Test force application unit
The test force application unit generates a constant load for hardness testing without shaking the specimens. It ensures that force-time curves meet the standards.
Physicochemical Mechanism of Action
The test-force application unit uses mechanical or electromechanical systems to generate a precise static load. This load remains constant and is applied to the specimens without vibrations.
Metallurgical Relevance & Welding Risks
The correct test-force application unit is crucial for accurate hardness testing. An inaccurate load can lead to false results, endangering quality assurance. Vibrations can deform the metal and affect test results.
Workshop Practice & Instructions
Use the test-force application unit with the specified load-time sequences. Ensure the system is stable and free from vibrations. Regularly check the calibration of the unit to maintain the accuracy of hardness tests.
