SonoDur-R (Rack): 19” desktop device for automated UCI hardness testing

SonoDur-R is a 19” desktop device for fully automated, 100% checks of mass-produced parts. The measurement system enables rapid process monitoring (at one-second intervals) of mix-up testing procedures.

Its main areas of application are serial parts following heat treatment, surface processing or measuring coating hardness on gravure cylinders with highly-selective low-load motorised probes.

Thanks to its USB- and fully-isolated, digital I/O interface, the SonoDur-R ‘Rack’ is currently the world’s only automated UCI hardness measurement system which is fully system-compatible. Setpoints allow factors such as good/bad sorting gates to be controlled directly.

The SonoDur-R combines all the benefits of the SonoDur2 mobile hardness testing device with the requirements for integrating a device into a fully-automated process line.
