Scope

This part of ISO 6508 specifies a method of verification of testing machines for determining Rockwell hardness (scales A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, K, N, T) in accordance with ISO 6508-1. It specifies a direct method for checking the main functions of the machine operation and an indirect method suitable for the overall checking of the machine. The indirect method may be used on its own for periodic routine checking of the machine in service. If a testing machine is also to be used for other methods of hardness testing, it shall be verified independently for each method. This part of ISO 6508 is applicable to portable hardness testing machines.
