The new generation UCI probe U2 offers improved hardness testing by significantly reducing the operator’s influence on result repeatability. Even inexperienced users can achieve accurate measurements, thanks to advanced technology that enhances the precision of frequency change detection in the indenter.
The new generation UCI probe U2 is made in an ergonomic stainless steel housing. It has a special protective cap for the indenter and a replaceable cable that connects via a Lemo type connector. If necessary, it can be completed with a special nozzle for working with products of various shapes.
Ultrasonic contact impedance probe NOVOTEST U2 features:
HARDNESS MEASUREMENT IN NARROW PLACES AND GROOVES
With the new probe design, users can use the UCI probe U2 without a protective cap, allowing the indenter to be placed in particularly narrow spaces.
APPLICATION FOR PRODUCTS OF ANY SHAPE
The UCI method can be used to measure the hardness of metal products of almost any shape, mass or thickness.
MEASURING THE HARDNESS OF REINFORCED LAYERS AND COATINGS
Due to the minimal penetration into the material, the UCI probe makes it possible to measure the hardness of hardened layers and various metal coatings.
CONFIGURATION DEPENDING ON THE TASK
The UCI probe U2 is designed to provide the most suitable configuration for almost any hardness measurement application. With a protective cap to prevent damage to the indenter, without it for hard-to-reach places, with a nozzle for flat workpieces or for a small radius surfaces.
VARIOUS PROBE LOAD
Depending on the material, surface quality, product thickness, imprint requirements and other conditions, UCI probes of different load are used: 10N (1kgf), 50N (5kgf) and 98N (10kgf).
SPECIALIZED LONG VERSION PROBE
Thanks to the special design of the probe, the tasks of measuring hardness in particularly hard-to-reach places of products of complex shape, such as gears of teeth, deep grooves and vessels are solved.
OPTIONS FOR USING THE LONG PROBE
If necessary, it is possible to remove the nozzle from the probe, thus the user gets the maximum length of the indenter and the minimum diameter of the measuring part.
