Product OverviewThe HBRV-187.5S is a digitally displayed Brinell‑Rockwell‑Vickers hardness tester that integrates optical, mechanical and electronic systems. It supports Brinell, Rockwell and Vickers testing methods in one instrument. A microcontroller‑based control system and an electronic closed‑loop loading mechanism enable automated force application, dwell and release. Indentation measurement is performed using a micrometer eyepiece while loading and force control are automated. The instrument is designed for foundries, metallurgy, forging, power generation and research laboratories.
Product Advantages- Multi‑method instrument: Brinell, Rockwell and Vickers scales with automatic switching between scales.
- Automated closed‑loop loading, load‑holding and unloading to minimise operator error.
- 8‑inch high‑resolution touchscreen for parameter setup, data storage, history recall and automatic hardness calculation.
- Multiple data interfaces including built‑in printer, RS232 and USB for local printing and external storage.
- High‑definition optical system with 2.5x/5x/10x objectives and 15x eyepiece, providing 37.5×–150× magnification for accurate indentation measurement.
