This portable hardness tester works with static load, according to the Rockwell principle, with preload, and test load. By applying pressure, the preload (the zero setting is carried out electronically) and test load are activated. The hardness value is shown on a large, backlit display as soon as the test is complete and the pressure removed.
Computest SC can work with all kinds of metals without changing the indenter. Starting a test is very easy, requiring only the desired scale to be selected on the keyboard and then force applied on the instrument. Minimal surface preparation is required.
