※AIS3000 Design Principle

By comparing the difference between load-depth curves based on the presence of residual
stress, it is possible to measure values with high accuracy and reproducibility. AIS3000 can also
measure residual stress without damaging the test material, since it is indented with a depth of
less than 100 ㎛.

- Advantages

• Confirmation of the results immediately after the test
• A prompt and simple test using a wireless communication module between equipment and computer
• Can be operated on a light portable battery when the commercial power supply is not readily available

※AIS3000 Technical Skills

AIS3000 applies ISO/TR29381, as well as Korean standards (KS B0950, KS B0951, and KEPIC MDF A370). IIT was newly developed in Korea and meets the Korean Standard of Residual Stress(2005), KEPIC code (2007), and ISO/TR (2008) that were established in 2000. Thanks to its ISO certificate, AIS3000 is drawing a great deal of attention from around the world.

- Advantages of IIT

• Allows on-site testing without damaging the subject, which is only indented by approximately 100 ㎛
• Simple test preparation and procedures even for novice operators

※AIS3000 Introduction

FRONTICS’ AIS3000 V3.0 is software for new device types

Since the first introduction of AIS2000 V1.0 in 2000, the AIS software has evolved based on user opinions. Then AIS3000 V1.0 was introduced with an analysis module to analyze residual stress and fracture toughness. Our users wanted to evaluate residual stress and composition of multiple items, as well as fracture toughness. Accordingly, we introduced AIS3000 V3.0, which classifies residual stress as a basic analysis item and can add various other items for analysis.

- Features of AIS3000 V3.0

AIS3000 V3.0 classifies residual stress as a basic analysis item and evaluates tensile properties, fracture toughness, and various other items

• Evaluates various items from a single device
• Minimizes inconvenient maintenance of V2.0 by using independent software for each evaluation item
• New items can be evaluated by adding corresponding software, without purchasing additional equipment

- Data Numbering Function

The Project function that was introduced in AIS3000 V2.0 was upgraded in AIS3000 V3.0

• Enhanced Project function by introducing Data Numbering
• When testing, moving, deleting and copying unnecessary or redundant data
• When analyzing, open the Project and batch processing
• Results of Project analysis can be used for creating databases and writing reports
