About
National Physical Laboratory awarded a contract to Hardness Calibrations for the replacement of a Rockwell hardness machine, valued at AUD 50,000.
The machine is required to measure standard Rockwell hardnesses (scales A, C, and superficial N) for characterising material and coating properties in research.
It must be calibratable to international standards, have a minimum stage size of 100 x 100 mm, and ideally support non-standard tests and data export for developing new characterisation techniques.
