Automation can offer real benefits to users of hardness testing. Automation of time-cycle, indenter and table control can significantly increase reliability and speed of the test. Automatic operation can be combined with an automatic microscope to produce a fully-automatic hardness tester with records of the test results. Addition of handling equipment will allow a fully automatic hardness tester to function as an integral part of a production line.

Foundrax offer a modular range of automated machines to meet customers needs for increased speed and reliability of Brinell hardness testing within their budget.
