Vickers Hardness Tester

• Testing range is very wide, from soft metal such as lead up to the hardest, like hardened steel
• Thin sheet metal is perfectly tested because the load applied is very small
• Same hardness number is obtained on the same specimen, regardless of the load applied.
• Built in projection screen to get accurate result

Vickers as well as Vickers cum Brinell Hardness Testers are suitable for Vickers and Brinell hardness of steel and other metals. These machined are designed and manufactured for very high accuracy, reliability and ease of operation. The selection of load is effected with the push button control system. The measurement of diagonal / diameter of indentation is done with the help of built-in optical system with graduated readout with micrometer. After taking indentation on the work piece, the objective lens is automatically swivelled into position and image of indentation appears on the focusing screen fitted in front of the machine. A push button is provided for starting the loading cycle and unloading is accomplished though hand lever.

This machine conforms to IS:1754-1986 for Vickers and IS: 2281-1983, BS: 240 for Brinell Test.
