Wilson 2001M - MicroRockwell Production Microindentation Hardness Testing System

   

The Wilson^® MicroRockwell hardness tester is a hybrid alternative to conventional microindentation testing processes. Utilizing the classic depth of penetration technique, the MicroRockwell drastically reduces microindentation testing time by eliminating time consuming visual indentation measurements.

Features

• High speed
• Fully automatic testing cycle
• 500 gf and 1000 gf test forces
• Closed loop load control method with a load cell directly connected to the indenter
• Optical encoder depth measurement technology
• Motorized, vertically moving head provides a large test space
• Fiber optic light source illuminates the test area
• Uses standard Wilson^® Rockwell, Vickers, or Knoop test blocks
• Scales displayed in HRC, HRA, HRB, Vickers and Knoop
• Standard RS-232C interface for individual or network computerization
• Simple, two-step operation
• Standard accessories include:
  • MicroRockwell Indenter
  • Universal Clamp and Leveling Device
  • Test Block
• Available with the AutoTest Assistant Plus automation option
