AFFRI ATI B3000
Overview

About the ATI B3000

ATI B3000 is an automatic Brinell hardness tester, fully performant and easy to use, making it the best choice for efficience and to mesure any surface on large or small products.

ATI B3000 is automatic Brinell hardness tester for Brinell hardness testing. Simply select the desired hardness scale and press the START button. The tester automatically positions the test piece against the indenter, initiating the loading cycle with no manual effort required.

The integrated turret efficiently manages indenter and objective switching, ensuring seamless operation. By touching the indentation image, you can instantly view the results on the large graphic display. Once the measurement is complete, the ATI B3000 is ready for the next test, enhancing your productivity.

How the ATI B3000 works

Automatic Brinell test cycle directly in production line and in laboratory

ATI B3000 is automatic Brinell hardness tester for Brinell hardness testing. Simply select the desired hardness scale and press the START button. The tester automatically positions the test piece against the indenter, initiating the loading cycle with no manual effort required.

The integrated turret efficiently manages indenter and objective switching, ensuring seamless operation. By touching the indentation image, you can instantly view the results on the large graphic display. Once the measurement is complete, the ATI B3000 is ready for the next test, enhancing your productivity.

With its combination of performance and user-friendliness, the ATI B3000 hardness tester is the ideal solution for accurately measuring hardness on various surfaces, whether for large or small products. Choose the ATI B3000 for reliable and efficient Brinell hardness testing.

Automatic Turret at 5 Positions

ATI B3000 is equipped with a multi-positions automatic turret, which has 5 steps: 3 indenters for Brinell hardness tests and 2 optic lens for the indentation reading (20X 40X).

Its turret has a 360° horizontal rotation with indenter and lens.

During the Brinell test cycle, ATI B3000 is fully autonomous and motorized: just push the START button and the head performs the test cycle in automatic succession without breaching a phase and with automatic switching for a fully automatic and motorized test cycle.

Software

The software makes the measurement automated in each its phase: set the hardness test scales, check the camera properties, set the standard test method, conversion scales, manage the instrument tools and check if the installed instrument is correct and compliant with the selected hardness test method. The lists of results and their images are stored in the archive. The results are automatically transformed into graphs and statistics, in order to facilitate their control. Data can be exported by USB.

The software controls the entire measurement cycle and automatically adjusts the hardness test parameters.

Save time: only 1 minute to get the Brinell result.
