CHVS-30Z Digital Auto-Turret Vickers Hardness Tester

Product Description

The CHVS-30Z Digital Auto-Turret Vickers Hardness Tester integrates optical imaging, mechanical precision, closed-loop loading control, and large-screen digital display technology into a high-stability micro-indentation platform. Its automatic turret mechanism completes the transition between observation, loading, and measurement positions with high alignment accuracy. The digital micrometer eyepiece allows direct measurement of indentation diagonals, and the hardness value is calculated automatically on the screen. With a high-strength cast-aluminum structure and engineered illumination system, the CHVS-30Z provides stable performance for microhardness evaluation of metals, coatings, and advanced materials.

Product Advantages

1. High-precision optical system engineered for micro-indent imaging delivers bright, well-defined edges; illumination intensity is adjustable for optimized contrast.

2. Large-format industrial LCD shows four-digit hardness values, diagonal lengths, dwell time (1–99 s), loading level (0.3–30 kgf), brightness, conversion scales, and test count.

3. One-piece cast-aluminum frame ensures mechanical rigidity, thermal stability, and resistance to deformation even under repeated load cycles.

4. Auto turret positioning guarantees repeatable optical alignment during each observation-to-measurement transition.

5. Closed-loop force control maintains highly accurate output across all HV0.3–HV30 force levels, improving measurement repeatability.

6. Digital micrometer eyepiece performs indentation measurement and automatic hardness calculation without manual reference tables.

7. Dual optical channels—eyepiece and CCD—support synchronized visual and digital image capture for precise documentation.

8. High optical resolution of 0.125 μm and a 400 μm measuring range enable micro-indentation analysis on thin coatings, surface-engineered layers, and precision components.

9. Optional software and printer enable automated reporting, data storage, and measurement consistency verification.
