Universal Hardness Testing

Universal Hardness Testing
One Button Hardness Measurement
The hardness tester measuring head moves down until contact is made, applies the force and make the indentation. The software will move to the camera view mode where the indent is automatically measured.
Closed Loop (Pat. Affri)
Closed loop load cells control load forces with a frequency of 1 khz, assuring perfect linearity in every range. Results are not affected by any structural deflection, misalignment or vibration
Motorized Measuring Head
Automatic movements with automatic loading when contact is made. The approach of the head to the sample and not the opposite allows more accurate, scable and safe measurements.
Protected Diamond Indenter
The Affri diamond indenter has a life-span longer tanks to the special protective cup. The indenter retracts and moves down just after the test piece is clamped thereby minimizing the risk to accidental shock.
Clamping System (Pat. AFFRI)
Secure contact with the specimen is always mantained, even in the unlikely event of any specimen movement during the operation cycle. The clamping system assures perfect stability of any test piece throughout the test cycle.
Motorized Turret (Indenter/Objective)
One slot for an indenter and one slot for an objective. Auto-rotating and auto-tool-switching for a complete automatic measurement cycle.
Software LD3000AX
The preinstalled software controls the whole instrument avoiding setting errors or operators mistakes:
Powerful software for test cycle managing and automatic indent reading. Wide settings parameters for measurement setup, image adjustments, statistics and data storage.
