RDP Howden has launched the new HSV-30/30T semi Vickers hardness tester with its increased test load range of 1.96 to 294 Newtons, an increase of 100 Newtons.

With this new capability, the HSV-30/30T now covers a wider range of harness measurement applications including microstructure of metallic materials, surface-hardened layers, welded or adhered sections, coated or plated layers, fine ceramics and engineering plastics.

The tester features a computerised central control system to give easy operation and high reliability, operated through a large LCD touch panel providing excellent man-machine interface.

The test procedure is automated with test force selection, specimen indentation and release, thus eliminating operator error.

The test parameter files are stored and can be processed by a variety of analytical functions including average, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, max and min values and a dispersion/histogram graphical display.

Optional features available are an automatic detection system, a length measuring system (CCD camera and monitor) and a compatible printer using the standard RS-232C output.
