DynaPOCKET

The DynaPOCKET is a small, integrated digital hardness tester which operates according to the dynamic rebound method (standardized according to ASTM A956). The compact design allows easy on-site hardness testing on solid, non-transportable components and even on positions difficult to access by other hardness testers.

Quick and reproducible measurements can be made independent of impact direction due to a patented signal processing.

DynaPOCKET Digital Hardness Tester

Products Features

  • Compact, cable free design: impact device and display in one-instrument
  • Easy on-site hardness testing on solid, non-transportable components and even on positions difficult to access
  • Operation based on the Rebound (Leeb) Principle with special signal processing technique. The instrument senses the test direction and automatically compensates for gravitational effects.
  • Easily and clearly arranged operation via two keys
  • Hardness measurement independent of impact direction
  • Direct readout of the digitally displayed hardness value on a large LCD display
  • Display of the single or average value
  • Standard conversion tables stored for nine material groups
  • Conversion of the hardness value for hardness scales HL, HV, HB, HS HRB, HRC and N/mm2
  • Measurement ranges (material dependent) 150 to 1000 HL, 75 to 1000 HV, 75 to 700 HB, 30 to 100 HS, 35 to 100 HRB, 20 to 70 HRC, 250 to 2200 N/mm2
  • Measurement accuracy (standard deviation) ± 4 HL or 0,5 % at 800 HL (average value of 5 measurements related to the average value of the hardness reference block)
  • Operates on s tandard batteries (2 x AAA)

Applications

  • On-site hardness testing:
    • Heavy, non-transportable components
    • Difficult to access positions
    • Series parts during production
    • For material identification
  • Materials:
    • Solid, coarse grained test objects
    • Forged parts with inhomogeneous surface structure
    • Cast materials
