HM-200 Series
High-Precision Micro Vickers Hardness Testing Machines
Microhardness
Advanced Automated Hardness Testing with Integrated Imaging and Precision Control
These models perform multi-point and average hardness evaluations without the need for external data processors. The 5.7-inch color touchscreen display provides high visibility and allows the unit to operate easier.
Feature motorized force selection from 1-50 kgf or .3 to 30 kgf.
A dual-line filar eyepiece combined with a color touch-screen LCD to create accurate measurements with the touch of a button.
The motorized turret can accommodate up to 3 long working distance objective lenses for an even wider range of materials and a wide variety of anvils and x-y stages are also available.
Digital output streams measurement data into software or spreadsheets LED illumination provides better visibility of specimen without producing heat.
The Type B/D models feature a high-resolution 3 mega-pixel camera that produces crisp images that are automatically measured in less than three seconds. The Mitutoyo AVPAK is the dedicated image analysis software which offers automated indentation reading with excellent automatic edge detection capability, thus eliminating reading variations and visual errors.
Type B hardness testers have computer controls, providing more accurate and repeatable measurements Type D hardness testers have a motorized X-Y stage with up to 100 mm x 100 mm travel for large samples Motorized focusing platform on Type D models provide a complete walk away system Various software functions such as automatic light intensity, simple to use report generator and programming wizards make tedious and repetitive testing requirements more accurate than manual testing and eliminates common operator errors.
Each model is available with an optional PC.
Features
- Utilizes an advanced electromagnetic (voice coil) method to set and maintain highly accurate test forces ranging from 0.4903 mN to 19610 mN.
- Features a 5.7-inch color LCD touch-screen on manual models that supports intuitive operation, statistical calculations, and hardness scale conversions.
Offers specialized software for System B and D models that automates indentation measurement, pattern creation, and comprehensive report generation.
Equipped with an LED optical unit that provides a consistent light source while reducing power consumption and maintenance compared to traditional bulbs.
Employs a 3-million pixel color USB camera or a high-magnification video camera unit to ensure precise indentation reading and reduced operator error.
Supports the automatic switching of up to four objective lenses and two indenter shafts via PC software or the touch-panel interface.
