Hardness Testing

Equotip 550 UCI MOTO-03 & MOTO-08

The leading Ultrasonic Contact Impedance measurement system with advanced capabilities

  • Low indentation enables efficient testing of thin-coating, layers and polished surfaces
  • Ideal for lab and on-site precision micro-hardness testing
  • With good surface preparation, motorized probes are also suitable for testing thicker components

Applications:

Heat-treated surfaces / Hard Chromium/Nickel/Other Metallic Coatings / Rotogravure cylinders / Bearing race and bearings guide rail / Precision mold / Case hardening / Ion nitridated layers

Motor controlled test load application and a rugged touchscreen with enhanced software and analysis features

FAQ
What influence does the chemical composition of a certain steel group has on the UCI measurement?

For example, will the result be different on 100Cr6, 100CrMnSi6-4 or 100CrMnMoSi8-4-6 ?

All the mentioned steel compositions have similar values of Elastic modulus (E), therefore the results will not be strongly affected...

What parameters are important when choosing the right UCI Probe?

There are several important parameters that shall be taken into account when selecting the UCI probe:

Minimum thickness of the object
If a coating is tested, then also the minimum thickness of the “coating“ which...

What is the most used Load?

The HV5 (5kgf, 49.05 N) load is the most commonly used, especially within the Oil and Gas industry.

How to extend the UCI Probe's longevity?
  • NEVER impact the surface with the probe, it may damage the diamond tip
  • NEVER slide the probe along the surface after initiating a penetration, it may damage the diamond tip
  • Regular service and verification in service...
