DuraVision G5 (automatic)
DuraVision G5
0.3–3,000 kgfFULLY AUTOMATED HARDNESS TESTING
DuraVision 250 G5 and 350 G5
The fully automated DuraVision G5 hardness testers cover a peerlessly broad standard load range of 0.3–250 kgf and 3–3000 kgf. The electronically controlled test cycle provides for a large selection of test methods. The Brinell, Vickers, and Rockwell test methods can be measured in compliance with EN ISO and ASTM standards, and carbon testing is also possible. Knoop and plastic tests can also be conducted with the lower standard load range models. Thanks to its sturdy construction, the DuraVision G5 Automatic is particularly suitable fur use not only in the vicinity of the production environment, but also in the laboratory for quality assurance purposes.

IMPORTANT FUNCTIONS OF THE FULLY AUTOMATIC DURAVISION G5 AT A GLANCE
Product features and options
Reliably to the correct test result
Evaluation of the test indents is performedin the DuraVision G5 series with fully automatic brightness control andfast autofocus. The test load is applied using the proven concept ofclosed-loop control – the force is thereby continuously and precisely monitoredby electronic force measuring sensors. Motorised cross slides position the testpoints with a high degree of repeatability and positioning accuracy, withoutany operator influence.
A broad spectrum of applications
The DuraVision G5 Series offers a uniquely broad standard load range from 0.3 kgf to 3000 kgf. The force is continuously and precisely applied by means of a large number of electronic force measuring sensors. Intelligent utilization of the 12-megapixel camera enables a 4x zoom, enabling the entire application range to be covered with just a few lenses. The combination with 7 turret positions also saves tool changing. Automatic evaluation of the test indents by fully automated brightness control and fast autofocus in combination with the star turret shortens the cycle times as far as technically possible and minimises the operator influence.
Time savings thanks to fast test cycles
TheDuraVision G5 Automatic helps to save time, both in serial testing and in thecase of alternating test requirements. Thanks to the new, patented rapidtraverse, the height of the nose cone can be adjusted at up to 25 mm/s.Combined with intuitive operation and use of the template function, thisenables quick configuration. The high degree of automation of theDuraVision G5 Automatic reduces the active operating time involved inserial testing many times over. The xChange interface included as standardallows the automatic import and export of test parameters and test results andspeeds up the test cycle.
CE housing
Maximum protection with highest levels ofuser-friendliness – together with the CE protective housing, the DuraVision G5meets international CE requirements. The light barrier system means that nosafety door needs to be opened in future in order to access the machine’stesting area. User-friendliness is therefore increased without compromisingsafety. In countries where the CE label applies, the machine may only bysupplied with the protective housing. For the purposes of automation, theDuraVision G5 is also available outside these countries without aprotective housing, in which case the machine is supplied without a CE label.
Lens with Brinell SmartLight
The Brinell hardness test has always represented a challenge with soft metals and difficult surfaces. Particularly with soft materials, the edges are not always perfectly recognisable due to considerable deformation (bulging) around the indentation. The new lenses with the innovative Brinell SmartLight now ensure ideal lighting and allow better recognisability of the test indentation during Brinell tests. The lenses with Brinell SmartLight are available as 2.5x and 5x lenses.
Star-shaped turret – seven at a stroke
The star turret included in the normal scope of every machine can be expanded from the standard two positions to up to seven positions — at any time and with little effort. The star-shaped design allows not only a slim construction of the turret, but also provides seven positions for fitting any combination of indenters and lenses. A wide spectrum of test methods can thus be covered with a single machine, and frequent tool changing is not necessary. In combination with the new high-resolution camera, this reduces investment costs and set-up time. In addition, the turret rotates at a very high speed and automatically finds the shortest turning direction to the selected position.
Intuitive software with calibration assistant
ecos Workflow with Calibration Information System (CIS) provides an efficient, intelligent solution for all conventional hardness testing tasks. The user is guided step-by-step through the measuring process all the way to data backup. The intuitive user interface shortens the familiarisation time and reduces operating errors. A special feature of ecos Workflow CIS is the integrated calibration assistant that monitors all calibrated methods and greatly simplifies the inspection of the hardness tester required by standards. The assistant indicates when periodic and indirect inspections to ISO and ASTM standards are due and guides the user through the verification process.
Serial testing on identical or different parts
The DuraVision G5 demonstrates its full strength when it comes to testing multiple specimens with the same test requirements. Even simultaneous serial testing of multiple specimens with different component heights presents no problem at all for the DuraVision G5, whether with or without clamping jaws.
Everything at a glance
The high resolution (12 MP) of the colour camera and its integrated zoom function allow you to preposition your test specimens faster and much more accurately. In addition, the test points and sequences can already be placed in the overview image. It also significantly improves the recognition of areas on etched workpieces (e.g. welding samples). When working in live-image mode and for the creation of high resolution overview images, a second screen allows simultaneous viewing of both pictures.
