Product catalog summary
Product Overview
The hot hardness testing system by Hegewald & Peschke is designed for testing high temperature-resistant materials like ceramics and sintered metals at temperatures up to 1500°C. It is suitable for use in research laboratories by qualified personnel.

System Components
The system consists of two main components: the hot hardness testing device and the evaluation unit. The testing device includes a furnace chamber with heating, vacuum technology, and sample handling capabilities. The evaluation unit allows for parallel test preparation and data evaluation.

Design and Functionality
The system features a compact, two-part design with a servo-controlled spindle drive for generating test loads. It includes a vacuum chamber that can be extended and water-cooled if necessary. The system is equipped with a lock and handling system for efficient sample exchange without cooling the heating chamber.

Technical Specifications
- Power Supply: 400 V / 50 Hz / 16 A
- Power Consumption: Max. 4.5 kW
- Cooling Water: 15-25°C, 3-4 bar, max. 100 l/min
- Dimensions: 2040 x 850 x 2500 mm, approx. 350 kg
- Load Capacity: Max. 300 N, motor-driven
- Temperature Range: 300°C to 1500°C, ± 5K
- Vacuum Capability: Down to 10-6 mbar

Operational Features
The system supports automatic control of load measurement, program-controlled X-Y positioning, and monitoring to prevent collisions. It includes a vacuum system with a cylindrical chamber, tungsten resistance heating, and multiple thermocouples for temperature control.

Safety and Maintenance
The system includes interlocks for security, such as pressure and cooling water monitoring. It features a protective casing for the probe and a maintenance position for easy access to the indenter.

Vickers hardness tester up to 1500°C-2

Product description Basic concept The system is made up of two basic components: The hot hardness testing device and the evaluation unit. The cooperation of both elements allows for a high testing capacity. The test preparations and evaluations including the log preparation can be done parallel to running tests in the kiln with the help of the evaluation unit. The dataset with all testing para-meters, including the positions, is compiled and saved at the evaluation pc with the optionally connectable measuring microscope. The sample is introduced into the hardness tester and the dataset is loaded....

The sample plates are fixed with the help of temperature-resistant wire cramps or adhesives. The reference position is transmitted from the evaluation unit to the hardness tester and back again. The hardness tester works semiautomatically. The handling of the samples with the activation of the vacuum, gas setup and the starting of the test are done manually. The procedure of heating with hold times, movement to the testing position and setting of imprints is done automatically. The combination of multiple measuring series in one dataset allows for working at different temperature steps in one...

Vickers hardness tester up to 1500°C-4

The necessary test loads are generated with the help of a servo-controlled spindle drive and can be actuated with the controller. The necessary load measurement for the control of loading is integrated on the vacuum side of the probe. Thus, no shunt forces, as might occur in feedthroughs and bellows, can influence the test. With this design it is also possible to apply small test loads. A reference weight is automatically analysed with every new measuring series for a permanent control of the load sensors. This ensures that no driftings of the sensors due to vacuum and high temperatures falsify...
