- The measuring head contains the intender which is generally a diamond pyramid with 136 plane angle.
- It is checked for quality under DIN EN ISO 14577-2 standards.
- Indenters with a diamond pyramid according to Berkovich or with hard metal spheres are available as well.
- The controlled touchdown of the measuring head leads to a very small machine compliance.
- The measurement of the indentation depth is carried out with a resolution in the picometer range.
- The micro hardness determination is computer controlled, free of any subjective influence, and thus independent of the operator.
Features:
- Very simple operation
- Excellent price/performance ratio: The achieved resolution and accuracy for the load and distance measurement is in the same range as that of instruments with a much higher purchasing price
- Minimal sample preparation due to large working area and open layout
- Measurements on dark surfaces without sample preparation
- For simple specimen's geometries sufficient positioning accuracy of m
- Due to its granite design, the device is extremely dimensionally stable, has a very low thermal expansion and is excellently isolated against vibrations.
- Additional vibration damping through closed measuring chamber and active anti-vibration table
- Easy operation through the customizable WIN-HCU Software
Typical areas of application are:
- Hard material coatings, general
- Ultra thin DLC coatings
- Protective coatings on glass
- Soil-resistant coatings (sol-gel coatings)
- Coatings of PC hard disks and CDs
- Very thin paint coatings
- Ion implanted surfaces
- Nanocoatings for sensors
- Medical technology (e.g. Implants)
- Matrix effects in alloys
- Biological materials
- Ceramic material
