Microhardness Traverse Testing System MT91

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Newage MT91 System is an advanced microhardness testing system utilizing the Rockwell method for precise hardness measurement. It offers unmatched accuracy and speed, completing test cycles in as little as six seconds without requiring operator interpretation of impressions.
Key Features:
  • Accuracy and Speed: Utilizes Rockwell-type testing for precise results, with test cycles as fast as six seconds.
  • Ease of Use: No need for operator interpretation, reducing inaccuracies. Custom fixturing allows for larger sample measurements, minimizing preparation time.
  • Surface Preparation: Requires only a 400 grit polish, less than traditional systems.
  • Traverse Setup: Capable of up to 24 traverses in a single procedure, with easy setup and numerous report formats for internal and customer use.
System Components: The MT91 System includes a microhardness tester with a video camera, C.A.M.S.® software, a personal computer, and a motorized X-Y axis positioning table. The video camera aids in defining test locations and procedures, while the software manages the test head and motor control system.
Special Features:
  • Surface Independence: Less affected by surface conditions compared to optical systems, allowing testing on etched parts or surfaces with minimal finishing.
  • Case Depth Analysis: Simplified setup for staggered traverse procedures, enabling fast and accurate case depth measurement.
  • Test Setup Tools: C.A.M.S.® software provides comprehensive setup tools with intuitive prompts and menus for easy configuration.
Programming and Measurement Features:
  • File-Based Software: Allows saving of setup parameters in .csv format, including part details and comments.
  • Scale Selection: Primary and secondary scales can be configured, with options for averaging results and setting tolerances.
  • Traverse Measurements: Supports straight and staggered traverses, multiple traverse modes, and effective case depth calculations.
Operation and Data Management: The system offers user-friendly on-screen navigation tools, comprehensive data management, and report generation capabilities. It includes various report formats and statistical analysis tools.
Specifications:
  • Test Cycle: Rockwell, penetration depth
  • Cycle Time: Automatic with 1000 gf load
  • Position Accuracy: Motorized X-Y positioning with accuracy better than 0.00025”
  • Video: CCD video with 20-140X magnification
  • Operating Temperature: 50 to 120°F (10 to 49°C)
  • Warranty: 1 year
Ordering Information: The MT91 Series System is available in various configurations to suit specific applications, with options for vibration isolation pads and special software for graphic traverse on welds.
Conclusion: Newage Testing Instruments provides reliable and accurate hardness testing solutions with a focus on customer support and service. The MT91 System is ideal for high-volume applications requiring fast and precise microhardness testing.

Microhardness Traverse Testing System MT91 » Unmatched accuracy – using precise Rockwell-type testing method » Unrivalled testing speed – as fast as six seconds per test cycle led Unriva uracy! nd acc peed a s » No operator interpretation of impressions needed – removes a common source of inaccuracies » Custom fixturing – enables measurement of larger samples to further reduce prep time » Less sample polishing needed – a 400 grit polish is all that is needed for accurate results » Easy set up of traverses – up to 24 traverses for a single procedure » Numerous report formats – easy to transfer results internally, as well as to customers Better than traditional testing systems – Accurate, fast and easy testing The Newage® MT91 System is an automatic microhardness testing system that uses the Rockwell method for the hardness result. Hardness is measured based on the depth of penetration rather than using an optical system to determine hardness based on the impression diameter. The main advantages of the MT91 Series are its very fast test cycle coupled with its incredible test accuracy. No traditional microhardness testers can come close to matching the MT91 in speed or accuracy, since no manual interpretation of the impression is required. All systems conform to relevant EU standards and are CE marked Entire case depth analysis can be made in a few minutes – an individual test cycle is just six seconds. What used to take hours now takes only minutes – making the MT91 perfect for
