Hardnesses of metal parts and constructions measured for comparison by small hardness testers with different principles of operation

详细

The existing handheld and portable hardness testers are classified depending on their operating principles. The advantages and disadvantages of the measurement procedures and the hardness testers are considered. The hardnesses of the metal parts with different masses and stiffness are measured by mechanical and physical-mechanical hardness testers and compared. The test errors are estimated. Recommendations for the calibration of the hardness testers of physical and mechanical operating principles are given.
