Description
NG-RockGen S-DGEN – Digital Rockwell Hardness Tester
Overview
The NG-RockGen S-DGEN is a digital Rockwell superficial hardness tester designed to measure hardness by evaluating the depth of penetration of an indenter under a major load compared to a preload, in accordance with the Rockwell method. The S-DGEN configuration focuses on superficial Rockwell scales, making it a practical choice for applications where controlled, repeatable testing is required.
Superficial Rockwell Capability
The S-DGEN supports superficial Rockwell scales including HR15N, HR30N, HR45N and HR15T, HR30T, HR45T, along with additional scales used within this configuration. This enables a flexible workflow for a wide range of metal testing needs.
Automatic Testing for Repeatable Results
- Automatic test cycles: indentation and reading are performed automatically to reduce operator influence.
- Clear digital readout: results are shown on a large LCD display for easy interpretation.
- High accuracy: the system provides 0.001 resolution to support precise measurements.
- Repeatability-focused design: built to deliver consistent results across routine testing programs.
Built for Daily Production & Lab Use
With a user-friendly operational menu and durable construction, the NG-RockGen S-DGEN is designed for efficient day-to-day hardness testing. It is well suited for quality control environments that need a reliable, consistent superficial Rockwell workflow with straightforward operation.
Documentation & Data Handling
For traceability and reporting, the system supports practical documentation through a built-in printer and RS-232 connectivity.
Typical Applications
Chilled steel, hardened and tempered steel, annealed steel, casting, malleable cast, hard alloy, hardened steel plate, aluminum alloy, and bearings steel.
