Product Description
The HK-1000Z Automatic Turret Micro Knoop Hardness Tester is designed for precise micro-indentation hardness testing of metallic materials, coatings, thin layers, micro components, and metallographic structures. It integrates optical imaging, turret rotation, force loading, dwell control, and data display into a reliable testing platform.
The instrument adopts a high-quality optical system and a large LCD screen to simultaneously display hardness values, indentation length, loading method, test force, dwell time, measurement count, and conversion results. The automatic turret system provides smooth switching between objectives and indenter, increasing testing speed and operator comfort.
Built with a one-piece casted frame, the HK-1000Z delivers superior mechanical stability, reducing deformation and improving measurement repeatability. Its precise spindle design ensures reliable indentation positioning and minimal operation error, making it suitable for laboratories, teaching institutions, and industrial quality inspection environments.

Product Advantages
High-grade optical engineering ensures clear, bright, and stable imaging, suitable for long-time observation.
The industrial LCD screen simultaneously displays hardness values, conversion values, test force, dwell time, measurement frequency, and statistical data.
The spindle mechanism is integrally formed and offers excellent stability, ensuring reliable operation and long service life.
The instrument is manufactured with rigorous quality standards, and the manufacturer provides long-term technical support and maintenance services.
The HK-1000Z performs hardness testing with high accuracy and allows measurement position switching automatically after turret rotation.
Application Range
Metals, non-ferrous alloys, hard alloys, metallic coatings, microstructural layers, electroplated layers, carburized layers, nitrided layers, thin specimens, precision components, ceramics, glasses, and composite materials.
