Lecture

In the forum "Hardness 2016" which is held from the national material testing laboratory MPA NRW in cooperation with the MPA Darmstadt we would like to inform you about new developments and current issues in the hardness testing sector. The MPA NRW is the largest calibration laboratory for hardness reference blocks, indenters and material-testing machines in Germany. The employees of the MPA NRW participate in the national and international standardisation bodies as well as in VDI/VDE and AWT. Key subjects:

  • Innovations in the standardisation of hardness tests
  • Conversion of measurement results into other hardness scales
  • Evaluating tensile properties from hardness values
  • Mobile hardness testing
  • Calculating measuring inaccuracies

NewSonic refers about "Overview of the different mobile hardness testers and their application possibilities".
