BrinGen 3000 - Digital Brinell Hardness Tester is designed to test the resistance of a metal specimen for indentation. A fixed force (load) is applied against the specimen by an indenter to determine the material hardness. The smaller the indentation, the stronger the specimen is. According to the ASTM E-10 BrinGen - Digital Brinell Hardness Tester is commonly used on surfaces of materials that are too rough to be tested by any other test method. Learn all about the Brinell Hardness Testing System here.
The test load ranges are from 62.5kgf to 3000kfg. BrinGen 3000 Series - Digital Brinell Hardness Testing system is equipped with a closed loop system for the absolute highest accuracy load control. Closed loop driven system provides precise control of test force application.
BrinGen 3000 Series - Digital Brinell Hardness Testing systems are standalone units that can easily be upgraded to include the NG-Scope - Brinell Hardness Image Automatic Measuring system - for the most accurate results through an optical Analysis Software.

All NextGen's Metal hardness testers including the Digital Brinell hardness Testing System come with standard configurations that include the certified test blocks and indenters. This allows for a simple plug and play solution of your digital Brinell hardness testing system. Upon ordering the machine, we ask that you provide us with the hardness value of your desired block and the test loads that you will be using on the material in order to provide you with a NIST Certified test block. This allows your Digital Brinell Hardness Testing system to be calibrated within minutes for your long-term quality control operations. Additional test blocks, indenters and carbide balls for your digital Brinell hardness testing system can be purchased from NextGen at a later time. Contact us today to learn more.
For larger, heavy, and unusually shaped specimens we would recommend to look into the Portable Brinell Hardness Tester options. Commonly, our LeebGen 3000 - Leeb Rebound Portable Hardness Tester for Brinell Hardness Testing equivalent is the go to instrument for the job.
