As an alternative to destructive testing techniques such as optical analysis or hardness depth analysis, the Fraunhofer Institute for Non Destructive Testing Technology IZFP in Germany uses a fast non-destructive ultrasonic flight time to measure the depth of the surface superhard layer (SHD). This non-destructive measurement technique utilizes the backscattered signal generated in the transition zone between the hardened layer and the substrate structure to measure the corresponding depth of the hardened layer. By utilizing the differences in microstructure between the surface hardening layer and the matrix material, combined with the frequency of backscattered ultrasound, reliable and reproducible SHD measurement results have been achieved for users.

Based on this effect, the thickness of the surface hardening layer is determined by evaluating the ultrasonic flight time between the surface echo signal and the backscattered echo signal from the transition zone. The material has a clear ultrasonic velocity, and the depth of the surface hardening layer can be directly determined. This excellent non-destructive measurement method for surface hardening layer depth has high demand in the energy industry, large-scale rolling bearing production, and truck and automotive crankshaft manufacturing industries. Our innovative technology has also entered other industries, providing users with a variety of customizable solutions.

The P3123 SHD non-destructive measurement system can fully optimize manufacturing parameters, reduce testing workload, and lower costs. By adjusting production processes in a timely manner, it can achieve rapid manufacturing control functions and good quality management, ensuring that products always have high quality.
