Knoop Vickers Hardness Testers
Knoop/Vickers hardness testers are widely used for determining the hardness of small precision parts, thin material or wire, coatings, and performing case depth determinations. Knoop/Vickers testing covers the spectrum of hardness testing that is also commonly referred to as micro- or macro- hardness testing. Knoop/Vickers are common test methods for determining the hardness of a variety of samples that are too small or thin for conventional test types.
| Closed-loop control provides superior accuracy and repeatability | Accurate, user-friendly testers provide dependable and affordable solution | Hybrid instrument performs high speed, direct reading microhardness tests |
| 5-position turret allows for maximum flexibility and throughput | Manual or automatic 3 position turrets available | Optional XY stage and video for precise positioning of test point on samples |
| Closed-loop force application; test loads 10g to 50kgf | Deadweight force application; tests loads 10-1000g | Closed-loop test force for low load applications |
