The CV arm of the Bowers Metrology Group has released the CV-405/410/430/450AAT series of Micro Vickers hardness bench-testers.

Designed for the rapid accurate testing of, amongst other materials cemented carbide, ceramics, steels, nonferrous metals, thin plates, metallic foils, plating and miniature objects, the robust yet accurate range is ideal for the routine testing of precision components or for use within research and development.

Available in a range of weights settings, the range of four high-accuracy testers covers applications such as material strength, effect of heat treatment, depth of carburised or decarburised layer and flame hardened layer, effect of hardening, hardness resulting from welding or deposition.

Each tester boasts a a high-quality microscope with an easy to read analogue scale, an integrated hardness calculator, a two-way optical path, an optical system with illumination, a diamond indenter Vickers, 10x, 20x or 5x, 10x objectives, a 15x digital eye piece, a 60mm diameter flat anvil, both large and small v-type anvils, a lever gauge and a Vickers test plate.

Optional accessories include a precision vice, an XY stage with micrometers, a video filar system, a range of certified indenters and test blocks, a CV-CCD system for (semi-)automatic transverse and pattern testing by PC support and a motorised XY stage.
