Material Tester

The Ultrasonic Contact Impedance (UCI) durometer PCE-3500 has been designed for the non-destructive hardness measurement of metallic components. A 136° Vickers diamond at the probe is stimulated with its self-resonance to allow the user to very accurately measure hardness of small items, thin-walled items (>1 mm), and surface-hardened layers. Small imprint after measuring for mirrored surfaces and nitrided surfaces.

- Probe is 10 Newtons / 2.2 lbf force, 50 and 98 N probes are options
- Tests HRC, HRB, HV, HB, MPa
- Memory function via SD card and included PC software
- Large color LCD display with back lighting

The UCI hardness tester PCE-3000UL can be used for quickly checking the hardness of components even after installation, two probes are included. The device offers a wide measurement range, easy handling, robust design, and a temperature resistance up to 40 °C (104 °F). Measures hardness in Rockwell, Brinell and Vickers, the UCI hardness tester can test the tensile strength of steels up to 1740 MPa or 70 HRC. The tester comes with two probes, one UCI probe for non-destructive testing and one Leeb probe for rebound testing.

- Non-destructive hardness testing
- Ultrasonic + Leeb hardness test method
- Different hardness scales selectable
- 5 materials testable
- 2 probes for UCI and Leeb rebound testing

PCE-5000 is a portable material hardness tester that uses the ASTM A1038 ultrasonic contact impedance (UCI) method to measure the hardness of metals and alloys with a minimum thickness of 2 mm / .08 in. Non-destructive testing produces microscopic indentation.

- Measurement according to ASTM A1038 ultrasonic contact impedance (UCI) method
- Measurement units: Rockwell A (HRA), Rockwell B (HRB), Rockwell C (HRC), Brinell (HB), Vickers (HV) and MPa (N/mm²) SI units
- Measurement ranges: 61-85.6 HRA, 41-100 HRB, 20.3-68 HRC, 85-650 HB, 50-999 HV, 255-2180 MPa (N/mm²)
- Accuracy: ± 1.5 HR, ± 3% HB, ± 3% HV, Repeatability: ± 0.3%
- Memory size: 1,000 groups for measurement data and 20 groups for calibration data
- Different probe types (also automatic motorized probes) available

Material tester Hommel Etamic W10 is a portable instrument for measuring roughness. The material tester measures all common roughness variables according to international standards such as DIN EN ISO or ISO MOTIF.

- Measuring range: -210 ... 110 microns (320 microns)
- Measurement units: microns / μ inch selectable
- Max. traversing length: 17.5 mm

The Hommel-Etamic W20 skidless probe system has been designed specifically for mobile roughness measurement. It not only measures all common roughness parameters, but also evaluates the waviness and total profile of your surface. The measuring instrument is particularly compact and portable.

- Measurement range: ±300 µm
- Resolution: 12 nm*
- Total deviation according to DIN 4772: Class 1
