Main Features of VIDAS 2.0
Auto measurement : With a single click, system automatically measures the indentation and gives the vickers
hardness value on screen.
Hardness curve graph : System automatically plots the hardness value vs test point depth graph and calculates the
effective case depth.
Hardness conversion, Cylindrical correction, and Validation :The measured Vickers Hardness value can be
converted to other hardness scales such as HBW, HK, HRC, HRB, etc . HVcan be corrected for non-planar surfaces.
System calculates the minimum sample thickness, minimum test point to sample edge distance, etc for validation.
Statistical Calculation :Statistical values such as average, min, max, standard deviation, Cp, Cpk, etc are automatically
generated.
Working Data saving and retrieval : Software can save and retrieve the hardness measurement data and images in data
files.
Hardness Report : With a mouse click, the system automatically generates a Microsoft Word or Excel Document or PDF
reports which contains the measurement data, statistical information, measurement images and the hardness Curve
graph. User may enter own additional information for reporting.
Standard Features
Image/Video capturing : Software can capture and save images/videos on Direct Show compatible USB cameras.
Geometry measurement : System provides the tools to draw and measure common geometric shapes such as lines,
angles, rectangles, arcs/circles, ellipses, polygons, point-to line, and point-to-arc, etc. With a mouse click, system
generates a Word document for the geometry measurements.
Calibration : For measurement applications, the camera can be calibrated with a stage micrometer ruler or grid.
Calibration management : Software allows user to save/manage multiple calibrations as per machine’s magnification.
Image processing : Software provides a rich set of image processing tools for advanced applications, which include
adjusting Brightness, Contrast, Gamma, Histogram Level, Sharp, Smooth, Invert, and Convert to Grey functions.
On grey scale images, system provides various advanced tools in filtering and finding edges, as well as some standard
tools in morphological operations such as open, close, dilation, erosion, and flood fill, etc.
