Automation of the Rockwell Standard Measuring Machine of the PTB

• Abstract:

  This paper describes an improved method to perform Rockwell hardness measurements according to the standard ISO 6508:2015 Part 3 in a more efficient way. Therein we use data evaluated in the preload phase to complete a running measurement cycle without any additional indentations. This makes Rockwell hardness measurements much more efficiently.
