Focused on usability on-the-ground.\nThe HR-600 Series, in addition to a standard Rockwell hardness testing model, offers machines with high added \nvalue that can test micro-Brinell hardness and the hardness of plastics as well, and also a lineup of models with \nY-axis stage mobility that support fully automatic multi-point Rockwell hardness testing. Its key focus is on usability \non the ground, where a wide range of materials — from metals to plastics — may need to be tested.\n5\n\n\nPage 6\nDESIGN\nNew design with \nfunctional beauty\nWith a table for mounting workpieces and \nhead with vertical mobility, the HR-600 Series \nis built for operability and usability. \nIts new design is highly focused on end-user \nusability, and the entire product structure has \nbeen inventively modified for functional \nbeauty — a true embodiment of Mitutoyo’s \npioneering spirit.\n6\n\n\nPage 7\nF i r s t M i t u t o y o har d ne s s te s te r s with mo v ing he ad s\nL a r g e r t a b l e s e xp and the r ang e o f me as ur e me nts\nL a r g e w o r k p i e ce s c an b e mo unte d e as ily\nTables were too small and lacked depth; \nlarge workpieces could not be mounted or \nmeasured.\nMaximum loading 20 kg \nDepth (from indenter center) 150 mm\nTables are bigger and have more depth, allowing large work-\npieces to be mounted and measured as is.\nMaximum loading 100 kg\nDepth (from indenter center) 220 mm\nLarge workpieces such as cylinder blocks \ncan be mounted on the table as is. \nTesting of heavy workpieces weighing up to \n100 kg is supported.\nHR-600 series\nDesign that pushes the boundaries of \nmeasurement diversity\nFirst Mitutoyo hardness testers ever to be \nequipped with moving heads (the head \nmoves at a speed of 10 mm/s within a \n210 mm range).\n10 mm/s\nSpeed along Z-axis [drive unit]\n40 mm\n210 mm \nMovement along Z-axis [drive unit]\n7\n\n\nPage 8\nWORKPIECE\nSupports testing of a wide range of \nworkpiece, from metals to plastics\nThe HR-600 Series can test a wide variety of \nworkpiece, ranging from those made of metal \n(crankshafts, cylinder blocks, etc.) to softer \nworkpieces (brake pads, plastic parts, etc.), \nand supports both Rockwell and Light Force \nBrinell hardness testing on a single machine.\n8\n\n\nPage 9\nP l a s t i c p a r t s\nC r a n k s h a f t\nC y l i n d e r h e a d\nG e a r\nC y l i n d e r b l o c k\nB r a k e p a d s\nAllows users to set \nsequences as required by \nthe standards for testing \nplastic hardness (i.e. \napplying, maintaining, \nand removing the test \nload, and then reading \nthe hardness value).\nThe head moves vertically \nduring testing to avoid \ncolliding with the \nworkpiece. Installing a \nsliding jig onto the fixed \nstage allows for efficient \ntesting.\nLarge and heavy cylinder \nheads that were difficult \nto measure using \nhardness testers with \nelevating tables can now \nbe mounted and \nmeasured on a fixed \nstage.\nPost-heat treatment \nhardness of multiple \nparts of gears (tooth \nflank, face and tip, etc.) \ncan be tested.*\nLarge and heavy cylinder \nblocks that were difficult \nto measure using \nhardness testers with \nelevating tables can now \nbe tested by mounting \nthem on a fixed stage.\nSupports HRR and HRS, \nwhich use ball indenters, \nand other scales as well.*\n* \u0007Models providing Y-axis stage mobility (for \nmulti-point testing of a single specimen and \nsimultaneous testing of multiple specimens) \nand X-axis stages (optional) also available.\n9\n\n\nPage 10\nUSABILITY\nEnhanced usability and operability effectively \nreduce measurement/analysis time\nThe display screen lets you view test results on the spot. You can choose from five displays (see page 11), according \nto what you need to view. The screens are touch-screen enabled to deliver excellent usability. \nThe HR-600 Series also offers many features useful for measurement and analysis, such as those that allow the user \nto directly select the hardness scale of their choice and statistical analysis features that can help them analyze \nmultiple test results. Its enhanced usability will streamline your workflow by reducing measurement and analysis \ntime and in other ways as well.\n10\n\n\nPage 11\nNavigation feature informs users of set \ntest points. Users can perform \nmulti-point tests, such as the Jominy test, \nthrough simple operations.\nDisplays test results and scales only, and \nprovides an at-a-glance view of test \nconditions, making it suitable for tests \nthat are repeated under the same \nconditions.\nDisplays test results and conditions.

The initial test force and total \ntest force are automatically set according \nto the selected scale.\nDisplays the five most recent test results \nin list format. Suited for checking the \norder and average values of test results, \nand also variations in the results.\nQuality management decisions based on \nhardness testing of industrial materials \nare made using multi-point test results. \nThe statistical analysis feature, which can \ncalculate the maximum, minimum, \naverage, standard deviation and other \nvalues, is useful for analyzing multi-point \ntest results.\nList display (5-point display)\nDirect hardness scale selection\nCurved surface compensation feature\nStatistical analysis\nA touch screen that can toggle between \ndifferent views enables excellent control of \na rich palette of features.\n11\n\n\nPage 12\nSOFTWARE AVPAK V3\nEnables smooth and efficient measurements\nAVPAK, using part programs, enables automated multi-point testing in \nthe X-, Y- and Z-axis directions.\nSoftware that enables external control of \nmeasuring instruments through PLC, \nallowing users to control them and \nmonitor their status via RS-232C or LAN \ncommunication.\nSoftware you can use to create test \nreports, perfect for evaluating hardened \nlayers in steel alloys.
