CHVS-50Z Digital Auto-Turret Vickers Hardness Tester

Product Description

The CHVS-50Z Digital Auto-Turret Vickers Hardness Tester integrates precision optical imaging, closed-loop loading control, and a large industrial LCD interface to deliver highly reliable micro-indentation results. The closed-loop force system ensures accurate output throughout the HV0.3–HV50 range, while the automatic turret transitions between observation, loading, and measurement positions with precise repeatability. The digital micrometer eyepiece captures indentation diagonals and provides immediate hardness calculation directly on the display without manual conversion.
Built on a rigid cast-aluminum frame and engineered for optical stability, the CHVS-50Z minimizes mechanical drift and maintains consistent alignment during long-cycle testing. Its dual-channel observation—eyepiece and CCD camera—supports both real-time inspection and digital documentation, making it suitable for demanding laboratory and manufacturing environments.

Product Advantages

1. High-precision optical system designed by senior optical engineers provides bright, distortion-free micro-indent images with adjustable illumination for consistent contrast.

2. Industrial-grade LCD shows hardness values, diagonal lengths (D1/D2), dwell time (1–98 s), loading force (0.3–50 kgf), light intensity, test count, and conversion scales with high clarity.

3. One-piece cast-aluminum housing ensures structural rigidity, thermal stability, and long-term accuracy retention.

4. Auto-turret mechanism ensures repeatable optical alignment and high-precision switching among observation, loading, and measuring positions.

5. Digital micrometer eyepiece performs diagonal capture and instantly calculates hardness without manual reference tables.

6. Closed-loop loading system guarantees consistent force output, reducing operator deviation and improving test repeatability.

7. Dual optical channels (eyepiece + CCD) allow synchronized visual inspection and digital image collection.

8. High optical resolution of 0.125 μm with a 400 μm measuring range supports micro-indentation testing on coatings, metallic layers, and structural materials.

9. Optional software enables automated data storage, statistical analysis, and PC-assisted measurement.
