Microhardness testing
Leverage Ultrasonic Contact Impedance (UCI) technology with precise, motorized force application for reliable, repeatable results, especially on thin coatings and precision components. The new UCI MOTO probes offer: Extremely low indentation depths down to 3 μm, supporting test forces HV0.3 and HV0.8. This ensures accurate hardness measurement of delicate, functional coatings and hardened surfaces, with results comparable to bench-top Vickers testers. Automatic force application minimizes operator influence, while programmable penetration time (1-99 seconds) simulates bench-top testing conditions for various materials.
