results and provides visual tools like X̄-R control charts and histograms.
- Language support: A choice of several languages is available for the user interface, including English, Japanese, German, and others.
Specimen capacity
The HR-500 series provides ample space for testing a variety of specimen sizes.
- Maximum height: A standard HR-500 model can accommodate specimens up to 8.1 inches (205 mm) in height, while a "long" type can handle specimens up to 15.5 inches (395 mm).
- Maximum depth: The maximum specimen depth is 5.9 inches (150 mm).
- Maximum load: The maximum permissible table loading is 45 pounds (20 kg).
