Vickers hardness tester

HV-5SPTA

Vickers hardness tester

The HV-5SPTA is a compact, optomechatronic micro-Vickers hardness tester that integrates a high-magnification optical measurement system with photoelectric sensing technology. It enables precise testing of small components, thin sheets, metal foils, electroplated coatings, and non-metallic materials such as glass and ceramics, accurately characterizing the hardness properties of metallic microstructures as well as surface-hardened layers like induction-hardened and carburized coatings. This makes it a versatile, high-precision, entry-level hardness-testing instrument. While indentation measurement requires manual operation using a micrometer eyepiece, the instrument features automated loading and unloading capabilities and excellent scalability, delivering outstanding performance in material microhardness analysis and industrial quality control. It is widely used in research institutions and various industrial laboratories.
