Vickers Hardness Testing Machine

Features

• Tiny indentation allows the testing of precision finished parts.
• The thin sheet metal is perfectly tested. Because the applied load is very small.
• Motorized loading and unloading cycle.
• Built-in projection screen to get accurate results.
• The same hardness number is obtained on the same specimen, regardless of the load applied.
• Wide testing range, from a soft metal such as lead, Upto the hardest, like hardened steel.

Construction

To accommodate the high precision loading system & an optical projection screen, the machine frame is designed sturdy. The specimen is placed on a testing table. The test cycle is fully automatic. The accurate load is applied to a diamond penetrator by means of a lever & weights. The load is removed automatically after a specific lapse of time. The objective is indexed with the test piece & the diamond indentation is projected on the measuring screen. The diagonals of the indentation can be measured by means of the micrometer screw of the projection screen.
