With the S-20 Tungsten Carbide Tool, Taber's Shear/Scratch Tester can evaluate coating adhesion on a variety of materials. A precision cutting tool is attached to a balanced and calibrated scale beam, then placed on the specimen. As the turntable rotates the specimen, the cutting tool will shear the coating, allowing you to verify proper adhesion. By changing the load on the cutting tool, you can determine the point of failure.

The EQUOSTAT Portable Hardness Tester is a light weight, yet powerful portable hardness tester for all metallic materials.
Applications of the EQUOSTAT Portable Hardness Tester include scratch sensitive polished surfaces, hardness of the heat affected zone in weldments, sheet and coiled metals, and pieces as thin as 0.008".
The EQUOSTAT measures in a similar fashion to the Rockwell principle where penetration depth under a defined load force is measured before and after application of a larger force, i.e. the plastic deformation and, therefore, the hardness.
The EQUOSTAT then displays both the native HRZ and converted values for Rockwell, Vickers and Brinell on a large LCD display.
Mobile and accurate, the EQUOSTAT has a large measuring range - from soft to extremely hard and gives measurements in seconds.
Internal data storage of ~6,000 readings and RS-232C interface make the EQUOSTAT a powerful quality tool.

Hardness Testing Machine ZHV20/Z2.5
A single solution: This hardness testing machine enables tests according to Vickers, Brinell or Knoop. It has been built by combining the hardness test device for optical methods with a zwicki test machine. The built-in load cell permits test loads between 2 and 200 N to be applied electromechanically. The CCD camera is placed on a microscope angled at 90°. Lenses and mounting unit(s) for the indentor(s) are integrated in the revolver head so that position change between setting and measuring the indentation takes place by rotating the revolver. The revolver head is equipped with four stations, i.e. two indentors and two objective lenses can also be combined.
A testXpert® master test program includes standard tests according to Vickers, Knoop, and Brinell. Add-ons are optionally available for automatic indentation measurement and focusing as well as for hardness sequence tests with manual or motorized compound tables.
