    3.Constructıon Of The Machine The machine body is of fully enclosed steel fabrication which protects the inside mechanisms and systems from dust and extraneous elements. The machine can be divided into three systems. 1. Loading system. 2. Optic system. 3. Indexing system.

    3.1 Loading System (Refer Drg. No. 1,2 & 3) The Machine has C shaped body (01) covered with Top cover (02) and Back Cover (03). The lower part of the Body carries a main nut (04) which is resting on thrust bearing (06). Main Screw (05) is located at the centre of the Main Nut. This main screw can be raised or lowered with the help of main nut depending on the height of the specimen. The specimen supporting table (07) is fitted at the main screw top. Bush holder (08) is fitted from bottom to the upper arm of the C frame. Bush (09) is shrunk fitted in the bush holder. There are four compression springs (12) equi-spaced in the bush holder. Spindle (10) is guided in the bush and rests on the springs (12). Due to the springs there is always contact between flat support on spindle (11) and male vee on the main lever (16). Base of index head (09) is fixed at the bottom of the spindle. Index head (13) is free to rotate between two needle roller bearings (14). The bearings are fixed between base (9) and bearing cap (09 A). Upper support plate (88) is fixed at the bottom of bush holder (08) Two support bars (89) are fixed to upper support plate. Lower support plate (90) is fixed to these bars at such a position that when the specimen just touches the lower face of the lower support plate, its top face is at the focal point of the objective for a clear view of the indentation. Lever (15) is located in the upper portion of the frame. At front face of the lever male vees (16) are fitted. External pair of male vee rest on the fulcrum plate female vee 17) and (internal pair of male vee rests on the Spindle flat support (11). The middle portionof the lever carries roller (18) and roller shaft (19). The roller rests on the top adjuster (20). This top adjuster is screwed into the lifter (21). The tail of the lever carries hanger bracket (22). Bottom weight (23) and weight shaft (24) are fixed to the hanger bracket. Weights (25) can be stacked on the bottom weight. In the lower rear portion of the frame, compact power pack is installed. This power pack consists of Oil Tank (26) with oil tank cover (39). On the tank cover, flanged motor (27) is vertically mounted. The gear pump (28) which is submerged in the oil tank is connected to the motor by flexible coupling (29). The delivery of gear pump is connected to the specially designed cylinder (30). The cylinder block also contains direction control valve (32) throttle valve (33) and a pressure relief valve (34). D. C. valve can be operated by handle (35) which is screwed to the shifter shaft (36). Shifter shaft is connected to the spool via shifter arm (37). Oil level indicator (38) is provided on the tank cover. The lifter with its bottom adjuster (40) rests on the piston (31). Lifter is guided in the bush (41) and its positive contact with lever roller is achieved by providing compression spring (42).

    3.2 Optic System (Refer Drg. No. 4 & 5) This mainly consists of following three sub assemblies : 1) Illumination System. 2) Magnification System and 3) Measuring Device.

  • BMS 3000-OB Operation

    Rev:00 5 / 30 Manual

    3.2.1 Illumination System

    The basic purpose of the system is to provide a bright condensed spot light on the object. It consists of the light source (43), at one end of the condenser tube (44) with a condenser lens (45) at its other end. A reflector mirror (52) is also provided for directing the light on the object.

    3.2.2 Magnification System

    The object is first magnified by the 2x objective (53) which is fixed at the bottom end of the optic tube (47). The optic tube is suspended exactly at the centre of the spindle with the help of holder support (48) and holder (49), The twice magnified image of the object is further magnified by 7 x projecting lens (54) fixed at the top side of the optic tube. Thus totally 14x magnified image is projected by the magnification system on the Prism (55), which changes its direction through 900 and projects it further on the screen (57).

    3.2.3 Measuring Device

    The 14x magnified image, projected on the screen, can be measured by this device. The types of glass scales, one frosted (67) and the other plain (66) are provided. These scales slide over each other and also have provision of Vernier Scale. A micrometer device (69) is also provided for further precise measurement of the image. The measuring device can be turned through complete 3600, so that measurement on any axis of the indentation can be taken.

    3.3 Indexing System (Refer Drg. No. 1,2 & 3) The system is basically for bringing the indentor axis at the centre of spindle axis before loading and also for tilting the indentor so that the optic axis is made clear for viewing the indentation. The system operates automatically with a feedback from the position of the main lever. An adjustable knob (80) is provided at the tail end of the main lever. At the top position of the lever, it operates a D.C. valve (75). This D.C. valve further operates the Turret Pusher piston (82) and the Turret (13) is tilted along with indentor (65). Thus at the top most position of the lever, there is a clear view of the object to the optic system. For loading, when the lever starts moving down the D.C. valve returns to its original position and the piston of the turret pusher is pushed back. The spring loaded turret returns to its original position, making the indentor vertical, at the centre of the spindle and ready for indentation.

    4.Installation Of The Machine

    4.1 Unpacking

    The machine being a precision testing equipment, should be handled carefully. Maximum precaution is tobe taken while packing to prevent any dam ages in transit.

    extension by rotating the main nut.

    4.3 Cleaning

    Clean all the parts which have been applied with grease / rust preventive. Never use solvents, which might damage the parts. Make up and down movement of main screw for three four times and remove grease locked in the threading. Ensure smooth, sliding motion of the main screw. Clean thrust bearing by removing it from the main nut. Also clean the main nut especially where thrust bearing rests. Apply thin film of lubricating oil to the bearing and reassemble it. Take out test table from main screw and check bearing surface of the main screw as well as of test table. Also swivel indexing head three four time and check whether the needle roller bearings are free or not.

    4.4 Levelling Of The Machine

    Level the machine within 1 : 1000 by using compound lever. Top face of the test table to be used as a reference face. For levelling use four levelling screws provided for this purpose. (Provide steel strips at the bottom of levelling screws if necessary). After levelling, provide taper wedges / steel strips near all foundation bolts, tighten nuts, release levelling screws and re check the level, adjust again if necessary.

    4.5 Weights

    Weights of this machine are packed separately along with a weight shaft. Fit the weight shaft with bottom weight having tapping at the centre. Then tighten the same assembly to the hanger bracket with the help of check nut. The effective load applied by lever, hanger bracket, weight shaft and bottom weight is equivalent to 500 kg. Remaining ten loose weights have 250 kg. effective weight each.

    4.6 Screen Assembly

    4.7 Hydraulic Oil Fill-Up

    Remove oil indicator and fill up Avalon 58 or Servo system 32 oil approx.22 liters. Check the oil level and adjust suitably, avoided less or excess oil. Refit oil level indicator.

    4.8 Electrical Connections (Refer Drg. No. 9.) Connect the plug of mains supply cord to the suitable mains socket. Press the green push button of starter (59) and check whether motor (27) is rotating according to the arrow. The earthing should be done by connecting the earth wire to brass screw functioning of the light source.

    4.9 Loading Speed Adjustment

    The loading speed is adjusted in the factory at its optimum level and locked by check nut. In case of any speed change/adjustment is needed it can be done by loosening the check nut and adjusting the cheese head screw. Clock-wise rotation of the screw will decrease the loading speed and anti-clockwise rotation of the screw will increase the loading speed.

    5.Preparation For The Test Check and adjust if required the following functions of the system before starting the first sample test. Keep only bottom weight (500 kg. load) for initial testing. 5.1 The main screw should be taken up and down several times to confirm its free motion. 5.2 Start the electric motor keeping the handle at ‘Load’ position.

    Change the handle to ‘Unload’ position and check that the lever starts going up. 5.3 When the lever goes to the top most position it should operate the D.C. valve. The

    movement of the D.C. valve should be around 10 mm. 5.4 When the lever is at the top position the turret should get indexed such that the optic

    axis is clear for view. 5.5 Position a test block with indentation on the support table and take up screw such that

    the specimen just touches the lower support plate. 5.6 For confirming clarity of optics please check following points in this position. 5.6.1. A bright spot light should be available from the condensing system on the test piece. 5.6.2. The position of lower support plate should have been adjusted such that a clear image

    of the object is seen on the screen. 5.6.3. For checking alignment of indentor axis and optic axis a fresh indentation should e

    taken with full 3000 kg. load and 10 mm ball indentor. The image of the indentation should come exactly at the centre of the screen.

    5.7 For checking the loading cycle, load the specimen by positioning the lever to ‘Load’ position. Confirm that the operation of the limit switch and indicating lamp are proper. i. e. as soon as full load is applied, the indicating lamp should glow.

    5.8 Unload the specimen, check the indentation. Take down the main screw and remove the specimen.

    6.Method Of Test For carrying out complete test the following procedure should be adopted very carefully.

    6.1 To Get The Impression

    6.1.1. Select proper size ball holder and fix it to the turret. Also arrange desired loads on the weight shaft. The ball size and weights to be selected as per the material to be tested. Refer following table for selection.

    5 mm 750 - -

    6.1.2 Actuate the toggle switch to switch on the lamp of light source. 6.1.3 Start the motor. 6.1.4 Keep the handle to unload position and wait until lever and hanger bracket reaches its

    top position. 6.1.5 Place the specimen on the test table. 6.1.6 Turn the main nut in clockwise direction, so that it just touches the bottom face

    of the lower support plate. 6.1.7 Now turn the handle to ‘Load’ position. Lever starts coming down and load is applied

    on the specimen. The ball indentor penetrates in the specimen to some extent and stops as the hardness of the specimen resists. Load indicating light illuminates. Now load is fully applied.

    6.1.8 The time of loading should be 8 to 10 seconds. On completion of loading period, turn the handle to ‘Unload’ position. with this the lever goes up and the load indicating lamp is put off.

    6.2 To View The Impression

    On reaching the lever at its top position the turret will get automatically indexed and the round image of indentation will be visible at the centre of the screen. This image will be ith 14x magnification.

    6.3 To Measure The Diameter Of Impression (Refer Drg. No. 6) The plain and frosted glass of the screen have uniform long graduations. Distance between consecutive line is 1 mm. There are 10 short graduations on frosted glass having distance 0.1 mm between two. Micrometer fitted to the screen has 10 equal divisions. Least count of micrometer is 0.01 mm. The diameter of the impression can be determined as below 6.3.1 Adjust and touch nearest long graduation at left of the impression by turning knob. 6.3.2 Adjust the nearest long graduation on the right of the impression by turning thimble of

    the micrometer, so that the graduation touches the impression at right. The middle line marked with 0, which is simultaneously moved must be always within the vernier scale.

    6.3.3 Count the long graduations enclosing the impression excluding the middle marked 0. The number of the division gives first place after the decimal point.

    6.3.4 Now count complete divisions on the vernier scale just before the long graduation. The number of the division gives first place after decimal point.

    6.3.5 Now read the micrometer reading. The number on micrometer give sec- ond place after decimal point.

    Beginners in handling the measuring equipment has a tendency to round off small values which causes to differ the calculated Brinell Hardness Number from the actual one.

    6.4 Unclamping The Specimen

    After the impression has been measured, unclamp the test specimen for this turn the main nut anti-clockwise to lower the specimen. Now take out the specimen, clamp it at another spot or replace by new one. If tests are over, then switch off the motor and condensing lamp.

  • BMS 3000-OB Operation

    Rev:00 9 / 30 Manual

    6.5 Evaluation Of The Test

    The Brinell Hardness No. is determined as the mean value of at least two impressions. For this refer the charts provided. See load applied, ball diameter and then see BHN according to the diameter of impression.

    7.Maıntenance Of The Machine The machine is being accurate and sensitive testing machine, it needs careful maintenance and attendance. Following is the recommended check list for effective and preventive maintenance of the machine.

    7.2 Calibration Of The Machine

    Immediately after installation of the machine, load calibration should be checked. This is to be checked by using standard calibrated Proving Ring (com pression type). The results are to be tabulated and to be verified against the standard requirement. The error permissible for the load calibration is k 1 %. For check of the machine with the Brinell penetrators the standard calibrated hard ness test plate should be used. Steel balls being used as penetrator, should be checked frequently. If there are deviations, replace the balls. Replace the condenser lamp every 1000 operating hours. For this, take off condensers tube, remove two screws and take off bulb holder, replace the bulb and reassemble the same. Adjust the light intensity by moving the holder forward or backward in the tube.

    7.3 Important Notes

    7.3.1 Turn the main nut continuously, jerky turning should be avoided. 7.3.2 When the interior of the machine is cleaned, make sure that the bush holder, spindle,

    turret, bearings, optical parts are not contaminated. Remove dust deposits on these parts which may affect the projection with a soft wash buck-skin.

    7.3.3 If the impression is not centrally displayed of the focussing screen it is possible : a) that, optic axis is not aligned with axis of main screw. Check the perpendicu larity & the centre line of the optic tube with reference to the test table and main screw. b) That, the ball holder may not be exactly vertical. Check the perpendicularity of the ball holder. Also if the springs attached to the turret are too weak then there is a possibility that turret may swievel while load is being applied. Use springs of proper stiffness.

    7.3.4 If the impression is laterally displaced on the screen, then take off the top cover and slightly turn the prism to get impression at centre.

    7.3.5 Prolonged Standstills For prolonged standstills, clean the machine thoroughly and drain the oil from oil tank.

  • BMS 3000-OB Operation

    Rev:00 11 / 30 Manual

    Preserve this oil in a can. all shining parts should be coated with anti corrosive material. The electrical supply should be cut off. Machine should be completely covered. Utmost care should be taken to prevent dust contamination with the optic parts.

    7.3.6 Labour Safety For repairs and checks of the electrical equipment, pull out the mains plug. Clamp the specimen on the supports. Bulky or projecting specimens should be supported mechanically or manually.

    Annexture ‘A’ Procedure For Checking Hardness Of Round Specimen 1. Remove lower support plate (90) from support bars (89) 2. Remove flat test table and place ‘V’ table on the extension of the main screw. 3. Place the round specimen on the ‘V’ table. The surface of the round specimen should

    be clean and free from scales. It should be polished enough to reflect the beam of light source.

    4. Adjust the height of the main screw such that surface of the specimen, viewed on the screen, is maximum clear.

    5. Take the impression as per the procedure for flat specimen (refer 6.1) 6. Impression of the specimen may be oval shaped and as such measure the diam eters

    of the impression along X-axis (horizontal) and along Y-axis (vertical). (refer 6.3)

    7. Take mean of the two diameters and by referring the enclosed charts, determine the Brinell Hardness Number of the specimen.

    8. For Production testing of indentical components of same diameter, it is advisable that the position of the main screw, once set, should not be disturbed for subsequent tests. Only the test sample should be just removed and another one to be inserted.

    Annexture ‘B’ Procedure For Changing Illuminator Bulb/Condenser Lamp 1. Unscrew the Bulb holder which is fixed to the condenser tube (44) . 2. Take back the build holder from the condenser tube. For this procedure use the left

    side window provided to the main body. 3. Unscrew bulb from the bulb holder and place a new 12 V, 80 watt bulb on the holder. 4. Tighten the new bulb to the bulb holder. 5. Place the bulb holder in the condenser tube such that the filament will be horizontal. 6. Loosen the check nut of the condenser lens (45) and adjust the condenser lens and

    bulb such that bright spot light will be focussed on the mirror (52). This can be checked by placing small piece of white paper on the hole provided on the mirror tube (51).

    7. At this position tighten the screws of the bulb holder and also check nut of the condenser lens. 8. If focussing is not possible by above method, then change slightly the position of the condenser tube. For this purpose first loosen the condenser tube clamping screw. Then move the condenser tube by adjusting condenser tube leveling screws, adjust the focus and then tighten the condenser tube clamping screws.
