Cometech QC-DR3 Digital Rockwell Hardness Tester | Motorized Loading | 12 Scales HRA–HRR | 0.1 HR | 5.2" Touch Screen

  • Digital Rockwell hardness tester with motorized loading control — eliminates manual loading error through automatic motor-driven load application and unloading while still requiring the operator to position the specimen; conforms to GB/T230.2, JIS Z2245, EN-ISO 6508, ASTM E-18.
  • 12 Rockwell scales: HRA, HRB, HRC, HRD, HRE, HRF, HRG, HRH, HRK, HRL, HRM, HRR; preliminary force: 10 kgf; total force: 60 / 100 / 150 kgf; holding time: 1–60s adjustable; resolution: 0.1 HR.
  • 5.2" touch screen panel showing test force, holding time, conversion value, and indenter type; auto calculates Max, Min, Average, and hardness deviation; hardness scale conversion: HRC, HV, HBS, HBW, HK, HAR, HR15N/30N/45N, HS, HRF, HR15T/30T/45T, HRB.
  • Memory: 2000 single results + 1000 group results; dimensions: 520×215×700mm; weight: 90 kg; power: AC220V/50Hz or AC110V/60Hz.

Overview

The Cometech QC-DR3 Digital Rockwell Hardness Tester occupies the middle tier of the Cometech Rockwell range — above the manual dial QC-HR150A, and below the fully automatic QC-DR1 — by offering motorized load application and unloading, which removes the main source of operator-to-operator variation in Rockwell testing without requiring the full automatic platform and specimen handling of the QC-DR1.
The 5.2" color touch screen provides real-time test parameter display and automatic hardness scale conversion across 16+ scales without referencing conversion tables, and the built-in software correction (±3.0 HR, 0.1 HR step) allows fast in-instrument calibration offsets.
With the same compact footprint as the manual QC-HR150A (520×215×700mm, 90kg) but with digital precision at 0.1 HR resolution and 2000-result memory, the QC-DR3 is well suited for laboratories needing improved reproducibility without the full footprint or cost of a fully automated system.

Key Features

  • Motorized loading control — automatic motor-driven load application, hold, and unloading eliminates manual loading variation.
  • 12 Rockwell scales: HRA, HRB, HRC, HRD, HRE, HRF, HRG, HRH, HRK, HRL, HRM, HRR.
  • 0.1 HR resolution — 5× finer than the manual QC-HR150A (0.5 HR dial) model.
  • 5.2" color touch screen — displays test force, holding time, conversion value, indenter type.
  • Auto hardness scale conversion: HRC, HV, HBS, HBW, HK, HAR, HRD, HR15N/30N/45N, HS, HRF, HR15T/30T/45T, HRB.
  • Auto statistics: Max, Min, Average, hardness deviation per test group.
  • Software correction: −3.0 HR to +3.0 HR in 0.1 HR steps — no mechanical adjustment required.
  • Memory: 2000 single results + 1000 group results.
  • Holding time: 1–60s adjustable for creep-sensitive materials.
  • Compact footprint: 520×215×700mm — same size as manual QC-HR150A, significantly smaller than QC-DR1.
  • Languages: Chinese, English, German, Portuguese, Turkish, Czech, Korean.
