VERIFICATION OF IMAGE ANALYSIS SYSTEMS FOR MEASURING BRINELL INDENTATIONS

Robert Ellis, Andy Knott, Konrad Herrmann

Abstract

Recently image analysis systems have become available and are now used widely in industry. While there are great benefits in using this method to measure Brinell hardness indentations, a method to verify these systems is needed. Older methods using flat stage micrometers exclusively are not sufficient. Methods and guidelines for the use of these systems should be developed.
