Hardness Prime

Hardness Prime is an advanced image analysis software designed to simplify and speed up hardness testing for Vickers, Brinell, and Knoop methods. Built for metallurgical labs, research institutes, and quality control departments, it delivers precise, repeatable results with manual and automatic modes. Compatible with most microscopes and digital cameras, Hardness Prime offers a powerful yet user-friendly platform to capture, measure, and report hardness values in minutes.

Key Highlights:

Manual & Automatic Measurement Modes

Switch between manual marking for special samples or let the software auto-detect indentations for faster, repeatable testing.

Vickers Hardness Test

1. Manual: Measure diagonals by marking points on screen.
2. Automatic: Detects edges automatically for consistent results.

Brinell Hardness Test

1. Manual: Mark edges of the ball impression and measure the mean diameter manually.
2. Automatic: Auto-detects the impression edges for fast diameter calculation.

Knoop Hardness Test

1. Manual: Mark the long diagonal manually for delicate microhardness testing.
2. Automatic: Software auto-measures the diagonal for quick, accurate readings.

Camera & Live Image Control

Adjust live image settings such as white balance, brightness, contrast, hue, and saturation. Capture images in various sizes and save them in organized folders for easy access.

Calibration & Reporting

Calibrate once per objective for accurate measurements. Generate detailed reports ready for printing, sharing, or exporting to Word, Excel, or PDF.
