HV-30 Manual Turret Vickers Hardness Tester

Product Description

The HV-30 Manual Turret Vickers Hardness Tester is engineered for laboratories and production environments requiring stable, high-force Vickers hardness testing. The upgraded control system provides clearer data output, more accurate force control, and improved measurement repeatability. Its dual optical path allows operators to observe through the eyepiece or connect a CCD system for digital imaging, delivering high clarity under 100× and 200× magnification.

Constructed with a one-piece cast aluminum body and high-grade automotive paint finish, the HV-30 offers strong resistance to deformation, scratches, and vibration, enabling consistent accuracy even under heavy daily use. With selectable forces from HV1 to HV30, the tester supports hardness measurement of steels, alloys, surface-treated layers, coatings, carbides, and brittle materials such as ceramics and glass. The industrial display provides real-time values for hardness, diagonal length, test force, dwell time, and cycle counts, reducing operator error and improving workflow efficiency.

Product Advantages

• High-clarity optical system designed by senior optical engineers delivers sharp indentation images and allows comfortable long-term operation.

• Industrial display shows hardness value, conversion scale, dwell time, test force and test count clearly, reducing manual calculations.

• One-piece cast aluminum shell with automotive paint provides strong rigidity, deformation resistance and long-term durability.

• Lifetime spare parts support and upgrade service reduce long-term maintenance cost.

• Six selectable test forces (1–30 kgf) meet diverse hardness measurement needs across metals, coatings, hard layers and brittle materials.

• Dual optical channels with 0.5–1 μm resolution support precise observation and CCD imaging.

• XY stage with 25×25 mm travel and 0.01 mm reading enables multi-point hardness mapping and fine positioning.
