If the steel is decarburized, it means the surface of the steel has lost carbon. If either of the conditions described in part 1 exists, the steel will have been subjected to...
The DiaMet hardness testing software upgrade is now available for legacy Wilson testers. DiaMet can integrate and transform legacy testers to improve quality management using the software’s database.
The microstructure of a material represents its fundamental properties, and most heat treatments are performed to tailor these properties to a specific need. Good metallographic preparation allows faster and more-accurate quality control – whether a microstructural inspection or performing specific tests such as case-depth analysis.
The Buehler Wilson Reference Block Laboratory in Binghamton, N.Y., achieved accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025 by A2LA (American Association for Laboratory Accreditation) for Rockwell, Knoop, Vickers and Brinell hardness-testing blocks and indenters. A2LA is in full conformance with the standards of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electro-Technical Commission (IEC), including ISO/IEC 17025. Buehler markets the reference blocks along with the Wilson hardness testers and DiaMet software globally.
Rockwell hardness testing is one of the seemingly easiest tests to perform on the shop floor, in the quality-control department or in the metallurgical laboratory but arguably one of the hardest tests to perform properly. Let's learn more.
