Mitech MHVS-Z Series Digital Automatic Turret Vickers Hardness Tester, based on the principle that positive quadrangular pyramid diamond indenter presses the surface of thesample to produce indentation.By measuring the diagonal length of the indentation to achieve the measurement of the hardness of the material can be for small specimens, thin specimens, surface coating, heat treatment of the workpiece surface Vickers hardness test. With stable performance, strong structure, high reliability, simple operation, digital display，adopt high magnification optical measurement system, adjust the cold light source, photoelectric sensing technology and computer-aided means it has a powerful function. It is widely used in the fields of metal processing, electronics industry, mold parts, watch manufacturing, engineering quality inspection and so on. It is an ideal hardness tester for material research and testing.

Micro-Vickers (or Knoop) hardness test principle is that put the provisions of the positive pyramid diamond indenter into the sample surface(with fixed experimental force) and maintain a certain length (holding), and then unloading. Finally, there is a positive quadrangular pyramid or kenup indentation with a square surface on the surface of the specimen. Then we can attain the area of indentation via measuring the length of the diagonal by a micrometer eyepiece. Then the corresponding Vickers (or Knoop) hardness values are obtained.

l Operation Temperature：18～28℃；

l Relative Humidity：≤65％；

l In an environment free from vibration,no corrosive medium.

l Installed on a flat basis.

l Widely used in micro-specimen, thin specimen, surface coating, heat treatment of workpiece surface samples and

 etc.Vickers hardness test to meet different demands of scientific research institutions, precision machining and quality

 inspection departments and other materials research;

l Adopt automatic turret device, can be self-conversion indenter and microscopic eyepiece, high efficiency;

l ESupport Brinell, Vickers and other hardness units convert.

l Equipped with a variety of small load Vickers hardness scale spare;

l Equipped with high-speed thermal printer, real-time print test results;

l Modeling novel, strong structure, the use of diamond indenter, strong wear resistance, high reliability, intuitive readings,

 accurate measurement;

l Host stability is good, the workpiece surface quality and man-made factors on the hardness of the test results less impact;

l The use of electronic automatic loading system to control the main test force, eliminating the need to load the weight, the

 operation more convenient;

l Using large-screen LCD liquid crystal display, easy to operate, can visually display the test results;

l Using high magnification optical sensor system and high precision photoelectric sensing technology, test point positioning

 accuracy, test results more accurate;

l Adjustable cold light source measurement system, through the software to control the light source strength;

l Optional photographic device, can be achieved on the measured indentation and material microstructure to shoot for

 future analysis;

l Meet ISO 6507, ASTM E92, JIS Z2244, GB / T4340.2 and other relevant domestic and foreign standards.

l Read the manual carefully before using the instrument. Learn the operation steps and attentions to avoid damage the

 instrument or personal safety accidents caused by improper operation;

l The instrument should be carried at the bottom of the handling, to prohibit cross. Before loading, please unplug the power

 plug, fixed measuring lever and remove the weight and boom;

l Carefully remove the shockproof tape for protecting the indenter when installed otherwise the accuracy of indenter

 positioning is not high;

l The surface of the test piece should be smooth, no dirt, scale, pits and significant processing traces;

l Machine add unloading test power, it is forbidden to turn the variable load the handwheel, such as rotating dislocation can

 lead to internal gear, chaos test force, and even cause damage to items within the machine;

l Diamond indenter and indenter are the core of the instrument, the operation should be careful not to touch the pressure

 head 

l The indenter should be kept clean when used to ensure the accuracy of the test. If the indenter is stained with oil or dust

 and other stains, can be used cotton with absorbent (industrial) or ether in the top of the indenter carefully wipe clean

l When not in use for a long time should cover dust cover, in order to prevent dust into the machine interior, hardness

 block, ball head after using coated with anti-rust oil, prevent rust;

l After a long idle time, the electrical components should be preheated before testing

l Conducted at least once a year instrument verification, to ensure the accuracy of the hardness tester

l When replacing the fuse or removing the weight, turn off the power first;

l Don’t disassemble the instrument without authorization, maintenance related matters please contact MITECH after-sale service department, 4000600280
