The purpose of dynamic hardness measurements is to determine the resistance of a material to permanent deformation when a specific force is applied.
Traditional hardness testing methods involve applying a static force, while dynamic hardness testing measures the response of a material to a continuously varying load.
Dynamic hardness measurements provide more accurate and reliable results compared to traditional methods. They also allow for testing of a wider range of materials, including softer materials.
Dynamic hardness measurements can be used to test a variety of materials, including metals, plastics, ceramics, and composites.
In dynamic hardness testing, a load is applied to the material at a constant rate, and the resulting indentation depth is recorded. The hardness value is then calculated based on the indentation depth and the applied load.
