Key Features:

 

Easy operation and automatic application of the test force 

The device operation is simple and intuitive. Users should just select the Rockwell scale, set the test force and time of the force application, and put the indenter down to the test object. After pushing the START button on the control panel, the device will apply load automatically at the preset time. When the set test force and dwell time are reached, the device will take the load off and the large dial will show the hardness value of the test object. At least 5 measurements shall be made for the best evaluation of test objects.

 

3 test methods in a single device 

The possibility to measure with 3 methods at once makes it the most versatile and suitable for almost the most diverse and in general absolutely all test objects. Also this feature of the three measuring methods in one device makes it the best choice according to the price criterion – it is much cheaper to buy a device than 3 separate devices for measurements according to 3 different methods.


Versatility for a wide range of materials 

The presence of a wide variety of scales and test forces makes this versatile analog device applicable to a wide range of materials. The range varies from non-ferrous metals such as aluminium and its alloys, brass, copper, tin to steel, cast iron, low carbon steel and tempered steel, and also the parts made of hard alloys, carbonized and chemically treated layers.

 

Comfort of use and assessment of imprints
The device has a built-in optical microscope for Brinell and Vickers measurements and easily mounts on the device. It also comes with 2 replaceable lenses with 2.5X and 5X magnification so users can choose the most comfortable lens depending on the task. The microscope has a 15x magnification so the imprints can be viewed in the smallest details for convenient, fast and accurate measurement, and the test object will be clearly visible with the external and internal backlight that installs on the microscope. The special sliding stand for the microscope allows easy moving of the test object under the microscope and measuring the imprint. This makes measurements even more comfortable.

  • Easy operation and simple build brings comfort of use
  • The presence of a wide variety of scales make the device applicable to a wide range of materials – from very soft to the hardened
  • The special movable table allows measuring imprints without removal of the test object
  • The built-in high-precision microscope with the internal and external backlight makes the analysis of imprints easy and comfortable
  • 3-in-1 solution for hardness testing by 3 different methods – Rockwell, Brinell, and Vickers
  • Special stand for the microscope, which significantly simplifies operating the device
  • An electric actuator – the main test load is completely automated
  • Allows user to maximize the efficiency of the using portable hardness testers. Using this device user can verificate standard hardness test blocks and calibrate portable hardness testers according to any of the most popular hardness scales.
