The IMPRESSIONS pattern editor allows the user to create any number of test patterns with a large
number of variable settings. Create test patterns with great precision and freedom. Verify the settings
in the preview mode. Drag & drop patterns from one test sample to the other test sample. Live vision
test results overview and print out. An important function for later sample analyses.

For those requiring more in depth knowledge on materials
behavior, and wish to study on fracture and fatigue, crack
growth can be predicted (and measured) by using the Kic
application. The software supports Kic crack detection
under load. At choice, one of both methods, Palmqvist or
Median / Radial fracture toughness can be selected.
The optional application “Plane hardness chart“, also
referred to as Color Mapping is the perfect tool for securing
the detail of the hardness distribution over the total cross
section, especially of heat treated samples. An important
feature in material exploration, weld testing or in damage
analysis.
Besides the option to display a 2D graphic diagram,
the system can generate a 3D visual.
2D and 3D hardness chart are one application.
For repeating jobs, IMPRESSIONS
TM
utilizes
the option of setting up and storing custom
test programs. For each task, a ‘’job’’ can be
created. All application specific parameters,
like hardness scale, force, dwell-time, pattern,
conversion and the report template are
stored in the same program.
The report generator offers to design
customized testing reports, including
your company’s details and logo and
include testing results, graphics and
pictures of indentations in an easy to
edit environment. The file can be printed
straight to a connected laser printer for
further distribution. Alternatively the file
can be exported as a CSV file, to be used
in MS Office applications or 3rd party
quality assurance software.
This handy function in IMPRESSIONS
TM
allows you to make screen captures of
the viewing area. It gives the opportunity
to store such images with comments or
to paste them into the report generator
for further processing.
