1. Universal hardness tester for standardized test methods such as Brinell, Vickers, Rockwell, Knoop and plastic processes.
2. Brinell, EN ISO 6506 / ASTM E10, Vickers, EN ISO 6507 / ASTM E92, Rockwell, EN ISO 6508 / ASTM E18.
3. Testing and evaluation cycle through fully automatic image analysis for Brinell and Vickers, respectively manual evaluation similar to matt screen systems.
4. Automatic focusing.
5. Testing load ranges: 9.81 N – 2450 N for type M4C 025/250 G3 or 29.4 N –7350 N for type M4C 075/750 G3.
6. Machine body made of cast iron and ergonomically designed.
7. Test anvil movement via hand wheel (M4C 025 G3/M4C 075 G3) or motor-driven test anvil (M4C 250 G3/M4C 750 G3).
8. Electronic test forces via load cell, closed loop and machine software.
9. Selection of test method, tolerance limits and testing cycle time via LCD operating surface with touch screen.
10. Objectives and indenters at the motor-driven swiveling body can be changed manually.
11. Fivefold measurement turret M4Z 600 as an option.
12. According to the test method selected, objectives with LED lighting and automatic brightness and contrast control can be stored by the software (important for various material surfaces).
13. Conversion of hardness values according to EN ISO 18265 (DIN 50150).
14. The software includes extensive data management (import/ export function) and statistics functions.
15. With the new generation of M4C hardness testing machines even the occasional testing of components is made very easy.
16. Advantages of the 3rd generation:
* Very easy to operate by optimum user guidance and self-explanatory menus.
* Easy selection of all settings via drop-down menus.
* The hardness tester automatically saves test parameters and test results.
* Clearly structured data management with efficient import and export functions.
* Report forms ready for printing via USB interface.
* Possibility to select user groups with different authorizations.
* Compatible to software ecos basis.
