Rockwell Hardness Testing Machine
HR-530 Series
Unique electronic control makes the HR-530 series of hardness testers  
capable of Rockwell, Rockwell Superficial, Rockwell testing of plastics 
(A & B) and Light Force Brinell hardness testing.
HR-530
(810-237)
Maximum specimen size: 
Height 250 mm, Depth 150 mm
HR-530L
(810-337)
Maximum specimen size: 
Height 395 mm, Depth 150 mm

Inside ring hardness testing
Display with color touch-screen

Measurement with a nose indenter shaft 
A nose-type indenter enables measurement not only of the flat top surface 
of a specimen, but also the inside surface of a cylindrical specimen.
Continuous measurement function 
RS-232C, Digimatic and USB interface ports
When testing multiple workpieces with the same height, continuous testing 
is possible by pressing the foot switch or the START button. 
Graphic display of statistical calculation results 
and X¯-R control charts
This series allows numeric 
display of statistical analysis 
results such as maximum and 
minimum values, mean value 
and graphic display of X¯-R 
control charts and histograms 
required for hardness 
evaluation.
Test the hardness of the inside wall of a ring without cutting the ring 
into pieces. (All models.) Minimum diameter is 34 mm, but inside 
diameters as small as 22 mm can be tested by using the optional 5 mm 
diamond indenter (19BAA292).
When space restrictions are an 
issue, the touch-panel display 
unit can be mounted on top 
of the tester.
The HM and HV series user 
interface has been adapted 
to include Rockwell hardness 
testing capabilities. Versatile 
color screens display the results 
of statistical calculations and 
graphics functions, etc.
5.7-inch color LCD

Touch-panel display and function
The HR-530/530L models offer the combination of functionality and operability in a touch-panel display.
HR-530
(810-237)
•Standard operating display
•Direct hardness scale selection
The required hardness scale  can be selected 
with the touch panel. The initial test force 
and loading force are automatically set in 
accordance with the selected scale.
•Curved surface compensation 
and measurement
The curved-surface correction function enables 
curved surfaces, such as round bars and 
spheres, to be tested for hardness as easily as 
flat surfaces.
Statistical calculation results and 
test conditions can be stored 
as text data and graphs can be 
stored as graphic data.
•Statistical analysis
The quality control of industrial materials by 
hardness testing uses a judgment based on 
multi-point test results. Moreover, the statistical 
calculation of the maximum value, minimum value, 
mean value, standard deviation, etc., is useful when 
analyzing multi-point test results.

•Simple display
•List display (mean value)
•Multi-point test display
•List display (5-point display)
Provided with the navigation function to lead to each test 
point that has been set. This display is dedicated to the 
Jominy test which allows multi-point testing with simple 
operation.
Displays records of test results as a list. This display is 
appropriate for establishing the relationship between prior 
and subsequent test results in terms of variation and mean 
value.
Only displays a test result and scale, making it appropriate 
for repeated testing under the same conditions.
Displays the mean hardness value averaged over multiple 
arbitrarily specified points.
