UNIVERSAL HARDNESS TESTERS
Universal hardness testers provide a comprehensive solution for material hardness testing, enabling users to perform Rockwell, Vickers, and Brinell tests in compliance with ISO, ASTM, and JIS standards using a single instrument. These hybrid systems do not convert hardness values between scales; instead, they execute each test according to the specific procedures defined for that scale. This eliminates the need for multiple dedicated testers and associated setup changes, resulting in significant cost savings and increased efficiency. Contemporary universal hardness testers utilize advanced load cell technology and closed-loop force feedback systems, replacing the complex mechanical structures and weight stacks of traditional models with more precise and user-friendly designs.
