EN ISO 6507-2 Verification of Vickers Hardness Test
The EN ISO 6507-2:2014 standard provides a comprehensive approach for the verification of hardness testing using the Vickers hardness test method. This service ensures that the hardness values obtained from the Vickers hardness tester are accurate and reliable, meeting international standards.
The process involves subjecting a calibrated diamond indenter to indentation on a standard block material (usually steel) under controlled conditions. The resulting indentation is measured precisely using a microscope or comparable device. The average length of the diagonal sides of the indentation provides the Vickers hardness number HVn, where n represents the unit of force used.
The service includes:
- Preparation and calibration of the Vickers hardness tester according to ISO standards.
- Indentation on a standard block material for reference purposes.
- Measurement of indentation diagonals using a high-precision microscope or comparable instrument.
- Comprehensive analysis and comparison with the expected values from the standard.
- Generation of detailed reports that meet all relevant regulatory requirements.
