  2. Knoop hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knoop_hardness_test

    The main disadvantages are the difficulty of using a microscope to measure the indentation (with an accuracy of 0.5 micrometre), and the time needed to prepare the sample and apply the indenter. Variables such as load, temperature, and environment, may affect this procedure, which have been examined in detail.

  3. Rockwell hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockwell_hardness_test

    The Rockwell test does not use any optical equipment to measure the hardness indention, rather all calculations are done within the machine to measure the indention in the specimen. [ 13 ] The equation for Rockwell hardness is H R = N − h ∗ d {\displaystyle HR=N-h*d} , where d is the depth in mm (from the zero load point), and N and h are ...

  4. Micrometer (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micrometer_(device)

    Bore micrometer, typically a three-anvil head on a micrometer base used to accurately measure inside diameters. Tube micrometers have a cylindrical anvil positioned perpendicularly to a spindle and is used to measure the thickness of tubes. Micrometer stops are micrometer heads that are mounted on the table of a manual milling machine, bedways ...

  5. Handloading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handloading

    A precision weighing scale is a near necessity for reloading. While it is possible to load using nothing but a powder measure and a weight-to-volume conversion chart, this greatly limits the precision with which a load can be adjusted, increasing the danger of accidentally overloading cartridges with powder for loads near or at the maximum safe ...

  6. Indentation hardness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indentation_hardness

    When testing metals, indentation hardness correlates roughly linearly with tensile strength, [1] but it is an imperfect correlation often limited to small ranges of strength and hardness for each indentation geometry. This relation permits economically important nondestructive testing of bulk metal deliveries with lightweight, even portable ...

  7. Particle-size distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-size_distribution

    It turns out that instead of measuring scattered energy versus angle, as with light, in the case of ultrasound, measuring the transmitted energy versus frequency is a better choice. The resulting ultrasound attenuation frequency spectra are the raw data for calculating particle size distribution.

  8. Snap gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snap_gauge

    Snap go/no go gauge and indicator snap gauge. A snap gauge is a form of go/no go gauge.It is a limit gauge with permanently or temporarily fixed measurement aperture(s) (gaps) which is used to quickly verify whether an outside dimension of a part matches a preset dimension or falls within predefined tolerances.

  9. Force gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force_gauge

    An example of an electrical force gauge is an "electronic scale". One or more electrical load cells (commonly referred to as "weigh bars") are used to support a vertical or horizontal "live load" and are solid-state potentiometers which have variable internal resistance proportional to the load they are subjected to and deflected by.
