Description
The durometer works with both ultrasonic contact impedance (UCI) and dynamic (Leeb) probes. User get the benefits of two methods of measurement – it is the maximum that can be obtained from a portable hardness tester.
Dynamic (Leeb) probe is used for measuring the hardness of non-ferrous metals, cast iron, coarsegrained
materials, massive products etc.
The ultrasonic contact impedance (UCI) probe is used for measuring the hardness of small items, objects with a thin wall, complex form, and to measure the hardness of surface hardened layers.
Advantages of the durometer
hardness measurement of any mass products with a thickness of 1 mm – inaccessible to the dynamic (Leeb) hardness testers (small parts, thinwalled structures, pipes, tanks, steel sheets, articles of complex shape, hardness control of metal coatings, etc.)
small imprint after measuring (mirror surfaces of shafts necks, blades, gear teeth, etc.)
measuring the hardness of the surface hardened layer
calibration of any scale in any range
