Metal Hardness Tester

Metal hardness testers apply pressure to a sample using an indenter and convert the indentation size or rebound height into a hardness value. They are used to evaluate a material's resistance to deformation and are commonly employed in metal processing and post-heat treatment inspections.
Selection
When selecting, consider the characteristics and thickness of the material being tested; choose low-load methods for thin materials. Compare existing standards to select types such as Brinell, Rockwell, or Vickers. Pay attention to the flatness of the sample surface and the influence of environmental vibrations. Confirm the data output method and calibration cycle.
