HARDNESS TESTING

Shore Hardness / Barcol / Pusey & Jones

BAREISS

The handheld type with patent grip design enhance the data repeatability, or mounted with the stand for use in the lab. Available in Shore hardness, Barcol hardness or Pusey & Jones.

Automatic type, Digi Test II, intuitive testing, simple operation in one click to obtain the accurate and consistent data regardless any operator. Uneven surface is never a problem, interchangeable for Shore, IRHD, etc.

Micro Vickers Hardness

SHIMADZU

HMV-G series micro hardness tester, the latest model features with built-in CCD camera (Monochrome / Colour) for standardized automatic length measurement.Hardness measured simply and accurately through USB linked PC software.

The fully automated (FA) series equipped electrical drive mechanism for Z Axis and X-Y Stage, with the auto focus feature. A manual machine with an optical head included in the lineup.

Rockwell Hardness

SHIMADZU

HSR Series High Accuracy & Reliability Attained by Advanced Production Technology. Intuitive operation panel design minimize operation error, automatic start loading once preload completed.

New design in focus “Usefulness and Wide Selection”

Vickers Hardness

HSV Series Vickers Hardness Testers ideal for materials labs, precise Vickers (HV) / Knoop (HK) /Brinell (HB)Fracture Toughness (Kc) measurements quick and easy. One touch selection on touch panel

Brinell Hardness

SHIMADZU

HFB series using state-of-the-art load cell technology, one of the most versatile and easy-to-use Brinell Hardness Testers. Operate through the user-friendly touchpad, virtually eliminating errors by removing knobs and stacking weights typically associated by most of other testers. Simply choose the load on the operation panel and let the tester does the rest.

Dynamic Ultra Micro Hardness [ISO/TS 19278]

SHIMADZU

A new evaluation system for measuring the material strength of micro regions, such as semiconductors, LSI, ceramics, hard disks, vapor deposited films, and thin coating layers.

This instrument uniquely measures dynamic indentation depth, not the indentation after the test. This in turn permits measurement of very thin films and surface (treatment) layers that are impossible to measure with conventional methods.
Additionally, this same method supplies the data needed to calculate elastic modulus on the test specimens.
