UCI Hardness Tester NOVOTEST T-U3

Industrial inspection equipment

Overview

Ultrasonic contact impedance (UCI) hardness testers, offered by our company, use a vibrating rod with a diamond tip to measure metal hardness and are designed to handle tasks that cannot solve with the Leeb method.

Key Highlights

Hardness measurement of any mass products with a thickness more than 1 mm – inaccessible to the dynamic (Leeb) hardness testers (small parts
thin-walled structures pipes tanks steel sheets articles of complex shape hardness control of metal coatings etc.)
Measuring the hardness of the surface hardened layer
Small imprint after measuring (mirror surfaces of shafts necks blades gear teeth etc.)
Wide range of hardness testing
Various measurement modes
Calibration of any scale in any range
Convenience and ease for measurement
Optimized number of buttons
Large full color graphic display with bright back-lighting
Calibrations stored in memory of probe
Extended temperature range (frost down to – 40°C)
Internal memory and communication with PC
New intuitive menu with tips on the buttons
Optional wireless mini printer
Water resistant case
Rubber protected bumper
Has different operating modes:
Graph – the mode of building of graph
Histogram – the mode of building of histogram
Statistics – the mode of statistic
Smart – the mode of filtering of incorrect measurements
