Since 1936, Buehler has been a leader in the engineering and design of metallographic equipment and since 2012, Buehler also became the manufacturer of the Wilson brand of Hardness Testers. Buehler is celebrating the 100-year anniversary of Wilson this year and with that we are excited to host the first ever Wilson Hardness Days.
How would you know if your Rockwell Hardness Tester will provide an accurate reading or is reliable? A typical way is to verify with a certified calibration test block. It is easy if you understand the basic principle of a Rockwell test and follow some simple guideline. A Rockwell test
Congratulations to Rudolf Mayer and Steve McMahon ITW, the parent company of Buehler recently recognized two outstanding engineers Rudolf Mayer, Buehler and Steve McMahon, Instron for their contributions to the design of the VH3100 /3300 micro-hardness products. A Vickers hardness tester presses a pyramidal diamond indenter into the surface
Focus on the task – improve efficiency Hardness testing is commonly used in the field of process control of heat treatment and to evaluate surface hardness and case-hardened depths of surface engineered materials. Hardness case evaluations can be highly automated, which can represent enormous savings in terms of time and
Holding a metallographic sample both steady and level during hardness testing is essential to ensure accurate and repeatable results. To make this mount both convenient to use, versatile and effective can be a challenge. An innovative fixturing method was developed by Buehler’s Wilson Hardness Testing Group over 10 years ago.
Welded joints are nowadays indispensable in the automotive and aviation industry. Welds usually combine metallic components to form a structure that is then assembled in production and assembly with other subassemblies. The welds must be able to withstand extreme loads as they are the weak points of the construction. [embedyt]
