Bench-top digital micro Vickers and Knoop hardness tester for metals, coatings, case-hardened layers, ceramics and thin specimens.
Overview
This is a bench-top digital micro Vickers hardness tester for measuring Vickers (HV) and Knoop (HK) hardness of ferrous/non-ferrous metals, IC wafers, coatings, heat-treated case layers, and thin small specimens such as ceramics and glass. An LCD and keypad select test force and dwell time; illumination is continuously adjustable; loading, dwell and unloading are automatic. After the indentation diagonals D1 and D2 are read on the eyepiece and entered, the hardness value is displayed directly and can be converted to HRA/HRB/HRC/HB scales. It comes with an X-Y mechanical stage and a 10X eyepiece; test magnification 400X, observation magnification 100X. Widely used in metallurgy, manufacturing, electronics and research laboratories.
Applications
• Road and highway engineering laboratory testing
• Construction material quality control and acceptance
• Research and teaching laboratories
• Third-party inspection and certification bodies
Features
• Microcomputer-controlled operation with digital display for direct readout
• Large LCD display showing real-time test parameters and results
• Robust construction suitable for both laboratory and field use
• Compliant with relevant Chinese and international testing standards
• Complete with calibration certificate and operation manual

FAQ
Q1: What standards does the Digital Micro Vickers Hardness Tester comply with?
A1: The Digital Micro Vickers Hardness Tester is designed and manufactured in accordance with relevant Chinese national (GB) and transport industry (JTG) standards, as well as applicable ASTM and AASHTO international standards. A calibration certificate traceable to national standards is provided with each unit.
Q2: How often should the Digital Micro Vickers Hardness Tester be calibrated?
A2: We recommend annual calibration by authorized technicians or by iRoad after-sales service center. For high-frequency laboratory use, semi-annual calibration is advised. The instrument is supplied with a factory calibration certificate.
Q3: What is the lead time and do you provide training?
A3: Standard units are usually shipped within 7-15 working days. Custom configurations may require 20-30 days. iRoad provides on-site installation, commissioning and operator training for major equipment; remote video guidance is available for standard laboratory instruments.
