Automatic Turret Vickers Hardness Tester HV-10Z

Automatic Turret Vickers Hardness Tester HV-10Z

Mechanical loading Vickers hardness tester with automatic turret, high precision optical system, stable and durable, for small parts, thin materials, coatings and general metal hardness testing.

The HV-10Z is a mechanical loading Vickers hardness tester equipped with an automatic turret for fast and accurate switching between indenter and objective lens. It adopts a high-precision weight-loading system to ensure stable test force and excellent measurement repeatability. The high-definition optical microscope provides clear observation and precise reading of indentations. With reliable structure and easy operation, it is widely used in laboratories, production workshops and quality inspection departments for various metal materials, surface coatings and precision parts.
