Home >> Services >> Onsite Hardness Testing
We offer on-site testing of heavy or large components difficult to access having confined test locations before or after installation by using state of the art portable hardness testing equipments
For offering this service we use Equotip 3, Equotip Bambino 2 & other portable rebound hardness testers that work on Leeb Rebound Principle.
Leeb Rebound Principle
Leeb rebound method invented by Proceq scientist Dietmar Leeb in the 1970s, in which the hardness value is calculated from comparing the energy of a test body before and after impacting on a sample. This Energy Quotient (EQUO) is quoted in the hardness unit HL and is calculated from comparing the impact and rebound velocities (VI, VR) of the impact body. It rebounds faster from harder samples than from softer ones, resulting in a greater energy quotient which is defined as 1000*VR/VI.
