Sinowon Ultrasonic Hardness Testers: Non-Destructive Solution for Wheel Hardness Measurement

In automotive manufacturing and rail transportation, wheel hardness directly impacts wear resistance, fatigue strength, and safety. Traditional destructive methods (Rockwell/Brinell) fail modern industry's demand for non-destructive testing. Sinowon's SU Series ultrasonic hardness testers (SU-300H/SU-300M) deliver precision, speed, and zero surface damage - the ideal solution for wheel inspection.

Challenges in Wheel Hardness Measurement

Complex wheel structures (hubs, rims, bolt holes) made of high-strength alloys require uniform hardness distribution. Traditional methods face limitations:
✓ Destructive sampling compromises wheel integrity
✓ Low efficiency - bench testing disrupts production flow
✓ Curved surfaces - hubs/rims challenge conventional probes

Sinowon SU Series: Technical Advantages

Using Ultrasonic Contact Impedance (UCI) technology, our testers overcome wheel inspection challenges:

2.1 Non-Destructive Testing

Micro-indents (1/10 size of Vickers) invisible to naked eye. Perfect for coatings and hardened layers.

2.2 2-Second Results

60x faster than traditional methods. Real-time production line QA/QC.

2.3 Multi-Scenario Adaptability

✓ MP Series Electric Probe: Magnetic support ring auto-aligns on flat surfaces. Removable for hub grooves/rim edges.
✓ HP Series Manual Probe: 360° lightweight design for bolts/axles.

2.4 Precision & Data Management

✓ Accuracy: HV±3% / HRC±1.5 (ASTM A1038/DIN 50159 compliant)
✓ 1000-data storage + RS232/USB export for traceability

Case Studies: Wheel Hardness Inspection

3.1 Hub Case Hardening
